2030RDA SD Reclocking
Distribution AmpliÞer

Introduction

The 2030RDA SD Reclocking Distribution Amplifier provides basic
reclocking distribution of all SD (standard definition) digital video signals.
All nine outputs are non-inverting, allowing reclocking of compressed
signals such as SMPTE 310M and DVB-ASI at data rates down to 4 Mbps.

The 2030RDA features include:

•Nine outputs,

•Hot-swappable module,

•Automatic data rate detection,

•Reclocks at 143 Mb/s, 177 Mb/s, 270 Mb/s, or 360 Mb/s rate,

•Auto-equalizing up to 300 meters for reclocked SD video, and

•Wit 2000NET module installed, provides support for:

•NetConfig Networking Configuration application,

•SNMP monitoring support (NetCentral), and

•Remote control and monitoring support including web browser
and the Newton Control Panel interface.

The 2030RDA module can be plugged in and removed from a 2000 Series
frame with power on. When power is applied to the module, LED indica­tors reflect the initialization process (see Power Up on page 12).

Placing the CoaxPRM (passive rear module) in a frame slot,

Setting jumper J24 on the 2030RDA front media module for Local or
Remote operation (see
the module in the corresponding front slot, and

Module Placement in the 2000 Frame

There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a 3 RU frame
and four slot locations in a 1 RU frame to accommodate 2000 and Kameleon
Series media modules (audio/video signal handling modules).

The 2030RDA consists of a two-module set with a processing module and
a passive rear module that can be plugged into any of the frame slot pairs.
The rear modules provide the input and output interface connectors.

To install a 2031RDA module set in a 2000 Series frame:

Locate a vacant slot in the rear of the 3 RU frame (Figure 1) or the

Cabling

Input

All cabling to the 2030RDA module is done on the passive rear module at
the back of the 2000 frame. Refer to Figure 7 for a detailed illustration of the
rear connections referenced in the steps below.

Connect an SD video input to BNC J10. The 2030RDA will accept any of the
serial digital component video signals conforming to the following SMPTE
formats:

• 259M (143 Mbps, 177 Mbps, 270 Mbps, 360 Mbps)

•4 Mbp/s to 360 Mbp/s (tested with PN20 pseudo noise sequence ratio,
maximum 19:1)

•SMPTE 310M
