iOi

Encoder/Decoder

The iOi encoders and decoders enable information transmission over IP and create an easy transfer of data from any source to a selected destination. The iOi boxes are designed for simplicity, flexibility and safety in digital operating theatres. They are conceived for FULL HD and 4K.

The digital operating room

In order to be able to perform the various procedures within the OR track, a wide variety of equipment trolleys are needed. These range from the C-arm, endoscopy tower, microscope to neuronavigation. In addition to the various functionalities, the different video signals with various connection options are a particular challenge. The focus is on usability as well as flexibility, ease of maintenance and hygiene. For this reason, Rein Medical developed the iOi family consisting of hydride encoders and decoders with uniform hybrid plugs as connections.

Plug & Play

The iOi box has an easy-to-use hybrid connector that allows modalities to be connected quickly, simply and flexibly.
It supplies the iOi with operating voltage via copper cables and transmits data via fiber optics.
With the installation of our iOi hybrid patch sockets, we have developed a very user-friendly solution, as each mobile source/sink is connected to the system exclusively via the hybrid plug.
The high quality and performance of this plug & play method is suitable for demanding medical environments.
When changing the source/sink during operation, no synchronization is necessary, nor does it take much time.
This is because SMART OR saves the last configuration and maintains it.

The Concept

Hybrid multi-converters are positioned on the mobile trolleys and serve as transfer points of the image management system. Mobile trolleys can be both an imaging source and a sink (monitor, conference, documentation). After the converter is connected via the hybrid connector, the functionality is recognised and fed to the system as the corresponding device. With their universal connectors, the iOi boxes stand for user-friendliness, flexibility and safety in digital operating theatres. They are designed for both FULL-HD and UHD landscapes.

Encoder

The versatile iOi encoders convert both analog and digital video signals into a proprietary IP signal.
Furthermore, trigger/control signals as well as status and naming are embedded.
The data packets reach a room-based IP switch via fiber optic cables.
Only the video signal is made available to the corresponding decoders via our integration software, Smart OR.
All additional information is evaluated via Smart OR.

Decoder

If SMART OR MANAGER is installed as a central communication node within a video management integration, it can be used to connect the iOi box. The data connection can be used to the PACS, KIS, RIS and other subsystems via DICOM or HL7 and enables uncomplicated data exchange.

Connection possibilities

If SMART OR MANAGER is installed as a central communication node within a video management integration, it can be used to connect the iOi Box.
The data connection can be used to the PACS, HIS, RIS and other subsystems via DICOM or HL7 and enables uncomplicated data exchange.

Hygienic

The housing is powder-coated with the germicidal POLYFLEX® STERIDUR || powder coating, is closed all round and can be disinfected hygienically.
It has no ventilation slots.

Future-proof

Our tried-and-tested iOi solution offers a reliable connection via fiber optic cable.
This future-proof technology ensures fast transmission with bandwidth reserves.
In addition to video and image signals, bidirectional audio and RS232 control signals such as triggers can also be transmitted.

Easy to maintain

Both video signals and triggering signals (e.g. on the camera head – endoscopy) are transmitted via the one-hand connector system.
A preview of the desired source appears, which can be provided with additional information (e.g. name of the source).
It is not only the hybrid plug that makes the iOi-Box so easy to use, the LED status display of the transmission system also ensures transparency and therefore safety regarding the current status of the device.
As additional conversions are largely dispensed with, simple troubleshooting is guaranteed in the event of servicing.
