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:
• Lead (Pb)
• Mercury (Hg)
• Cadmium (Cd)
• Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
• Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
• Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
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 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Equipment that complies
with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant emblem,
as shown in Figure P-1.
Figure P-1. RoHS Compliance Emblem
x HMX6800+BC8 Installation and Operation Manual
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.)
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
Carefully review all safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent
damage to this product or any products connected to it. If this product is
rack-mountable, it should be mounted in an appropriate rack using the
rack-mounting positions and rear support guides provided. It is
recommended that each frame be connected to a separate electrical
circuit for protection against circuit overloading. If this product relies
on forced air cooling, it is recommended that all obstructions to the air
flow be removed prior to mounting the frame in the rack.
If this product has a provision for external earth grounding, it is
recommended that the frame be grounded to earth via the protective
earth ground on the rear panel.
IMPORTANT! Only qualified personnel should perform service
procedures.

Overview
Chapter 1
Introduction
The HMX6800+BC8 HD/SD Audio Multiplexers embed 8 AES audio
signals, in both balanced and unbalanced formats, into a single 1.5 Gb/s
HD or 270 Mb/s SD video stream. Following SMPTE specifications,
this embedder can embed up to eight AES audio signals into four
groups in the horizontal ancillary region of the HD-SDI or SD-SDI
output signal. The sample rate conversion can be disabled for
Dolby E®/compressed audio compliancy.
HMX6800+BC8 modules auto-detect between HD-SDI and SD-SDI
signals with full channel selection per HD or SD signal. Built-in video
and audio processing amplifiers allow for full control over the picture
and sound.
Each HMX6800+BC8 includes a module-specific breakout cable that
expands the number of available connections beyond what would fit on
a standard two-slot back connector. The breakout cable includes an
RS-422 serial connector to embed metadata.
HMX6800+BC8 modules can be controlled at the card edge; or
controlled and monitored through Pilot Lite, Pilot, Navigator, and
CCS-compliant control panels.
The following topics are described in this chapter:
• “Product Description” on page 2
• “Module Descriptions” on page 3
• “Breakout Cables” on page 6
• “Signal Flow” on page 11

• Video delay for 1 video stream (up to 5 frames for HD and 25
frames for SD)
• Sample rate conversion disable on AES inputs for Dolby /
compressed audio embedding
• Optional ancillary data space cleaning mode before embedding
• 24-bit AES input audio embedding
• Data embedding (Dolby-E metadata)

See the FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for details
on installing back connectors in an FR6802+ frame.
A FR6802+RM (rear support extension rails for 6800+ series frames)
option is recommended for the HMX6800+BC8 modules. See your
FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for installation
instructions.
Installing and Removing Modules
These modules require no specialized installation or removal
procedures. However, if installing both front and rear modules, ensure
that the back module is installed first before plugging in the front
module. When removing both the front and rear modules, ensure that
the front module is unplugged from the frame first, before removing the
rear module.
