Installing the MX-Bus Cables
Installing the Video/Unbalanced Digital Audio Input & Output Signals
This section provides guidelines for installing the Utah-400 Video Inputs and Outputs on the
backplane connectors. Serial Digital Video and Audio cable specifications are listed below.
The following recommendations are made regarding cable connections:
•
Ensure the router frames are installed securely in the equipment racks.
•
Due to the compactness of the Utah-400 rear panel BNC's, it may be useful to have a connector
chart next to the backplane.
•
The use of a BNC insertion / extraction tool is recommended.
•
Label the Input and Output cables coming into the rear panel – for example:
•
VTR1 – Video Out or Out 0 – VTR1.
•
All Utah-400 Digital Video/Unbalanced Audio BNC's use 75-Ohm single ended connectors.
•
Avoid stress on the lower backplane BNC connections by providing proper strain relief on all
cables.
•
The Utah-400 Input matrix starts with Input 0 at the top right of the backplane.
•
The Utah-400 Output matrix starts with Output 0 at the bottom right.
•
Due to the 75 Ohm internal termination, do not use BNC "T" connectors to loop an input signal.
This will result in serious signal degradation.
Figure 2-10 shows the entire Utah-400 144 x 144 Matrix rear panels. (Video or unbalanced
digital audio.)
Figure 2-11 shows the Input rear panel connector matrix, use this matrix to connect the input
cables to the chassis.
Figure 2-12 shows the Output rear panel connector matrix, use this matrix to connect the out-
put cables to the chassis.
