Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Compliance
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:
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manualxi
According to this EU Directive, all products sold in the European Union will be
fully RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” (See our website for more information
on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Spare parts supplied for the repair and
upgrade of equipment sold before July
Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a
RoHS-compliant emblem, as shown in
Figure P-1. RoHS Compliance Emblem

Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Compliance
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, the producers or users of these products were required to recycle
electrical and electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and may not dispose
of the equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some EU
member states may have different deadlines.)
xiiHMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual
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. (See our website for more information on dates and deadlines
for compliance.) 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 emblem, as shown in
Figure
P-2.

Safety Terms and Symbols in this Manual
This product manual uses the following safety terms and symbols to identify
certain conditions or practices. See
Safety Instructions and Standards Manual for more information.
WARNING
Statements identifying conditions or practices that may
result in personal injury or loss of life. High voltage is
present.
CAUTION
Statements identifying conditions or practices that can
result in damage to the equipment or other property.
“Laser Safety” on page 80 and the FR6802+
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manualxiii
The HMX6803+ is an auto-sensing SD/HD-SDI 4-AES audio multiplexer and
processing amplifier with one digital video input and one DARS reference
input, and has four processed SD/HD-SDI outputs. The OP+HMX+ module has
the same features, and an additional optical transmitter. The modules support
embedding and passing of Dolby E™ metadata , and picture and sound control
through integrated processing amplifiers. The basic HMX6803+ and
OP+HMX+ provide SD and HD-SDI audio embedding, and there is an optional
upgrade to 3G HD-SDI. Another optional upgrade adds four AES inputs, for a
total of eight.
Each HMX6803+ or OP+HMX+ package includes a module-specific breakout
cable with unbalanced (coaxial) audio connectors that expands the number of
available connections beyond what would fit on a standard two-slot back
connector. Balanced AES inputs are supported with external baluns. The
breakout cable includes an RS-232/RS-422 serial connector to embed metadata.
Chapter 1
Introduction
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ can be operated locally (using card-edge
controls); or operated and monitored remotely with control software
applications such as CCS
SNMP-based control applications, or CCS-compliant remote control panels
such as NUCLEUS. The modules are QSEE™-compliant, so you can monitor a
thumbnail when it is installed in an Ethernet-equipped FR6802+QXF or
FR6822+ frame.
The HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ back connector requires two frame slots
within an FR6802+XF, FR6822+, or FR6802+QXF frame. There is no
backward compatibility provided for use with 6800/7000 series frames or
FR6802+DM frames. HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ must be installed in a frame
with fans.

OP+HMX+ modules.
Breakout Cables
Figure 1-2. HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Back Connector
To maintain optimal output video signal integrity, terminate unused output
video BNCs with 75Ω terminators.
The standard HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ ship with an unbalanced breakout
cable, pictured in
Figure 1-3. For information on ordering cables, see Table 2-1
on page 14.
If you need to make your own breakout cable, pinouts are listed in Table 1-4,
and pin numbers for the 44-pin connector are listed in Figure 1-4 on page 8.
