500ADA-EQ-L Equalizing Analog Video Distribution Amplifier

500ADA-EQ-L - 2

Revision

1.2

2. INSTALLATION

The 500ADA-EQ-L comes with a companion rear panel overlay that can be placed over the rear panel
BNC connectors to identify their function. For information on inserting the module into the frame see
section 3 of the 500FR chapter.

Figure 2-1: 500ADA-EQ-L Rear Panel Overlay

IN

Input (isolated) BNC looping connectors for analog video signals. The INPUT jumper located
on the module near the back determines whether the input signal will be AC or DC coupled.
(See section 6.2)

OUT 1 to 8

There are eight BNC connectors with equalized, filtered DC level adjusted copies of the

input signal.
