LASER CLASS 1M PRODUCT
APPAREIL A LASER DE CLASSE 1M
LASER KLASSE 1M PRODUKT
Caution
!
A Class 1M laser is safe for all conditions of use except when passed through magnifying
optics such as microscopes and telescopes. Class 1M lasers produce large-diameter beams,
or beams that are divergent. The MPE for a Class 1M laser cannot normally be exceeded
unless focusing or imaging optics are used to narrow the beam. If the beam is refocused,
the hazard of Class 1M lasers may be increased and the product class may be changed. A
laser can be classified as Class 1M if the total output power is below class 3B but the power
that can pass through the pupil of the eye is within Class 1.
Do not view directly with optical instruments into the beam.

1.6 About MediorNet
MediorNet – real-time Network for Video, Audio, Data & Communications
MediorNet unleashes the true potential of fiber-optic signal transport, which will finally result in a completely new
philosophy for broadcast, event, stadium and campus installations.
MediorNet is the next step forward in fiber-based signal transport.
It combines
· Signal transport,
· Signal routing,
· Signal processing and conversion
into one integrated real-time network solution.
MediorNet offers a real network solution providing more than just simple point-to-point links. This includes signal
routing, allowing the user to send any incoming signal to any output or even to multiple outputs with just a
mouse-click or, even more conveniently, by using a router control system. As a result, MediorNet increases the
flexibility of any installation while significantly reducing cabling and set-up time. MediorNet eliminates the need
for re-wiring when production setups change.
MediorNet also includes integrated broadcast-quality processing and conversion features like Frame-Store /
Frame-Synchronizers and Embedders / Deembedders at any input / output. These features are software-based so
they can easily be expanded in the future without any hardware changes. Ultimately, this will eliminate the need
for external devices. All this results in a completely new approach to production environments, providing
significant savings in infrastructure investments.
The MediorNet product line includes MN-MicroN-UHD, MN-MicroN, MN-MetroN, MN-Compact and MN-Modular.
· MN-MicroN-UHD is an 12G SDI Breakout
· MN-MicroN is an 3G SDI Breakout and the functionality can be changed by using different apps:.
· MN-MetroN is a 10G/4.25G central routing engine.
· MN-Modular is a completely modular system that can be tailored to meet the customer's demands and the
exact application needs, while MN-Compact is a cost-effective all-in-one box solution.
The MediorNet product line MN-Modular as well as the MN-Compact versions BASIC and Plus are discontinued,
but still supported.
Of course, all models are 100% compatible and can be easily networked within the same installation.
