Multidyne's other new product, the HalfCuBE, is a portable fiber optic field transport system that can handle up to 40 channels on a single fiber, with support for a wide range of video and audio, ranging from composite to HD. It portable unit stands at 7 inches and can be run off batteries or AC power.
