Introduction
The Extron CVC 300 Component Video Converter converts all
standard component video formats: NTSC/PAL, DVD, and
Betacam®, to RGBHV or RGBS; and converts SMPTE HDTV
component video to RGBHV. The CVC 300 can also strip
sync-on-green (SOG) from RGsB video. The converter outputs
RGBHV or RGBS video on BNC connectors. The figure below
shows a typical CVC 300 application.
Mounting
1
The component video input formats include SMPTE, HDTV
and Betacam component video. The RGsB video input can be
computer video or NTSC/PAL video.
The 1U high, quarter rack width, CVC 300 converter can be
mounted to a rack, under a desk or tabletop, or on a projector
bracket. It can be rack mounted using one-quarter of a 1U
Universal Rack Shelf, RSU 129 (part #60-190-01) or 1U Basic
UL rack mounting guidelines
Rack Shelf, RSB 129 (part #60-604-01).
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines
pertain to the installation of the CVC 300 into a rack.
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the 1.
equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment may be greater than room ambient
temperature. Therefore, install the converter in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature (Tma = +104 °F, +40 °C) specified by Extron.
CVC 300 • Installation
Use 2 mounting holes on
opposite corners.

Mounting
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that 2.
the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so 3.
that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to 4.
the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit
overloading might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable 5.
grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Mounting instructions
Rack mount the CVC 300 as follows:
Remove the feet from the CVC, if they were previously 1.
installed.
Mount the CVC 300 on the rack shelf, using two 2.
4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite corners (under the shelf) to
secure the converter to the shelf (see below).
