Posted by Johnnie Sanchez on 2016-05-11 Buzzword:Bonjour—Bonjour is Apple's version of the Zero Configuration Networking (Zeroconf) standard, a set of protocols that allows certain communication between network-connected devices, applications and services. Bonjour is often used in home networks to allow Windows and Apple devices to share printers. Back Porch—The time in a composite video signal that is between the trailing edge of the sync pulse and the trailing edge of the blanking pulse (before the video information). Also see "Blanking." Backbone—The primary transmission network for telecommunications that connects between key locations and branches off to buildings and other facilities. Backreflection—Light within an optical fiber that is reflected back toward the source. This typically occurs at interfaces between the fiber and...
Posted by Johnnie Sanchez on 2016-05-14 Buzzword:EDID—Extended Display Identification Data-EDID is a data structure used to communicate video display information, including native resolution and vertical interval refresh rate requirements, to a source device. The source device will then output the optimal video format for the display based on the provided EDID data, ensuring proper video image quality. This communication takes place over the DDC – Display Data Channel. It's what enables a modern personal computer to know what kinds of monitors are connected to it. EAV—End of Active Video. A digital code used with digital component video signals, marking the end of a video line. EBU—European Broadcasting Union. A European organization of broadcasters which among other...
Posted by Johnnie Sanchez on 2016-05-15 Buzzword: Frame Rate—The frequency at which an imaging device produces unique, consecutive images called frames. The term applies equally to computer graphics, video cameras, film cameras, and motion capture systems. Frame rate is most often expressed in frames per second (FPS) and sometimes in progressive scan monitors as hertz (Hz). It can also be seen as refresh rate or vertical scan rate. F connector—A type of plug used for RF video connections, such as those used to connect TV antennas and cable TV to televisions and VCRs. Fabry-Perot-FP—A standard laser diode that uses a laser oscillator comprised of two mirrors with an amplifying medium between them. F Connector—A type of plug...
Posted by Johnnie Sanchez on 2016-05-16 Buzzword:Gigabit—A unit of information equal to one billion or 10^9 bits. It's commonly used for measuring the amount of data that is transferred in a second between two telecommunication points. Gain—(1) A general term for an increase in signal power or voltage produced by an amplifier. The amount of gain is usually expressed in decibels above a reference level. Opposite of attenuation. (2) The amplification of a signal, unit, or system. Expressed in the unit of measurement appropriate to the signal or system. (3) In fiber optics applications, the measurement of back reflections using an OTDR - Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, due to a mismatch in core sizes between...
