Restriction on

Hazardous

Substances

(RoHS) Directive

Directive 2002/95/EC — commonly known as the European Union (EU) Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) — sets limits on the use of certain substances

found in electrical and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of hazardous chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive, which took effect on July 1, 2006, refers to the following hazardous substances:

 Lead (Pb)  Mercury (Hg)  Cadmium (Cd)  Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)  Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)  Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)

In accordance with this EU Directive, products sold in the European Union will be fully RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade of equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant symbol, as shown in Figure P-1.

Waste from

Electrical and

Equipment

(WEEE) Directive

Figure P-1 RoHS Compliance Symbol

The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96 /EC on Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection, treatment, recovery, and

recycling of electrical and electronic waste products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the responsibility for the disposal of associated hazardous waste to either the producers or users of these products. As of August 13, 2005, producers or users are required to recycle electrical and electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and must not dispose of the equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some EU member states may have different deadlines.)

In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or electronic devices in the EU will affix labels indicating that such products must be properly recycled. Contact your local Sales representative for information on returning these products for recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a WEEE-compliant symbol, as shown in Figure P-2.

Introduction

The DA-6804+D series of distribution amplifiers is designed to distribute serial digital signals according to SMPTE259C, 292M, 424M and DVB-ASI standards.

The individual modules are available as follows:

 DA-DHR6804+D is a dual channel 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI distribution amplifier

with reclocking. See page 3 for a list of its main features.

 DA-DH6804+D is a dual channel 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI distribution amplifier. See

page 4 for a list of its main features.

 DA-DSR6804+D is a dual channel SD-SDI distribution amplifier with

reclocking. See page 5 for a list of its main features.

 DA-DS6804+D is a dual channel SD-SDI distribution amplifier. See page 7 for a

list of its main features.

 DA-HRO6804+D is a 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI single channel optical to electrical and

electrical to optical converting distribution amplifier. See page 8 for a list of its

main features.

 DA-DHROE6804+D is a 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI dual channel optical to electrical

converting distribution amplifier. See page 9 for a list of its main features.

 DA-DHREO6804+D is a 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI dual channel electrical to optical

converting distribution amplifier. See page 10 for a list of its main features.

 DA-DHROO6804+D is a 3 Gb/s HD/SD-SDI dual channel optical distribution

amplifier with dual electrical outputs. See page 12 for a list of its main

features.

Each distribution amplifier consists of a front module and a back module, and operates in FR6802+ series frames.

Each distribution amplifier, with its corresponding back module, occupies two slots in the frame. Ten distribution amplifiers can be loaded in a frame.

Each distribution amplifier contains two inputs and eight outputs, and can be configured as a single channel (1×8_ACO or 1×8) or two independent channels (2_1×4). Each FR6802+ frame can provide up to 20 channels for serial digital signal distribution.

The DA-6804+D series is featured as “green” (power saving). The power can be shut down automatically if no input signal is detected. Power consumption should be reduced if any output BNC is not terminated.

Chapter 1

Introduction

The setup, control, and monitoring can be controlled locally via jumpers on the front edge of the front module with LED display; or remotely via RS-232 ports or Ethernet connection using an ICE6800+ and 6800+ETH Ethernet connection and Harris CCS control software. CCS remote control provides additional control functions that are not included in local control mode.

Modules

Back Module

Installation

The DA-6804+D series front modules have corresponding back modules that are installed in the host frame. See page 24 for details on installing back modules.

These modules cannot be installed in 6800/7000 series frames.

The DA-6804+D series back modules have specialized installation procedures. If installing both front and back modules, ensure that the back module is installed first before plugging in the front module.

 When removing both the front and back modules, ensure that the front

module is unplugged from the frame first, before removing the back module.

 See the appropriate frame installation and operation manual for details on

installing and operating the frame and its components.

 See the 6800+ Safety Instructions and Standards Manual for important

information about safely installing your module.

Once you have installed the modules, you can connect them to the appropriate input and outputs.

SFPs on DA-6804+D series back modules have plastic caps that protect the fragile laser connections from dust (see Figure 2-5 on page 25). You must remove these protective covers before you attach the fiber cables.

Figure 2-5 on page 25 shows a typical fiber optical back module. Your module’s

appearance may differ slightly from the one shown; however, the protective covers are positioned identically and must be removed according to the instructions provided. The installation instructions that follow will prompt you as to when you should remove the protective covers.

In addition, all of the LC connections of the fiber optical cables must be inspected and cleaned before they are assembled. Carefully follow the inspection and cleaning steps described in the next pages. Additional safety information begins on

Laser Safety Guidelines on page 53.

1 Remove a blank back plate from the frame. Do not discard the blank back

plates. They may be needed for future configurations.

CAUTION: Microscopic dust or other contaminants can seriously impair or disable a fiber optic network. Observe strict cleaning procedures. Do not touch the end of the fiber.

2 If it is already installed, remove the front module from the slot. 3 Install the new back module by inserting the bottom lip into the required

frame slot, and then screwing it into place.

4 Follow the fiber cable inspection and cleaning procedure that begins on

page 59.

5 Insert the front module into the slot holding the corresponding back module. 6 Attach the fiber cable and/or electrical cables to the back module (see Setting

Up Back Connector Modules on page 21).

Front modules require no specialized installation procedures other than those described in Setting Up Front Modules on page 22. If installing both front and back modules, ensure that the back module is installed first before plugging in the front module.

Removing Modules

These modules require no specialized removal procedures. If installing both front and back modules, ensure that the front module is removed first.

Operation

When a frame, back modules, and the front module are set up, plug the front module into the frame; connect the input and output cables to BNCs on back module and/or LC fiber optional cables to SFPs; and turn on the power supply of the frame. After approximately three seconds, the distribution amplifier should operate properly. Usually there is no need for other operational changes.

Without a CCS remote control system, DA-6804+D series distribution amplifiers are fully functional in FR6802+ frames. With an installed CCS system (including 6800+ETH module in the FR6802+ frame), distribution amplifier operation can be monitored and configured on the remote computer display. The J3 jumper must be set to REMOTE (see Table 2-3 on page 23). If the J3 jumper is not set to this setting, the distribution amplifier can be remotely monitored only, and remote configuration is not possible.

Parameters

When you set the control parameters on DA-6804+D series distribution amplifiers, observe the following:

 If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters may also

be affected.

 When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However, the module

requires up to 30 seconds to save the latest change. After 30 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if the module loses power and must be restarted.

In the local control operation mode, all of the settings’ data status information appears on the CCS control software application control screen; however, you cannot change any setting in this mode via the CCS control software application. (To control the operation mode via the CCS control software application, set the J3 jumper to the REMOTE.)

Reclocking mode and control mode parameters are available for local control.

The J1 and J2 jumpers are used to determine reclocking mode. Table 2-2 on page 22 describes parameters that are accessible locally.

The J3 jumper is used to determine control mode. Table 2-3 on page 23 describes parameters that are accessible locally.

Laser Safety Guidelines

WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments, and procedures other than those specified in this document may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

Optical fiber telecommunication systems, their associated test sets, and similar operating systems use semiconductor laser transmitters that emit infrared (IR) light at wavelengths between approximately 800 nanometers and 1600 nanometers. The emitted light is above the red end of the visible spectrum, which is normally not visible to the human eye. Although radiant energy at near-IR wavelengths is officially designated invisible, some people can see the shorter wavelength energy even at power levels several orders of magnitude below any that have been shown to cause injury to the eye.

Appendix A

Laser Safety Guidelines

General Laser

Information

Lasers and

Eye Damage

Conventional lasers can produce an intense beam of monochromatic light. (The term “monochromaticity” means a single wavelength output of pure color that may be visible or invisible to the eye.) A conventional laser produces a small-sized beam of light, and because the beam size is small the power density (also called “irradiance”) is very high. Consequently, for their safe operation, lasers and laser products are subject to federal and applicable state (USA) regulations, as well as international standards.

A conventional laser beam expands very little over distance, or is said to be very well “collimated”; thus, conventional laser irradiance remains relatively constant over distance. Lasers used in lightwave systems, however, have a large beam divergence, which is typically 10 to 20 degrees. Here, irradiance obeys the inverse square law (doubling the distance reduces the irradiance by a factor of 4) and rapidly decreases over distance.

The optical energy emitted by laser and high-radiance LEDs in the 400-1400 nm range may cause eye damage. When a beam of light enters the eye, the eye magnifies and focuses the energy on the retina, magnifying the irradiance. The irradiance of the energy that reaches the retina is approximately 105or 100,000 times more than at the cornea and, if sufficiently intense, may burn the retina.

The damage mechanism at the wavelengths used in an optical fiber telecommunications is thermal in origin, i.e., damage caused by heating. A specific amount of energy is required for a definite time to heat an area of retinal tissue. Damage to the retina occurs only when you look at the light sufficiently long that the product of the retinal irradiance and the viewing time exceeds the damage threshold. Optical energies above 1400 nm cause corneal and skin burns but do not affect the retina. The thresholds for injury at wavelengths greater than 1400 nm are significantly higher than for wavelengths in the retinal hazard region

Classification

of Lasers

Laser Safety

Precautions

for Optical

Fiber Com-

Manufacturers of lasers and laser products in the U.S. are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (FDA/CDRH) under 21 CFR 1040. These regulations require manufacturers to certify each laser or laser product as belonging to one of four major Classes: I, II, IIa, IIIa, IIIb, or IV.

The International Electro-Technical Commission is an international standards body that writes laser safety standards under IEC-60825. Classification schemes are similar with Classes divided into Classes 1, 2, 3A, 3B, and 4.

Lasers are classified according to the accessible emission limits and their potential for causing injury. Optical fiber telecommunication systems are generally classified as Class I/1 because, under normal operating conditions, all energized laser transmitting modules are terminated on optical fibers which enclose the laser energy with the fiber sheath forming a protective housing.

Also, a protective housing/access panel is typically installed in front of the laser modules frames. The modules themselves, however, may be FDA/CDRH Class I or IIIb; or IEC Class 1, 3A, or 3B.

In its normal operating mode, an optical fiber communication system is totally enclosed and presents no risk of eye injury. It is a Class I/1 system under the FDA and IEC classifications. The fiber optic cables that interconnect various components of an optical fiber can disconnect or break, and may expose people to laser emissions. Also, certain measures and maintenance procedures may expose the technician to emission from the semiconductor laser during installation and servicing.

munication

Systems

Laser Safety

Unlike more familiar laser devices, such as solid-state and gas lasers, the emission pattern of a semiconductor laser results in a highly divergent beam. In a divergent beam, the irradiance (power density) decreases rapidly with distance. The greater the distance, the less energy will enter the eye, and the less potential risk for eye injury.

Inadvertently viewing an unterminated fiber or damaged fiber with the unaided eye at distances greater than 5 to 6 in. (127 to 152 mm) normally will not cause eye injury, provided that the power in the fiber is less than a few milliwatts at the near IR wavelengths and a few tens of milliwatts at the far IR wavelengths.

WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments, and procedures other than those specified in this document may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

Optical fiber telecommunication systems use semiconductor laser transmitters that emit infrared light that is normally not visible to the human eye. Although a conventional laser produces a small beam of light, the power density is very high, and it can damage your eyes.

Appendix A

56

Laser Safety Guidelines

If a beam of laser light enters the eye, the eye magnifies and focuses the energy on the retina. The energy that reaches the retina can be as much as 100,000 times more than at the cornea and, as a result, it can burn the retina.

Laser transmission products are classified in four major groups (Class 1, 2, 3, and

4), according to their emissions and potential for causing injury. Fiber optic transmitter modules in this series are designated Class 1.

Precautions for

Enclosed Systems

Precautions for

Unenclosed

Systems

Under normal operating conditions, optical fiber telecommunication systems are completely enclosed; nonetheless, observe the following precautions:

 Because of the potential for eye damage, technicians should not stare into

optical connectors or broken fibers.

 Under no circumstance shall laser/fiber optic operations be performed by a

technician before satisfactorily completing an approved training course.

 Since viewing laser emissions directly in excess of Class I/1 limits with an

optical instrument such as an eye loupe greatly increases the risk of eye damage, appropriate labels must appear in plain view, in close proximity to the optical port on the protective housing/access panel of the terminal equipment.

WARNING: Eye damage may occur if an optical instrument such as a microscope, magnifying glass, or eye loupe is used to stare at the energized fiber end.

During service, maintenance, or restoration, an optical fiber telecommunication system is considered unenclosed. Under these conditions, follow these practices:

CAUTION: Only authorized, trained personnel shall be permitted to do service, maintenance, and restoration.

 Avoid exposing the eye to emissions from unterminated, energized optical

connectors at close distances. Laser modules associated with the optical ports of laser circuit packs are

typically recessed, which limits the exposure distance. Optical port shutters, Automatic Power Reduction (APR), and Automatic Power Shut Down (APSD) are engineering controls that are also used to limit the emissions. However, technicians removing or replacing laser modules should not stare or look directly into the optical port with optical instruments or magnifying lenses. (Normal eyewear or indirect viewing instruments such as Find-R-Scopes are not considered magnifying lenses or optical instruments).

 Ensure that only authorized, trained personnel use optical test equipment

during installation or servicing.

 Turn off all laser sources before scanning a fiber with an optical test set.  Keep all unauthorized personnel away from the immediate area of the optical

fiber systems during installation and service.

Inspecting and Cleaning Fiber Optic Connections

Small amounts of microscopic dust or other contaminants can seriously impair or disable a fiber optic network. To ensure that your network operates reliably, you must carefully inspect and clean each connection when installing fiber optical products.

Table B-1 lists some typical contaminants of a fiber optic connection. The

inspection and cleaning procedure begins on page 61.

Table B-1 Typical Contaminants

Contaminant Comments

Dust particle, 1 micron Can block up to 1% of the light transmission,

creating a loss of 0.05 dB

Dust particle, 9 microns

Human hair Typically 50 to 75 microns in diameter

Oil Frequently caused by touching

Film residues Can accumulate from vapors or smoke

Powdery coatings Can be left behind after water or other solvents

Although microscopic, the particle can completely block the fiber core

evaporate

Appendix B

Inspecting and Cleaning Fiber Optic Connections

Important

Points

 Before you begin cleaning, always inspect the fiber connections.  Inspect and clean both fiber ends every time you make a connection.  Keep a protective cap on unplugged fiber connectors.  Do not touch the end of a fiber.  Store unused protective caps in a clean resealable container, located nearby for

easy access.

 Do not reuse cleaning tissues or swabs.  Do not allow alcohol or another wet cleaning agent to dry on a fiber end.  Never touch the dispenser tip of an alcohol bottle or any clean portion of a

tissue or swab.

 Use care when handling the fiber; do not twist or pull.  Keep your cleaning fluids away from open flame or spark.

Inspection

Dry Cleaning

To inspect and clean the fibers, follow these steps:

1 Ensure the fiber is not “live.”

I ON  : Eye damage may occur if an optical instrument such as a microscope, magnifying glass, or eye loupe is used to stare at an energized fiber end.

2 Inspect the fiber endface with a fiberscope.

If the connector is dirty, proceed to the dry cleaning instructions below.

If you are using cartridge or pocket-style dry cleaning tools, follow the manufacturer’s directions. If you are using lint-free wipes, follow these steps:

1 Fold the lint-free wipe four to eight times into a square, taking care to avoid

touching the cleaning surface of the wipe.

2 Lightly wipe the fiber tip in the central portion of the lint-free wipe.

CAUTION: Do not scrub the fiber. Excessive rubbing will leave scratches.

Wet Cleaning

3 Repeat the wiping action on another clean section of the wipe or a new wipe. 4 Inspect the connector again with the fiberscope. 5 If the connection is clean, return to the installation steps on page 24.

If the connector is still dirty, proceed to the wet cleaning instructions.

Using 99% isopropyl alcohol and lint-free wipes, follow these steps to wet clean the fiber:

1 Fold the wipe into a square, about 4 to 8 layers thick. 2 Moisten one section of the lint-free wipe with one drop of 99% alcohol,

ensuring that a portion of the wipe remains dry.

3 Lightly wipe the fiber end in the alcohol-moistened portion of the lint-free

wipe.

4 Immediately repeat the wiping action on the dry section of the wipe, removing

any residual alcohol.

5 Inspect the fiber endface again, and if necessary, repeat the wet cleaning with

another clean section of the lint-free wipe.

CAUTION: Do not scrub the fiber. Excessive rubbing will leave scratches.

6 Dry clean any remaining residue, and then inspect the connector again.

62

Appendix B

Inspecting and Cleaning Fiber Optic Connections

7 If the contamination persists, repeat the dry and wet cleaning procedure until

the endface is clean. If the fiber end still remains dirty after repeated cleaning attempts, call

Customer Service for further instructions. If the fiber end is clean, return to the installation instructions on page 24.
