AMG Release Range of Fiber Transmission Products
AMG Systems of the United Kingdom and USA introduces the industry’s most innovative new fiber optic video, data and contact closure line available today. AMG sees an application for these new fiber optic products to support a new generation of multi-megapixel coaxial cameras with the need for ultra-high security. The AMG Fiber optic transmission line is not IP-based, disallowing any potential security risk into the network, in addition, there is no latency due to no encoding used as with an Ethernet system. The introduction of the AMG fiber optic line is the first advancement in many years and will set the standard for years. The AMG line consists of fiber optic video, video, and data, serial data, and contact closure products for signal transport using the benefits of fiber optic media.

Steve Clarke, AMG's Managing Director, said, “Although legacy fiber optic transmission systems are being replaced by IP, there are thousands of fiber optic transmission networks still in use. With the push toward, IP, no real effort has been directed toward modernizing traditional fiber optic video and data products. This next generation of AMG fiber optic products is a major step forward. Completely new, with modern available components, now made in our ISO9001 certified facility, AMG fiber optic products are a great combination of quality, availability and still extremely cost-effective compared to what’s out there,” Clarke concluded.
Tom Exley, AMG Technical Director adds “The AMG fiber optic transmission product line continues our quality standard. Our engineering team looked at what was currently available, identified weaknesses, and engineered our fiber optic product line to overcome those weaknesses. One of the big issues facing the competition is parts availability. Competing fiber optic products were developed 15-20 years ago, sourcing 20-year-old components is a challenge, and that’s likely the reason for extended production delays and price increases. The AMG line is all new. New designs, and new components and now manufactured in an ISO9001-certified facility. And, most importantly, they are available when you need them. We believe in the quality and stand behind them with lifetime support.”
AMG believes having products in stock, being fully supported by the AMG design team, and being covered by the AMG Lifetime Warranty gives AMG customers worldwide a measurable advantage in today’s competitive marketplace.
