Enhanced functionality that is available now, or scheduled to launch in the near future, includes up & down conversion, A/V processing, compression, and support for multi-viewers. An optional mid-board section allows third-party vendor technology to be integrated into the platform, guaranteeing its longevity, plus functionality is upgraded constantly making it resistant to obsolescence.

The multi-range / multi-format BTF1-41 (https://media.barnfind.no/marketing/2018/Flyer%...) is 12G capable, includes a built-in GPIO, Tally and UMD control.  The frame features BarnStudio (https://www.barnfind.no/control/), Barnfind's control software, and also offers the same flexible third-party control as the existing BarnOne (https://www.barnfind.no/products/) 3G system.

NEW BarnMini-22

BarnMini-22 offers full built-in management of reclockers and signal control via BarnStudio and is capable of supporting any signals up to 12G. Barnfind is one of the very few manufacturers that offers a small unit with 2 x SFP for protocol agnostic signal conversion. BarnMini-22 is perfect for numerous applications, especially high-end CCTV/surveillance cameras.

BarnOne Stage Box Break-out panel system (https://www.barnfind.no/stagebox/)
Barnfind's new Stage Box Break-out panel simplifies installations and makes them safer and more flexible. A must for any AV project, it allows front panels to be customized based on the required connectors. A selection of eight modules serve as connection points to one or more BarnOne and BarnMini units, it also could be used independently for any 3^rd party products and installations.

Unique HiLo SFP system for 36-Channel CWDM
Barnfind HiLo SFPs are designed to meet the need for higher density of signals in one single fiber. By using half of the spacing in each wavelength of the CWDM range, the HiLo SFPs can double the capacity of the traditional CWDM bi-directional transmission enabling a total of 18 bi-directional links (resulting in 36 channels on one single fiber).

BTF1-10-AA
BTF1-10-AA (https://www.barnfind.no/barnone/barnone-btf1-10AA/) offers 8x analog audio input, 8x analog audio output converted to/from MADI.  The frame includes the standard main board with 16 x SFP ports and 8 x BNC top board included and offers the same functionality as all BarnOne frames. The BTF!-10AA is a powerful MADI router with analog interface and MADI as a fiber transport medium.

Now with Ember+
Barnfind has added support of the Ember+ control protocol to the Company's extensive portfolio of management vendors. This development allows 3^rd party control platforms access to all functionalities and features of the BarnOne series.

Signal Redundancy Switch
Barnfind's latest firmware release includes significant added functionality via an integrated signal redundancy switch that can be configured for all BarnOne's outputs. Regardless of signal format, bandwidth, optical or electrical, each individual output can be configured with "alternative" inputs and can all run in parallel or individually.

Protocol agnostic transport through one fiber
Barnfind's  transport solution (https://www.barnfind.no/camera-to-ccu-using-hil...) supports any digital protocol, whether electrical or optical. The sophisticated and compact system eliminates the need for heavy and expensive cabling by allowing up to 36 signals traveling through one single mode fiber over distances up to 80km (50 miles).
