Cablefilm equipment

Cablefilm motion picture facsimile equipment has been developed for transmitting short lengths of 16 mm film over long distances as quickly as possible. A good quality music circuit for about 6 kc/s bandwidth is required. Techniques similar to those found in television are used, and although, in view of the narrow bandwidth of transmission circuit, a considerable time is employed in transmission, the system is nevertheless many times faster than previously used facsimile systems. The reasons for the choice of the particular transmission standards employed are given.
