Video Optical Transceiver·📅UpdatedMay 12, 2026·✍️管理员

The IDM VHD6000/16H Series Audio/Video Optical Transceiver supports real-time, synchronized, and lossless transmission of high-definition and ultra-high-definition high-quality images. Due to the adoption of digital fiber optic transmission technology, the transmission distance for high-definition images is longer, with strong anti-interference capability and larger transmission scale. This series is divided into two categories: the HD series supports 1080P@60Hz and provides interconnectivity among HDMI, DVI, VGA, and SDI interfaces. The IDM VHD6000/16H Series Audio/Video Optical Transceiver supports transmission of 16 channels of HDMI high-definition video and 16 channels of audio, while also supporting simultaneous transmission of various data such as data, Ethernet, IO, IR, USB, telephone, and E1. This series adopts JPEG2000 compression technology.

I. Product Overview

The IDM VHD6000/16H Series Audio/Video Optical Terminal employs JPEG2000 lossless compression technology and supports real-time synchronous, lossless transmission of HD and Ultra HD high-quality images. Thanks to digital fiber optic transmission technology, HD image transmission distance is extended, anti-interference capability is enhanced, and transmission scale is larger. This series is divided into two categories: the HD series supports 1080P@60Hz and provides interconnectivity among HDMI, DVI, VGA, and SDI interfaces.

The IDM VHD6000/16H Series Audio/Video Optical Terminal supports 16 channels of HDMI HD video and 16 channels of audio transmission, while also supporting simultaneous transmission of multiple data types such as data, Ethernet, IO, IR, USB, telephone, and E1. Due to the adoption of JPEG2000 compression technology, this series enables point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, multipoint-to-multipoint, and one-transmit-multiple-receive transmission modes, and is widely used in multimedia video conferencing, teaching recording and broadcasting, multimedia exhibition halls, advertising media, multi-screen interaction, and many other fields.

u RS-485 data interfaces can be cascaded. When multiple RS-485 devices need to be connected (e.g., multiple PTZ cameras), the RS-485+ terminals of all RS-485 devices can be tied together with the RS-485+ terminal of the optical transceiver, and the RS-485- terminals likewise tied together. The RS-485 devices will operate normally if they are equipped with a decoder board (PTZ cameras generally include one).Note
