Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device that encodes digital signals representing image data captured by a video camera and provided according to a 4K ultra-high definition (4K-UHD) standard. The digital signals are transmitted as serial digital interface (SDI) streams to a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) unit; the WDM unit performs electrical-to-optical conversion of the SDI streams and outputs a multiplexed signal to a single fiber-optic cable. The video camera, encoding unit, and WDM unit form a combined module within a housing; the device connects to a proximal end of a single fiber-optic cable, and a distal end of the single fiber-optic cable is configurable for connection to a demultiplexer of a 4K-UHD video presentation device. The multiplexed signal is transmitted on the single fiber-optic cable unidirectionally from the proximal end to the distal end. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 18):
A system comprising:\n a first device for capturing and sending image data; a second device for receiving and presenting the image data; and a single fiber-optic cable connecting the first device and the second device, wherein the first device comprises a first processing system including a first processor and a first memory that stores first executable instructions that, when executed by the first processing system, facilitate performance of operations comprising: encoding a first plurality of digital signals representing the image data captured by a video camera, wherein the encoding is performed by an encoding unit coupled to the video camera, wherein the video camera provides the image data in accordance with a high resolution standard; and transmitting the first plurality of digital signals to a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) unit coupled to the encoding unit, wherein the WDM unit outputs a multiplexed signal comprising a plurality of wavelengths to a first cable connector; wherein the video camera, the encoding unit, and the WDM unit form a combined module within a housing of the first device, and wherein the first cable connector is configured for connecting to a proximal end of a single fiber-optic cable; wherein a distal end of the single fiber-optic cable is configured for connection to a second cable connector of the second device, and the multiplexed signal is transmitted on the single fiber-optic cable unidirectionally from the proximal end to the distal end; wherein the second device comprises a second processing system including a second processor and a second memory that stores second executable instructions that, when executed by the second processing system, facilitate performance of operations comprising: receiving the multiplexed signal at the second cable connector; and transmitting the multiplexed signal to a wavelength-division demultiplexing unit coupled to the second cable connector, wherein the wavelength-division demultiplexing unit provides four optical signals and performs optical-to-electrical conversion of the optical signals to generate a second plurality of digital signals representing the image data for presentation at a display of the second device.
