2040RDA Wideband
Reclocking Distribution
Amplifier
Introduction
The 2040RDA Wideband Reclocking Distribution Amplifier provides high
HDTV distribution density with eight non-inverting outputs. It has
auto-detect and reclocking capability at all SD (standard definition) and
HD (high definition) data rates. The reclocking circuit can be bypassed to
distribute compressed signals down to 4 Mbps. Like any Kameleon 2000
Series analog or SDI (serial digital interface) distribution amplifier, the
2040RDA can be removed from the front of the Kameleon frame without
powering down or removing cables from the rear of the frame (hot swap
pable).
-
The 2040RDA features include:
•Eight outputs,
•Module is hot-swappable,
•Automatic data rate detection,
•Reclocks at 143 Mbps, 177 Mbps, 270 Mbps, 360 Mbps, or 1.5 Gbps,
•Distributes transport streams in bypass mode,
•Auto-equalizing up to 100 meters for reclocked HD video or a bypassed
carrier and 300 meters for reclocked SD video, and
•Supports networked control and monitoring.

Installation
Module Placement in the 2000 Frame
Installation of the 2040RDA module is a process of:
•Placing the Coax PRM (passive rear module) in a frame slot,
•Placing the front media module in the corresponding front slot, and
•Cabling signal ports.
The 2040RDA 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 13).
There are twelve media module slot locations in the 3 RU frame to accommodate either analog or digital modules. The 2040RDA consists of a two
module set with a 2040RDA front media module and a Coax PRM passive
rear connector module that can be plugged into any of the 12 frame slots.
Each 2040RDA media module plugs into the front of the 2000 Series frame
mid-plane as illustrated in
Figure 1. The Passive Rear module plugs into
the corresponding rear media slot to provide the input and output interface
connectors.

All cabling to the 2040RDA module is done on the corresponding Passive
Rear module at the back of the 2000 frame. Refer to
Figure 4 for a detailed
illustration of the rear connections referenced in the steps below.
Connect an HD or SD video input to BNC J10. The 2040RDA will accept any
of the serial digital component video signals conforming to the following
SMPTE formats:
•SMPTE 292M
•259M (143 Mbps, 177 Mbps, 270 Mbps, 360 Mbps)
•EBU 1697
•4 Mbps to 1.5 Gbps (tested with PN20 pseudonoise sequence ratio,
maximum 19:1)
•SMPTE 310M
Outputs
•DVB-ASI
The input signal is distributed to eight output ports. Connect video output
devices to outputs J2 through J9 provided on the Coax Passive Rear
module.
NoteBNC J1 is not used on this module. On earlier versions of the 2040RDA
labeled with part number 671-4962-00, BNC J1 provided an output.
The front LED indicators are illustrated in Figure 5. Upon power-up, the
green PWR LED should light and the yellow CONF LED should illuminate
for the duration of module initialization.
With factory default configuration and a valid input signal connected, the
green PWR LED, the green Signal present LED and the detected signal data
rate LED should be on. Refer to
Tab le 1 on page 13 to see a complete list of
possible operating conditions and the resulting indicator status.

Troubleshooting
Service
The 2040RDA modules make extensive use of surface-mount technology
and programmed parts to achieve compact size and adherence to
demanding technical specifications. Circuit modules should not be ser
viced in the field unless as directed by Customer Service.
If the module has not passed self-diagnostics, do not attempt to troubleshoot. Return the unit to Thomson Grass Valley (see Module Repair).
If your module is not operating correctly, proceed as follows:
•Check frame and module power.
•If module power is not present, check fuse F1 (see Figure 12).
-
•Check for presence and quality of input signals.
•Verify that source equipment is operating correctly.
•Check cable connections.

Functional Description
A block diagram of the 2040RDA is shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13. 2040RDA Block Diagram
Input and Output Processing
The input section has a parallel input path from the passive rear input
module for SD (standard definition) and HD (high definition) signal equal
izing and reclocking. The input section can also bypass the signal through
the HD EQ and HD Reclocker directly to the output amplifiers. The output
amplifiers drive eight equal-phase outputs on the passive rear module
(BNCs J2 – J9).
Microprocessor and Input Selector
The primary purpose of the microprocessor is to provide remote control
and monitoring capability for the 2040RDA. It receives signal present,
signal lock, and speed detection signals from the equalizer and reclocker
circuits. Using this information, local jumper settings, and remote control
commands, the microprocessor selects the internal signal path and gives
feedback through the LEDs and remote control bus.
