INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing your American Fibertek Series 880C multimode eight channel video multiplexer. Please take a few minutes to read these installation instructions in order to obtain the maximum performance from this product.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The 880C Series units operate as a transmitter / receiver pair for the transmission of eight simultaneous, real time baseband NTSC/PAL video signals over one multimode fiber optic cable.

The MRT-880C transmitter accepts up to eight video inputs and multiplexes these signals onto a single optical output port for connection to the fiber transmission system. Correspondingly, the MRR-880C receiver converts the optical signal to eight independent video output signals.

The 880C Series units operate on 50 um or 62.5 um multimode fiber. Refer to the data sheets for detailed performance specifications.

The individual units may be configured for rack mounting or wall mounting depending upon the position of the included mounting hardware.

INSTALLATION

THIS INSTALLATION SHOULD BE MADE BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON AND SHOULD CONFORM TO THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA AND LOCAL CODES.

To install the MRT-880C or MRR-880C it is first necessary to mount the rack flanges to the unit.

For rack mounting the ears are installed on the sides of the unit with the surfaces that have oval holes flush with the front of the unit as in Figure 1. Mount the ears with the #10 flathead screws provided. To mount in the rack cabinet, use mounting screws that are appropriate for the rack cabinet being used.
