Pelco FTD4M1ST 4-Channel Fiber Data Transmitter

Pelco FTD4M1ST 4-Channel Fiber Data Transmitter

The Pelco FTD4M1ST is a 4-channel bidirectional fiber data transmitter engineered for RS-485/RS-422 serial command transmission over multimode fiber. This accessory enables simultaneous PTZ control, alarm signals, and serial commands across four separate channels using a single fiber strand per channel, making it ideal for extended-distance surveillance deployments where electrical isolation and EMI immunity are critical.

Key Features

• 4-channel bidirectional data transmission over multimode fiber
• RS-485/RS-422 half-duplex protocol support
• ST simplex fiber connectors for secure, industry-standard termination
• Simultaneous PTZ, alarm, and serial command support
• Multimode fiber capability up to approximately 2 km
• NDAA Section 889 compliant for government installations
• Flexible deployment at camera or controller end

Technical Highlights

The FTD4M1ST supports bidirectional half-duplex RS-485 protocols, allowing efficient data flow over single fiber strands. Its multimode fiber design suits campus networks and intra-building installations with extended range capabilities. The unit integrates seamlessly with Pelco camera systems and professional surveillance architectures. Verify your installed fiber termination uses ST connectors before ordering to ensure compatibility.

System Requirements

Pair this transmitter with the complementary FRD4M1ST receiver at the monitoring location—both units are required to establish a complete bidirectional link. For single-channel applications, the more economical FTD1M1ST offers reduced cost. For integrated video and data transport over fiber, evaluate the FSV/FTV transceiver series.

Warranty & Support

Backed by a 1-year warranty and supported through Pelco's authorized distributor network, this product is built for enterprise-grade reliability in commercial and industrial surveillance applications.
