SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND
COMPLIANCE DECLARATIONS
PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS AS OUR PRODUCTS CONT AIN
CLASS I LASER PRODUCTS
WARNING
Do not disconnect the fiber optic connector while the unit is powered up. Exposure to laser radiation is possible when the laser fiber optic connector is disconnected while the unit is powered up.
Although the fiber optic connectors in this product emit only Class 1 energy that is below the levels considered to be hazardous, one should never stare directly into a fiber optic connector or an unconnected fiber end unless one can be certain that no exposure to laser energy could occur.
CAUTION
This manual is intended for use by trained service personnel. The use of controls, making adjustments, or performing operations other than those specified may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The following label or equivalent is located on the surface of laser products. This label indicates that the product is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT.

1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The 1500E Series is a high performance, yet affordable, Fiber Optic 250C Short Haul Analog V ideo Transport System with SDV/HDTV Digital Video. The standard 1500E system is designed to transport one broadcast quality 250C analog video channel, four professional grade analog audio channels, as well as one SMPTE-259M (SDV) or SMPTE-292M (HDTV) serial digital video signal with embedded digital AES/EBU option, over long distance through either singlemode or multimode fiber . In addition, the 1500E can support RS-232 (or RS-422) in bi-directional transceiver models. Many versions of optical transmitter and receiver combinations are available to address different distance requirements.
Due to the use of advanced digital fiber optic transmission technology , the quality of analog video, audio and data transmission is superior to the analog counterparts. No user adjustments are required in the 1500E system, enabling quick setup and trouble-free operation.
The 1500E comes with a rugged, standalone, rackmountable unit. Panel connectors are provided for analog baseband video (BNC connector), analog stereo audio (terminal block), RS-232/RS-422 data (DB9 connector), SDV/HDTV digital video (BNC connector), and fiber connection (FC-type for the singlemode version or ST-type for the multimode version). The 1500E can be easily monitored by front panel LED indicators for power, optical link, and channel activity . (See Figure 1-1).

2.0 SETUP
The BCI 1500E Series units are used in pairs. In a unidirectional application, one 1500E transmitter unit is located at the near-end and connected through one optical fiber to a 1500E receiver located at the far-end of the link. For bi-directional applications, one 1500E transceiver unit is located at the near-end and connected through two optical fibers to an identical 1500E transceiver located at the far-end of the link. Each unit provides a separate electrical interface connector for each signal format. Connections are one to one between both units. Figure 2-1 depicts a typical installation.

2.1 Mounting
Before installing the units into your housing, make sure there is enough space to pull and connect both the electrical and optical cables without stressing them beyond the manufacturer’s limitations (also known as the bend radius minimum). Rack Mount kits are available through special order.
2.2 Cabling and Connectors
In order to setup the BCI 1500E properly , make sure to observe the following instructions when installing the proper cables. The 1500E requires two parts to the cabling setup: the electrical and the optical.
2.3 Electrical Cable Connection
For the electrical connection, it is required that the following steps be observed when connecting the various audio, video and data terminal devices, as they all require special attention. The available electrical connections are for video, audio and serial data. They are described in the following sections.
2.3.1 Analog Video Interface
The 1500E accepts 75-ohm video signal over coax cable terminated to a BNC connector (e.g., RG 59U with a BNC connector). (See Figure 2-2). For analog video connections, follow these steps.
1. Connect the required video transmission source to the VIDEO IN BNC connector on the 1500E unit.
2. Then, connect the VIDEO OUT BNC connector on the 1500E unit to the required video receiver unit(s). You are now ready to transmit and receive video signals.

a. For balanced audio signal, connect the
positive (+), negative (-) and ground (G) of the 1500E unit’s terminal block to the corresponding terminals of the user’s equipment.
b. For unbalanced audio signal.
Connect the negative (-) and ground (G) of
the 1500E unit’s terminal block.
Connect the positive (+) terminal of the
1500E unit to the positive (+) terminal of the user’s equipment and negative (-) or ground (G) of the 1500E unit to the ground terminal of the user’s equipment.
2. Lastly , connect the 1500E unit’s audio output ports to the required audio receiver devices. You are now ready to transmit and receive audio signals.
When connecting the audio sources, be sure to observe the following for proper polarity .
10
Three position terminal blocks (feed-through) are provided for the three-wire audio connection (see Figure 2-4). We recommend that you use 22 standard wire (22-AWG) to connect the user’s audio equipment to the 1500E unit. Use a flat head screwdriver to tighten the terminal screw.
