INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing your American Fibertek Series 92400SL singlemode twenty four
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 92400SL Series units operate as a transmitter / receiver pair for the digital transmission of
twenty four simultaneous NTSC or PAL video signals over one singlemode fiber optic cable.

The RT-92400SL transmitter accepts up to twenty four video inputs in three groups containing
eight videos each. The eight videos from each group are multiplexed into a high speed serial
data stream. The first group’s serial data stream modulates a laser at 1470nm wavelength. The
second group’s serial data stream modulates a laser at 1490nm wavelength. This pattern is
repeated for group three using the 1510nm wavelength. A Course Wave Division Multiplexer
(CWDM) combines these three wavelengths onto a single optical output port for connection to
the fiber transmission system. Correspondingly, the RR-92400SL receiver converts the optical
signal to twenty four independent video outputs.

The 92400SL Series product is designed to operate over an optical loss budget range of 0dB to
21dB on 9um singlemode fiber. Refer to the product specification sheet for additional
performance data.

RT-92400SL COMPONENTS

The RT-92400SL consists of the following components:

1) RT-980-1470 1) RT-CWDM-4 1) SR-20

1) RT-980-1490 3) PCSC/UPC-0.3 1) PSR-2

1) RT-980-1510 3) BPS-2
The individual 980 series video rack cards that make up the RT-92400SL are combined in a

rack mount configuration using the SR-20 subrack. Please refer to the instruction manuals for
the SR-20 and the PSR-2 for information on the installation of the subrack with its power supply.
The individual 980 series rack cards can slide into any two adjacent open slots in the SR-20
subrack, however, the recommended configuration is shown on the next page. Use a small
screwdriver to push and lock the four ¼ turn fasteners into place.
