Connections
Video
The C MX 5710 uses standard 75 Ohm BNC connectors for the analog video and
reference input connections as well as for the SDI output. We recommend the
use of high quality video cable for digital video connections to reduce the risk of
errors due to excessive cable attenuation. Max output cable lengths the module
will support are shown below.
SDTV =
250m Belden 8281 (270Mbits/s)
HDTV =
140m Belden 1694A (1.4Gbits/s)
NOTE:
Due to the compact design of the connection plate it will be necessary to
use a connection tool to secure the BNC video connectors.
Sub-D 25 Pinout
The module has a Sub-D 25 connector for the analog audio, AES audio and GPI
in and outputs. The pinout is as shown in
