2.0 SETUP
The BCI Mini-12GSDI Series units are used in pairs. For
unidirectional systems, one Mini-12GSDI transmitter unit is located at
the near end and connected to the Mini-12GSDI receiver located at
the far end of the link, connected through one optical fiber. Each
unit provides a separate electrical interface connector for the SDI
video signal.
2.1 Mounting
Before installing the units into your housing, make sure there
is enough space to pull and connect both the electrical and
optical cables without stressing them beyond the
manufacturer’s limitations (also known as the bend radius
minimum).
2.2 Cabling and Connectors
In order to setup the BCI Mini-12GSDI properly, make sure to
observe the following instructions when installing the proper
cables. The Mini-12GSDI requires two parts to the cabling
setup, the electrical and the optical. For the optical part,
observe the following procedures, as there are various
types of optical connectors as illustrated on the following
page.
