558 AMG Systems has launched the 5800/5900 series of hybrid products, which are available both as standalone and as rackmount. The company claims that its groundbreaking 5000 series is the only hybrid fibre-optic transmission product available on the market which allows the transmission of both analogue and IP video, three bi-directional data channels and eight contact closures on one single-mode fibre.

According to Sara Bullock, international sales director, the background for developing this new series is a huge increase in projects where multiple technologies, IP and low-speed data interfaces are required alongside analogue video from roadside positions.

AMG has also announced its new 6100 series, which provides transmission of up to eight video channels along with one low-speed data channel and can be configured in either a single-fibre 'drop and insert' topology or linear spurs. The company says this approach provides for significant cost savings on infrastructure, installation and maintenance without any increase in equipment cost. It can be configured to collect individual or multiple video signals, for example around a site perimeter, city centre or facility in a 'daisy chain', and transmit them all back to one or multiple control rooms or drop-off sites. A new key feature in the product range is the sophisticated built-in LED diagnostics which enable the location of a fibre breakage to be identified easily from any position within the loop.
