Board Installation 

Use the following steps to install the SEA-8008 in a RossGear 8000 series digital distribution frame: 

1.  Refer to the User Manual of the RossGear 8000 series frame, to ensure that the 

frame is properly installed according to instructions.  If this module is to be installed 
in any compatible frame other than a Ross Video product, refer to the frame 
manufacturer’s manual for specific instructions. 

2.  Please note that heat and power distribution requirements within a frame may dictate 

specific slot placement of cards.  Cards with many heat-producing components 
should be arranged to avoid areas of excess heat build-up, particularly in frames 
using convectional cooling. 

3.  After selecting the desired frame installation slot, hold the SEA-8008 card by the 

edges and carefully align the card edges with the slots in the frame.  Then fully insert 
the card into the frame until the rear connection plug is properly seated. 

BNC Labels 

Affix the supplied BNC label, as per the included instructions, to the BNC area on the rear of the rack 
frame. 

Cable Connections 

This section provides instructions for connecting cables to the SEA-8008 when mounted in RossGear 
8000 series Digital Products Frames.  The cable connectors on the rear of the frame are marked for 
distribution amplifiers having one input and eight outputs.  The SEA-8008 cable connections match 
the frame designations. 

Connect the input and output cables according to the frame rear panel connections diagram in the 
following figures.  The inputs are internally terminated in 75 ohms.  It is not necessary to terminate 
unused outputs.
