Connections
The SDI video input is connected to the 75
Ohm BNC connections (up to12Gbit). The fiber
connection is LC/PC Simplex SMF (singlemode).
An example of the LC connector is shown on the
right (fiber optic cable and LC connectors are
not supplied).
The fiber connection comes standard with an installed rubber plug to
prevent dust contamination. Please keep the plug for later use if the
cable is ever disconnected from the cable.
The basic module has no fiber SFP included, The module is typically
used for CWDM applications and the wavelength can be selected from
the available CWDM SFPs.
Note:
The modules are CWDM devices and can only be used with SMF (Singlemode fiber). Multi-
mode fiber is not supported.
Operation
The module has two identical (and fully independent) channels.
Operation is full automatic. The SDI input video rates are atuomatically
detected, reclocked, and transmitted over the optical connections.
The OTT 1442 supports any SDI video signal from 270Mbit/s to 12Gbit/s.
The module supports hot swapping and hot plugging of connections.
No user settings are provided for this module.
Note:
If TX LED is OFF, then this indicates that there is no SDI present or not a valid input.
Power
The module requires a 12V DC power input and an LED is provided to
confirms power is connected. A power supply is provided, however
if you use your own power supply, please provide a clean DC power
source between 7 and 24V. The module power consumption is
approximately 1.9W nominal.
Power Lead Strain Relief
The module has a small hole in the case which is located above the
power connection. This prevents the power lead being accidentally
pulled out. Use the supplied tie-wrap and secure the lead as shown
below.
Optional Mounting Solutions
The optional RFR 1001 mounting bracket can be used to permanently
mount the module on any surface or on 19” rack rails.
The optional RFR 1000-1 rack mount can be used to permanently
mount up to 14 yellobrik modules. In addition, the RFR 1000-1 can
provide full power redundancy for all mounted yellobriks.
Note:
OTT 1442 is identical in terms of mounting and securing.
