environments, includes gigabit Ethernet for easy integration with IP networks for movement of content. NEXIO features
industry-leading productivity — with the introduction of Ingest Control Manager
™
, NewsFlash™server-based NLE,
and BrowseCutter
™
II low-resolution editing system — to provide the fastest and most effective workflow today.
The advent of fully Integrated Content Environments has led to significant efficiency improvements in workflow, with processing
and monitoring now integrated and transparent.
NEO
™
, Leitch’s advanced processing platform, not only hosts single-function modules, but also consolidates multiple functions on
a single “Simplicity” card. New award-winning modules have been added with the NEO VR
™
digital video recorder, LogoMotion
™

scalable routing of almost any digital signal up to 128x128 in a single frame. All processing and routing platforms are fully
integrated with Leitch’s advanced Command Control System (CCS
™
).
Advancements in digital technologies have enabled more channels, in different content formats, over multiple distribution
systems. Customers now seek to achieve their vision of a fully Integrated Content Environment to supply multiple distribution
channels with high-quality content and branding.
Leitch’s NEXIO transmission server, which supports multiple compression formats in both standard and high-definition resolution,
will also support ASI interface and has the ability to record, process and playback MPEG transport streams.
Leitch’s Opus
™
master control switcher offers an array of effects and has the ability to control up to 16 on-air channels. Opus
meets multi-channel digital integration challenges for both high-definition and standard-definition formats.
Integrated Content Environments offer the greatest opportunity for productivity and performance gains when employing content
management and control applications that place content, operations or remote locations under common software controls.
A major workflow enhancement is Leitch’s Ingest Control Manager
™
, which places control of up to 16 server channels
with associated proc amps (DPS-575), eight VTRs and eight separate routers under one control station.

880 Series Mounting Frames
Overview
The 880 series, 8-output audio distribution amplifiers meet the most demanding
requirements for AM/FM/TV broadcast and program production systems.
Heading the list of the amplifier’s exceptional performance characteristics is the
100 dB S/N ratio. Flat frequency response, carefully controlled roll-off and very
low distortion ensure a virtually transparent transmission path.
The amplifier’s input is overvoltage protected up to 120 volts AC or DC. The
transformerless, balanced input is normally bridging, but can be terminated by
installing a suitable resistor. Unbalanced input is converted to balanced output.
Chapter 1
Isolation between modules in the mounting frame is better than 100 dB over the
entire audio frequency band.
The modular concept with two fully wired mounting frame options facilitates
system design. The options are as follows:
• The FR-881/883 mounting frame accepts up to four 880 series audio
distribution amplifier modules. The FR-881 frame accepts one 882PS
power supply while the FR-883 frame accepts one 884PS power supply.
• The FR-882/884 mounting frame accepts up to twelve 880 series audio
distribution amplifier modules. The FR-882 frame accepts two 882PS
power supplies while the FR-883 frame accepts two 884PS power supplies.
A fully loaded frame will operate with a single power supply; however,
Leitch recommends that a second optional power supply be included for
cooler operation and power redundancy.
• The high efficiency, shielded switching power supply accepts line inputs
from 90 to 135 VAC without changing transformer taps.

Frame Cooling
The equipment is designed to operate in an ambient temperature range of 32° F
– 122° F (0° C – 50° C). No special cooling arrangements are necessary, but you
should take steps to prevent excessive ambient heat rise in closed, unventilated
equipment racks.
Power Consumption
The FR-881 mounting frame accepts one 882PS power supply while the FR-883

frame accepts one 884PS power supply. The FR-881/883 frame power
consumption is nominally 25VA.
The FR-882 mounting frame accepts one 882PS power supply while the FR-884
frame accepts one 884PS power supply. Both frames are prewired to accept a
second optional power supply for power backup. Their power consumption is
nominally 65VA. It should be pointed out that a fully loaded frame will operate
with a single power supply. However, it is recommended that a second optional
power supply be included for cooler operation and power redundancy.

Chapter 1: 880 Series Mounting Frames
Power Supply
882PS
The 882PS power supply is a two-stage switching power supply that provides
the following outputs:
• +21V at 1.0A
• –21V at 1.0A
Initial design criteria focused on maximizing efficiency and minimizing
individual component temperature rise. This has been achieved with a two stage
design consisting of an input “Buck” converter feeding a high efficiency
push-pull output stage. Overall efficiency exceeds 80% and individual
component temperature rise is minimized by operating both converts at high
voltage and low current as well as using Schottky rectifier diodes on the output
stage.
The power supply is designed to work over the two standard input voltage
ranges. With jumper J1 installed the power supply operates over an input range
of 85-135VAC and with jumper J1 removed the operating range is
170-270VAC. Output voltage is adjustable by ±10%. Other output voltages can
be achieved by changing power transformer TR1 without any additional circuit
changes.
884PS
The model 884PS power supply is a two-stage switching power supply that
provides that provides the following outputs:
• +21V at 1.0A
• –21V at 1.0A
Initial design criteria focused on maximizing efficiency and minimizing
individual component temperature rise. This has been achieved with a two stage
design consisting of an input “Buck” converter feeding a high efficiency
push-pull output stage. Overall efficiency exceeds 80% and individual
component temperature rise is minimized by operating both converts at high
voltage and low current as well as using Schottky rectifier diodes on the output
stage.
The power supply is designed to work over the two standard input voltage
ranges. With input selector switch S2 in the 110 position, the power supply
operates over and input range of 85 – 135VAC and with the switch in the 220
position the operating range is 170 – 270VAC. Output voltage is adjustable by
±10%. Other output voltages can be achieved by changing power transformer
TR1 without any additional circuit changes.

Cable Harness Support Bracket
The cable support bracket is made up of three parts:
• 1 right side bracket
• 1 left side bracket
• 1 cable support bar
The brackets screw to the back of the frame using an existing black screw. The
screw is in the vertical center of the frame, 1¼ inches forward of the back edge.
There is one screw on the right side of the frame at the very back of the frame.
This screw is not removed. A clearance hole in the bracket will fit over this
screw. There are two holes in the side of the brackets. The bottom of the bracket
sits on the top edge of the bottom of the frame. Remove the screw from the side
of the frame, place the bracket and replace the screw. Mount the cable support
bar with a 6-32 x 3/8-inch binder head screw to each bracket.

ADA-816 Audio Distribution Amplifier
Module
Overview
The ADA-816 is a high quality audio distribution amplifier that provides 16
low-impedance outputs. Excellent output isolation is assured by the use of
individual drivers in each output. The amplifier is designed to meet the most
demanding requirements for AM/FM/TV broadcast and program production
systems.
Heading the list of the amplifier’s exceptional performance characteristics is the
95 dB S/N ratio. Flat frequency response, carefully controlled roll-off and very
low distortion ensure a virtually transparent transmission path. The
transformerless, balanced input accepts a nominal level of +8 dBu. Although
normally bridging, it can be terminated by installing a suitable resistor. The
input is overvoltage protected up to 120 volts AC or DC. Nominal output level
is –10 dBV, unbalanced.
Chapter 2
Isolation between modules in the mounting frame is better than 90 dB over the
entire audio frequency band.
