WHY FIBER OPTIC?
SmartAVI has created a full line of fiber optic extender products, understanding that this technology is su-
perior to traditional cabling.
Fiber optic cables are:
 Capable of transmitting over very long distances with no signal loss.
 Immune to electromagnetic interference. In situations where there is considerable interference, fiber
optic cabling is the only solution.
 Much more secure because they cannot be easily tapped. For this reason, military and law enforce-
ment agencies use fiber optic cables for the transmission of sensitive data.
 Relatively inexpensive and small enough to be routed through small spaces.

APPLICATIONS
 Corporate or Educational Presentations
 Financial (Remote Servers/User Control)
 Call Centers
 Industrial (Long-Range Workstation Isolation)
 Information Terminals/Kiosks
 Airport Installations (Air Traffic Control/Passenger Information)
 KVM Extension where Exceptional Quality of Signal is Crucial
 Medical (Remote Operation Away from Sensitive/Magnetic Equipment)
 Recording (for Large Studios where Editing/Mixing Stations are Compact and/or Require Complete
Silence)
