2040RDA-FR, 2040RDA-16FR Fiber Ready Distribution Amplifiers

Introduction

The 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR Fiber Ready Distribution Amplifiers
provides one electrical input by either eight or sixteen non-inverting elec
trical outputs for distributing SD, HD, and DVB-ASI signals. The module
also handles optical/electrical fiber conversion with optional low power
single mode SFP (Small-form Factor Pluggable)/LC 1310nm optical trans
ceiver (input/output) or dual transmitter submodules. This provides both
optical inputs and outputs depending on the type of submodule installed
in the rear module.

Auto-detection and reclocking capability are available at all SD (standard
definition) and HD (high definition) data rates. The reclocking circuit can
be bypassed to distribute signals down to 4 Mbps.

-

-

The 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR features include:

• 2040RDA-FR: Eight BNC electrical outputs, one BNC electrical input, or

• 2040RDA-16FR: Sixteen BNC electrical outputs, one BNC electrical
input,

• Single mode fiber optic submodule option for dual transmitter (2 out­puts) or transceiver (1 input/1 output),

• Module and SFP submodule are both hot-swappable,

• Automatic data rate detection,

• Reclocks at 143 Mb/s, 177 Mb/s, 270 Mb/s, 360 Mb/s, 540 Mb/s, or
1485 Mb/s,

• Distributes transport streams in bypass mode,

• Auto-adjust rise/fall times to meet either the SD or HD standard, and

• Supports networked control and monitoring in frames with 2000NET
module.

2040RDA-FR/16FR — Instruction Manual 9

Installation

Installation

Front Module Onboard Jumper Settings

Installation of a 2040RDA-FR or 2040RDA-16FR module set is a process of:

• Setting on-board jumpers on the front media module for modules not
using remote control or to set module defaults,

• Placing the 2040RDA-FR-R or 2040RDA-16FR-R rear module in a frame
slot,

• Installing the fiber optic SFP submodule (optional),

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

• Cabling signal ports.

The 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR modules have four onboard jumpers
that can be configured for determining the following functions:

• Jumper JP1 – sets control mode for Local only or Remote and Local.

• Jumper JP2 and JP3 – set the input format for the module and/or optic
output enables.

• Jumper JP4 – sets module for bypass or reclocking function.

Factory Defaults

The local settings made on J2, J3, and J4 are the defaults for the module.
Changing any local jumper setting while the module is powered up or
removed and plugged back into the frame will immediately reset the
module to the current local jumper settings. This will also occur when
removing or installing an optic submodule.

Selecting the Recall Fact. Defaults button on the Recall Factory Defaults web
page (

page 35) will return the module to these local settings.

Remote Control Jumper

When the jumper is placed across pins 1 and 2 of jumper block JP1, module
settings are changed from the on-board jumpers only; remote control is
locked out. To have both Local and Remote access, set the jumper across
pins 2 and 3.

Installation

Input/Output Select Jumpers

Set jumpers JP2 and JP3 to 0 (pins 2-3) or 1 (pins 1-2) to select the
input/output type and/or optic output enable according to the silkscreen
on the front module shown in

Note The silkscreen on the module reflects an older version set of SFP submod-

ules. The older version submodules may still be used, but newer submod­ules, SFP-13103G-M1TRX (DTL Dual Transmitter) and SFP-13103G-M1TRX
(TRL Transceiver) will only work with the newer version software.

These jumper settings can be overridden by remote control. When this con­dition occurs, the front edge yellow REM OVR LED will light (refer to

Ta bl e 1 on page 23).

Note The Dual Receiver function is not used at this time.

Figure 2. 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR Front Module Silkscreen

Figure 2.

Auto/Bypass Jumper

In Local mode, the module will operate in Auto or Bypass mode.

When set to Auto mode, the module will automatically reclock the incoming
signal to 143 Mb/s, 270 Mb/s, 360 Mb/s, 540 Mb/s, or 1.485 Gb/s rates
(ASI 270 signals). If the input signal cannot lock to one of these rates, the
reclocking will be bypassed automatically.

When set to Bypass mode, the reclocking will be bypassed completely.

Set jumper JP4 for auto-reclocking (AUTO pins 1-2) or to bypass reclocking
(BPSS pins 2-3). This jumper setting can be overridden by remote control.
When the module is in Bypass, the front edge LD LED will be off (refer to

Ta bl e 1 on page 23).

There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a Kameleon

RU frame to accommodate 2000 Series modules. The 2040RDA-FR and

3
2040RDA-16FR modules set consists of a front media module and a rear
module for the 2040RDA-FR or a dual height rear module for the
2040DRA-16FR that requires two module slots.

Each 2040RDA-FR or 2040RDA-16FR front media module plugs into the
front of the 2000 frame mid-plane. The rear module plugs into the corre
sponding rear slot to provide the input and output interface connectors.
Stacked BNCs on the 2040RDA-16FR passive rear module require two rear
slots. The fiber optic SFP submodule option installs in the connector cage
on the top right of the rear module.

A 3 RU 2000T3 frame fully stuffed with 2040RDA-FR front and rear
modules will accommodate up to twelve module sets as shown in
A 1 RU 2000T1 frame will accommodate up to 4 module sets.

The 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR front and rear modules and fiber
optic submodules 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 22).

To install a 2040RDA-FR module set in the frame:

1. Locate a vacant slot in slot 1-12 in the rear of the 1 RU or 3 RU frame

(3 RU frame shown in Figure 3).

2. Insert the rear module into a vacant rear slot in the frame as illustrated

in Figure 5.

To install a 2040RDA-16FR module set in the frame:

1. Locate a vacant slot in slot 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, or 11 of the rear of the 3 RU frame

(Figure 4). The rear module uses two slots.

2. Insert the rear module into vacant rear slot 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, or 11 of the frame

as illustrated in Figure 6.

To continue installation of 2040RDA-FR and 2040RDA-16FR modules set in
the frame:

1. Verify that the module connector seats properly against the midplane.

2. Using a crossblade screwdriver, tighten the two screw locks to secure

the module in the frame.

3. To install the optional SFP submodule in the 2040RDA-FR, refer to

Figure 7. The SFP submodule is hot-pluggable and may be installed or

removed with power applied to the module.

4. To install the optional SFP submodule in the 2040RDA-16FR, refer to

Figure 8. The SFP submodule is hot-pluggable and may be installed or

removed with power applied to the module.

The module type is identified by name on the label or can be identified
by the direction of the two arrow indicators on the label.

Note Installing or removing the optical submodule while the module is powered up

will reset the module to a default state—that of the jumper settings currently
set for JP2, JP3, and JP4 (see Factory Defaults on page 10).

5. With the handle in the up position, slide the metal casing, label side up,

into the cage connector on the top right of the rear module.

Note When installed properly, the front end of the submodule will line up with the

BNCs. Do not try to force it in further.
