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 Kameleon 2000 Series

Frames Instruction Manual ).

2031RDA-SM/-MM Single/Multi Mode Fiber SD Reclocking Rear DA

Introduction

The 2031RDA-SM (Single)/-MM (Multi) Mode SD Reclocking Rear DA
provides reclocking and distribution of one electrical or optical SDI input
to eight electrical outputs and one optical output. Two module versions are
available supporting either a single or multimode fiber input and output.
The single module resides in any rear slot of a Kameleon 2000 Series frame
and is independent of any front card for operation.

The module is designed to be used as an optical to electrical converter, an
electrical to optical converter, or a distribution amplifier for standard defi­nition serial digital video.

The features of the 2031RDA-SM/-MM include:

• Eight reclocked electrical BNC outputs,

• Single or multi-mode fiber input and output interface,

• Hot-swappable in the Kameleon 2000 frame,

• Ideal for monitoring or distributing reclocked signals from adjacent
2000 modules, and

• NetConfig and NetCentral support, and

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

Installation

Installation

Module Placement in the Kameleon Frame

1.

Installation of the 2031RDA-SM/-MM module is a process of:

• Placing the module in a rear frame slot, and

• Cabling signal ports.

The 2031RDA-SM/-MM 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 11).

There are twelve slot locations in the 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 2031RDA-SM/-MM rear module plugs into any one of the rear slots of
the Kameleon 2000 frame.

To install a 2031RDA-SM/-MM rear module in a 2000 Series frame:

Locate a vacant slot in the rear of the 3 RU frame (Figure 1) or the
2000T1DNG frame (Figure 2 on page 9).

Install the module by inserting it into any rear slot of the frame as
illustrated in Figure 3.

Verify that the module connector seats properly against the midplane.

Secure the module to the rear of the frame with the two screw locks on
either side of the back panel using a crossblade screwdriver.

Installation

Cabling

Cabling to the 2031RDA-SM/-MM module is done on the BNCs and the
fiber connector on the rear of the module. Refer to Figure 4 for a detailed
illustration of the rear connections referenced below.

The input can be either electrical or fiber optic and the desired input must
be enabled using an on-board jumper or with remote controls. The outputs
can be both electrical and fiber optic. The fiber optic output must be
enabled using an on-board jumper or remote controls.

For configuration, refer to Configuration and Monitoring on page 13.

Electrical Input

Connect an SDI electrical video input to BNC J10. This input must be
enabled for use during configuration.

Connect a fiber input to the right side of the FIBER IF connector J2. This
input must be enabled for use in configuration.

The fiber output is available on the left side of the FIBER IF connector J2.
This output must be enabled for use in configuration.

Power Up

Operation Indicator LEDs

(green on rear

The on-board LED indicators are illustrated in Figure 5 on page 12. Upon
power-up, the green PWR LED should light and the yellow CONF LED
should illuminate for the duration of module initialization.

With a valid input signal connected, the green on-board PWR LED and the
SIG LED (visible from the rear) should be on. A red FAULT LED indicates
an error situation and, when noted with the other indicator LEDs, can indi­cate a specific problem area. Table 1 describes signal output and LED indi-
cations for the various combinations.
