Well before distance learning became a necessary part of modern educational offerings, video, audio, and data played a critical role in supporting teaching, administrative, and other vital activities.
The ability to leverage Fiber Optic cables to move these signals around greatly enhances what Universities can do with existing equipment and infrastructure — particularly for colleges and universities spread across larger campuses, or even multiple locations.
Across classrooms, labs, lecture halls, housing, sports venues, campus communications, administrative offices, campus security, and other campus facilities, fiber optic transport brings video, audio, and data to students, faculty, and staff when and where they need it.
Providing robust and reliable fiber optic transmission solutions for virtually every type of signal, from 4K/3G/HD/SD-SDI to composite video, DVI and RGBHV, with versions supporting multimode and single-mode fiber, Artel’s FiberLink product family has supported a wide array of educational institutions in implementing high-quality media and data transport.
Because they’re affordable and easy to deploy, FiberLink products make it easy to leverage fiber networks to move signals between buildings and across campus.
University systems use FiberLink products to backhaul classroom content to a Studios take recordings of classroom lectures to provide on-demand access by students from anywhere at any time; Or to transport Security Camera and other sensor data to master control rooms and server areas for subsequent use.
Sports facilities across university and college campuses likewise use FiberLink to connect back to in-house production studios. A football stadium, basketball arena, baseball field, and other venues can easily send multiple SDI feeds — increasingly 4K video — to the centralized production area for broadcast or streaming.
For those universities that rent rather than own their fiber links, FiberLink offers the advantage of multiplexing SDI signals over fewer fiber strands. Reducing their rental costs, institutions can reduce the overall cost of media and data transport.
Artel continually develops its products to accommodate the latest requirements in video, audio, and data transport. Educational institutions are taking advantage of this trusted product range to extend their own capabilities in supporting richer teaching and learning experiences across their campuses and beyond.
