1.1.1 Accessories
The HDR-5000 receiver is compatible with several Vislink block downconverters (BDCs) that transform
the incoming RF signal into UHF for input to the receiver.
A typical installation consists of a receiver, low-noise block downconverters, filters, antennas and cables.
In a typical system, each antenna is connected to a separate low-noise block downconverter (BDC) by a
short cable or direct N-Type connector. The converters output a UHF signal through coaxial cable to UHF
input ports at the rear of the receiver. The receiver and downconverters can be separated by up to 600
feet (183 m), depending on frequency and cable type.
Incoming signals and downconverter power travel on the same cable using BiasT interfaces in both the
converter and the receiver. The receiver samples the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from all antennas,
constructing an optimized signal from one or more signals. Use high-quality RG-6 or RG-11 75

coaxial
cable to connect the receiver and downconverters.
The following figure shows a typical configuration.
