Abstract
Described is an electro/optical system for transmitting video information. The system includes a transmitter assembly interconnected via a fiber optic assembly to a receiver assembly. The transmitter assembly includes a circuit arrangement which generates a data stream of analog signals interspersed with control pulses. The data stream is transmitted through the fiber optic assembly. Changes in the control pulses are detected at the receiver and are used to adjust the gain of a video amplifier.
