What is this BS EN 62300 - Digital interface with plastic optical fibre about?
BS EN 62300 discusses consumer audio/video equipment digital interface with plastic optical fibre. BS EN 62300 specifies the principal electrical and optical parameters for a consumer audio/video equipment digital interface that uses plastic optical fibre (POF).
BS EN 62300 discusses a digital interface that covers audio and/or video and accompanied data systems for consumer audio/video equipment and multimedia systems in bi-direction, mainly used for audio equipment, TV-set, D-VCR, etc. The environmental conditions for the digital interface are mainly defined in other standards for the individual units.
Who is BS EN 62300 - Digital interface with plastic optical fibre for?
BS EN 62300 on digital interface with plastic optical fibre is useful for:
- Manufacturers of products that provide audio output (televisions, phones)
- Audio equipment manufactures
- Audio programmers
- Music producers
- Sound technicians
- Recording and dubbing studios
- Regulatory bodies
Why should you use BS EN 62300 - Digital interface with plastic optical fibre?
A wide-band POF introduces a high-speed digital interface between consumer audio/video equipment. An optical connector is about half the size of the conventional PN connector, whose size is suitable to SFF size.
The digital interface specified in BS EN 62300 uses wide-band POF that includes both the multi-layer type and the graded index type. These features provide an optical signal speed of up to 500 Mbit/s and a single hop distance of up to 50 m. By using this interface, the highspeed digital signals which include audio/video signal and multimedia data are transmitted simultaneously. It is further possible to realize consumer audio/video equipment platform and/or multimedia systems with low cost and high performance. Using BS EN 62300 guidelines will help you with the transmission of audio and video data
