VBS 2050 TX-3
Triple optical video transmitter
USER MANUAL
1. General description
The VBS 2050 TX-3 plug-in module contains three
identical optical video baseband transmitters. Video
input to each of these separate analogue
transmitters is converted into intensity modulated
optical equivalents. Signal integrity is preserved
with the aid of video clamping, making installation
and operation adjustment-free. The units transmit at
an optical wavelength of 1300 nm and can be
connected to single-mode optical fiber.
The 7TE modules will slot into the backplanes of
TKH Security's MC 10 or MC 11 power supply
cabinets; the EB versions of these allow module
status readout from a network.
Details specific to the stand-alone version (/SA
option) are described in a supplementary, separate
document.
VBS 2050 TX-3 transmitters are suitable for use in
combination
with
ADV
systems,
allowing
incorporation of two independent streams of digital
data into a video signal.

3. Installation instructions
1.
VBS 2050 TX-3 units should always be used in
combination with TKH Security power supply
cabinets or in TKH Security stand-alone
housings.
2.
Plug the module into the power cabinet (or
connect the power supply of the /SA housing)
and connect suitable video and optical fiber
equipment to the module.
3.
After powering on, at least the green DC LED
should glow.
4. Upon feeding a TX-3 input with a proper video
signal, the corresponding NV LED (red) should
go out.
4. Care and maintenance
To maintain reliable operation of the module,
observe the following:
- Prevent dust from collecting on the equipment
- Protect the equipment against moisture
- Maintain sufficient free space around the equip-
ment for cooling.
General safety and EMC information is found in the
final section of this document.
