CCTV TRANSMISSION TECHNOLOGY FOR SPACE SHUTTLE
SUPPORTS LOW-COST SECURITY INSTALLTION

The VTTi passive CCTV video adapter range reduces the time and cost of installing CCTV and other communications networks and is used in the Space Shuttle programme. VTTi converts video data signals for transmission through a UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair), such as a standard telephone cable, rather than conventional and more expensive coax cabling. AVE, American Video Equipment now has launched VTTi in Europe, following its acquisition of manufacturer Visions Televideo Technologies Inc in the USA.

The VTTi’s IC201 video adaptor chip has been approved for use by NASA, and is specified in the Space Shuttle programme, to transmit video from cameras located in the pay-load bay and remote-arm areas of each vehicle. The chip, which meets ISO-9001 and US military specifications, was selected because of the high quality of the transmitted images. Its use enables the shuttle designers to replace coax with much lighter UTP and reduce pay-load weight.

VTTi products are passive, requiring no external power supply, and each installation features two units, to send and then receive the signal over distances from 800 ft up to 3,000 ft, for the top of the range VTT5000. They allow transmission of colour and black & white images, as well as pan, tilt and zoom signals and sound.

Installers can often utilise existing UTP telephone cabling in buildings, and the system offers excellent noise immunity, according to AVE, American Video Equipment director Mark Bradley. Signals from all common video sources – such as NTSC, SECAM and PAL - will travel effectively over UTP.
