About This Manual

This manual describes the features of a specific 2000 Series module in the
Kameleon Media Processing System. As part of this module family, it is
subject to Safety and Regulatory Compliance described in the 2000 Series
frame and power supply documentation (see the

tion Manual

).

2010RDA-16 AES/EBU Digital Audio Reclocking DA

Introduction

The 2010RDA-16 is a single or dual operation 75
digital audio reclocking distribution amplifier. The 2010RDA-16 is config­ured with an on-board jumper to provide a single input with sixteen
outputs or as a dual, two input, eight output DA providing two distinct dis­tribution amplifiers on a single card. Reclocking provides jitter reduction at
a variety of sample rates for the most demanding AES/EBU requirements.

The 2010RDA-16 modules feature:

•Unbalanced digital audio SMPTE 276M,

• 75

• Single mode with one input and 16 outputs,

•Dual mode with two inputs, each with eight outputs,

•Auto-detect data reclocking at sample rates of 32, 44.1, 48 or 96 kHz,

•Housed in the Kameleon frame with other 2000 series audio and video

•Remote control via Ethernet frame interface with web browser GUI or

• Loss of signal detection and SNMP reporting.

Installation

Installation

Installation of the 2010RDA-16 module is a process of:

•Configuring the module for Single or Dual operation with an on-board
jumper, JP5,

• Placing the passive rear module in a rear frame slot,

• Placing the media module in the corresponding front slot, and

•Cabling and terminating signal ports.

The 2010RDA-16 module can be plugged in and removed from a Kameleon
2000 Series frame with power on. When power is applied to the module,
LED indicators reflect the initialization process (see

Power Up

on page 14).

Local Onboard Module Configuration

The 2010RDA-16 module is configured locally for Single or Dual operation
using the jumper shown in Figure 1.

Module Placement in the Kameleon 2000 Frame

There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a Kameleon
3 RU frame to accommodate 2000 Series modules. The 2010RDA-16
module set consists of a front media module and a passive rear module that
require two module slots.

Each 2010RDA-16 front media module plugs into the front of the 2000
frame mid-plane. The passive rear module plugs into the corresponding
rear slot to provide the input and output interface connectors. Stacked
BNCs on the passive rear module require two rear slots. A frame fully
stuffed with 2010RDA-16 front and rear modules will accommodate up to
six module sets as shown in Figure 2.

To install a 2010RDA-16 module set in the frame:

1.

Locate a vacant slot in slot 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 of the rear of the 3 RU
frame (Figure 2). The passive rear module uses two slots.
