SG 2000 Instal lation and Opera tion Manual
2-4 Overview
Power Supply
The SG 2000 power supply (SG2-PS2) is located in the housing lid to optimize heat transfer and to
balance the thermal load between the base and the lid . F or high rel iab il ity or redun dancy
applications, two power supplies can be used. An umbilical cord connects the SG2-PS2 to the lid
motherboard (LIDB).
A flexible power-distribution design enables you to power the node from any of the four RF ports.
Using fuses and shunts you can configure the node to distribute power to the remaining active ports.
You can also power the node locally through the ac only port (port 2) while a second cable-plant
power supply loops through the other two main RF ports.
The power supply includes a heavy-duty, gas discharge tube surge protector located on the amplifier
module. You can replace this surge protector with the optional FTEC surge protector. The FTEC
triggers at approximately 230 V and presents a short circuit to the line during periods of over
voltage. After the ac input voltage returns to normal, the FTEC returns to its open-circuit state. This
provides the node with a level of protection against surge currents on the ac line. The same protector
is used for both supplies unless the split ac-feed option is implemented; then, the secondary or
redundant power supply is protected by a conventional heavy-duty gas discharge tube.
The 20-ampere fuses are installed at the factory to provide power passing to additional amplifiers.
Section 3, “Bench Setup,” discusses fusing options that are also diagrammed in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-2 illustrates the location of the fuses.
The SG 2000 optical node can be powered from either 60 Vac or 90 Vac system power supplies. The
unit is shipped from the factory set for 60 Vac powering. For systems equipped with 90 Vac
powering, the suitcase jumper on the dc power supply can be repositioned to optimize the supply
start-up voltage for the higher input range. Section 3, “Bench Setup” provides a description of this
procedure.

Forward Path
The multiple receiver functionality of the platform accommodates split-band and/or redundancy
applications. A typical split-band configuration has analog signals in the 52 MHz through 550 MHz
band feeding one receiver (C location in Figure 2-6). Digital transmissions or narrowcast signals are
carried between 450/550 MHz and 870 MHz on another fiber and processed by the second receiver
(A location). You can use the optional third receiver (B location) as a back up in the event that the
narrowcast receiver loses optical signal input. Automatic path switchover occurs through either the
optional status monitoring or manual control-board modules.

SG 2000 Instal lation and Opera tion Manual
2-8 Overview
To assess fiber link status, the optical-power monitor circuit is active at all times (even when the
receiver is disabled). An integrated optical bulkhead connector and module link status indicators
enhance fiber management and reduce troubleshooting time. The receiver module is fully compatible
with the status monitor transponder for remote monitoring of key module and link performance
parameters.
Several plug-in boards are available to configure the SG 2000 lid board for single, redundant, or
narrowcast receiver arrangements. A low-noise pre-amplifier hybrid amplifies the signal to a level
suitable for connection to the RF chassis.
An SG2-FRB flatness board, at the input to the RF chassis, compensates for hybrid and accessory
response signatures. A variable attenuator circuit enables fine adjustment of the output level, and is
driven either by the standard thermal control unit (TCU) or optional ADU pilot automatic gain
control (AGC) module to compensate for tempera tur e and input lev el var ia tion s.
The MDR-*/* circuit board provides a fixed linear equalizer for either 750 MHz or 870 MHz. This
equalizer comes in numerous values to support various levels of output tilt. The MDR board also
compensates for the low frequency roll-off inherent in plug-in diplexers.
A driver-hybrid amplifies the signal to a sufficiently high level to feed up to four power-doubling
output stages. These output hybrids can be either conventional silicon or premium gallium arsenide
types for even higher station output at low distortion. Plug-in facilities are available ahead of each
output stage for individual equalizer boards. These can be installed to customize the tilt for the
various ports. At one output, a minus 16 dB directional coupler provides signal to the optional ADU
and status-monitor modules. This signal is used only when either or both of these options is installed.
It is not necessary to terminate the coupler output when neither option is present.
Minus 20 dB directional test points are available at various points in the signal paths of the node.
Because these test points are 75-ohm source impedance, special test probes are not required.
Model JXP-* attenuator pads are used for adjusting signal levels within the signal path. The unit is
shipped with JXP-ZX versions installed.

SG2-LR Receiver
The receiver module (SG2-LR) is designed specifically for high performance in the SG 2000. The
SG2-LR receiver uses an integrated optical-hybrid photo-detector for improved RF performance over
the entire 40 MHz through 870 MHz passband. It is enabled and disabled in response to a signal
from the status monitor transponder or manual control board (MCB). This provides excellent
isolation, improved reliability, and reduced power consumption when the receiver is used in
redundant applications.

Analog Return Path
Similar to the multiple optical receivers, the dual return-path optical transmitters also have
split-return or redundant functionality. In split-return applications two of the four RF return signals
are fed to one optical transmitter while the remaining two return signals are fed to the second
transmitter.
Signal levels are adjusted in each return path using model JXP-* attenuator pads. Units are shipped
with a JXP-5 (5 dB) attenuator pad at the input position of each installed transmitter. If only one
transmitter is in the unit, there will be a 15 dB pad at the second transmitter input position to serve as
a termination. Ingress switching is also an available option. If ingress switches are not used, JXP-2
pads are installed.
When configured for redundancy, both return lasers are active and transmit the combined RF return
signals simultaneously. Or, they can be activated independently using the status monitor transponder
or the MCB. In the event of path failure, return path redundancy is accomplished at the headend or
the receive site by switching to the alternate or active return fiber.
Analog Return Transmitters
Five optical analog return transmitters are available to meet the needs of most return applications.
Table 2-1 identifies and describes the five analog return transmitters:

The transmitters include thermal compensation circuitry to minimize the change in received optical
and RF signal level at the headend as the node temperature varies. To reduce power consumption and
enhance reliability, the transmitters can be enabled and disabled in response to a signal from the
status monitor transponder or the MCB. An integrated optical bulkhead connector and module status
indicators enhance fiber management and reduce troubleshooting time. For remote monitoring of key
module performance parameters, the return modules are fully compatible with the status-monitor
transponder.

Digital Return Path
The digital return transmitter series (DS-SG2-DRT*) converts a broadband analog RF return-path
signal into digital optical signals with 10-bit resolution.
The transmitters used for digital return applications are divided into two families: DS-SG2-DRT/A
and DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A.
Seven digital return transmitters per family are available to meet the needs of most digital return
applications.
Table 2-2 identifies the fourteen opti cal dig it al re turn transmitters:

multiplexing (WDM) in the DS-SG2-DRT/A-15XX DFB and DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A-15XX DFB
windows.
DS-SG2-DRT/A
The DS-SG2-DRT/A digitizes a single analog 5-42 MHz return path signal to produce a 1.6 Gbps
data stream. This data stream is then routed to a digital laser for transmission to a corresponding
digital return receiver. The node can be configured with one or two DS-SG2-DRT/A transmitters,
with dual transmitters providing redundancy. In conjunction with these transmitters, the node must
also be configured with the SG2 Return Path Module/Combined (SG2-RPM/C). The return signals
from all four ports are combined and fed to the optical transmitters.
SG 2000 Instal lation and Opera tion Manual
Overview 2-13
When configured for redundancy , both return transm it t ers are normally active and transmit th e
combined RF return signal simultaneously. In the event of path failure, continuity of service is
accomplished at the headend or the receiver site by switching to the alternate or active return fiber.
Signal levels are adjusted in each return path using Model JXP-* attenuator pads. Units are shipped
with a JXP-5 (5 dB) attenuator pad at the input position of each installed transmitter. If only one
transmitter is installed, there will be a 15 dB pad at the second transmitter input position to serve as a
termination.
DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A
The DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A has two separate RF inputs. The transmitter digitizes these two independent
analog 5-42 MHz return-path signals to produce two 1.25 Gbps data streams. These two data streams
are then multiplexed to create a single 2.5 Gbps data stream that is then routed to a digital laser for
transmission to a corresponding digital return receiver. In conjunction with these transmitters, the
node must also be configured with the SG2 Return Path Module/Split (SG2-RPM/S). Return signals
from two of the four node ports are fed to one RF input of the transmitter while the remaining two
return signals are fed to the second RF input. The signal paths for both inputs are explained in more
detail in Section 5, “Operation”.
Signal levels are adjusted in each return path using Model JXP-* attenuator pads. The transmitter
gets one of its RF signals automatically when the unit is plugged into its appropriate slot. The second
RF signal comes through a special adapter from the adjacent connector, which is normally available
for installing a redundant transmitter. Therefore, the units are shipped with two JXP-5 attenuator
pads at the input positions.
Ingress control switching is an available option with any return transmitter configuration. If ingress
switches are not used, JXP-2 pads are installed in each ingress switch position on the main RF board.
The node can be configured with one or two DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A transmitters, with dual transmitters
providing redundancy. The redundancy configuration is explained in more detail in Section 5,
“Operation”.
Section 5, “Operation,” also provides detailed information and block diagrams for each series of
digital transmitters.
SG 2000 Instal lation and Opera tion Manual
2-14 Overview
Level Control
The gain of hybrid IC amplifiers varies with temperature. In addition, changes in system channel
loading and/or splices in the fiber link can change the level of the received signal.
The standard TCU board compensates for anticipated hybrid gain changes by sensing housing
temperature and signaling needed changes to the RF attenuator.
The ADU board, an optional plug-in module, monitors the amplitude of a selected pilot frequency.
The pilot frequency is an available analog television channel not scrambled by the sync suppression
method. Any changes in amplitude are fed back to the RF attenuator that makes appropriate
corrections.
The input to the ADU contains a JXP-* pad. The factory-installed value of this pad is 6 dB (JXP-6)
for bridger level outputs and 0 dB (JXP-ZX) for trunk level outputs. Under normal conditions, it
should not be changed.

Gain Selection
Figures 2-9 through 2-13 illustrate SG 2000 gain and tilt selection charts based on frequency and
channel load options.
To use the gain option selection charts, Figures 2-9 and 2-10, first find the point on the left hand axis
that corresponds to the expected optical input power at the node. Move across this horizontal line to
the right until it intersects a vertical line corresponding to the desired RF output level.
If this intersection is above and to the left of the diagonal “lo gain limit” line for the channel loading
under consideration, the low-gain option will give optimum performance with minimum padding. If
the intersection lies between the “lo gain limit” and “hi gain limit” lines, then choose the high-gain
option. Operation at a combination of input and output levels below and to the right of the “hi gain
limit” line is not possible.

Bench Setup
Before you install the SG 2000 you must set it up to meet the power and configuration requirements
for the node location. Bench set-up and quick check procedures are recommended to ensure proper
functioning of all components and simplify field installation. The last two pages of this section
provide an SG 2000 activation worksheet for you to record all pertinent setup information.
To facilitate on-line replacement, “hot-plugging” — inserting and removing optical modules and
power supplies — on SG 2000s equipped with redundant supplies, is possible with the node powered
and operational.

Powering the Node
You can conveniently power the SG 2000 by applying 60 Vac or 90 Vac to housing port 2. This port
is not used for RF purposes. All ports are rated at 15 amperes maximum and are fused with common,
blade-type 20-ampere automotive f uses. The 10-ampere fuse protects the dc power supply wiring
and can also be used to disconnect ac power from the power supply.
In addition to providing overcurrent protection, fuse locations also determine the paths for ac
bypassing through the housing.

Note that no damage results if the jumper is not changed. In a 90 Vac system, changing the jumper
ensures that the dc supply does not turn on until the proper i nput voltage level is reached. This
prevents excessive loading of the cable plant power supply during t urn-on after a power-off situation.

A second, optional dc power supply located in the lid of the SG 2000, offers full redundancy. Both
power supplies are on-line continuously and share the current load. In the event one supply fails, the
other assumes the entire load with no disruption of service. Each dc supply can deliver 4.3 A at
+24 V and 0.69 A at +5 V. Test points are provided for 24 Vdc and 5 Vdc supplies. Green LEDs—
two on each power supply and one on the RF chassis—indicate the overall health of the nodes dc
power bus. The power supply is factory calibrated for 24 V and should not need output voltage
adjustment. Power supply adjustment R51 is available but should be used only by qualified
personnel. When dual supplies are used, the supply with the lower output voltage sets the output
voltage of both supplies. Adjusting R51 on the other supply appears to have no visible effect.
However, if the “leading” supply fails, the misadjusted supply undergoes a sudden, large voltage
change. Figure 3-5 illustrates the location of R51 (
ADJ).
The ac input from the feederline to the power supply must be between 44 V and 90 Vrms with a line
frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz. The wave shape of the input voltage must be quasi-squarewave. The
power supply features a self-protection attribute that shuts it down for instantaneous line voltages
between 112-142 Vrms. A precision output regulator protects against overcurrent and short circuits,
thus providing a precise output voltage.
By selectively positioning a jumper (JP1) on the SG 2000 lid motherboard (LIDB), the power supply
can be configured to conform to different power requirements. Figure 3-1 illustrates the location of

Quick Checks - Functional Testing
It is recommended that you perform the procedures presented in the following subsections before
you place the SG 2000 in service.
Forward Path
Figure 3-1 illustrates the location of the forward-path receiver modules.
To set up the forward-path receivers:
1 Confirm the receiver configuration required. For a single receiver configuration use position C.
For redundant receivers use optical receiver A and B positions. Redundancy options are
discussedinSection5,“Operation.”
2 Test the optical power input level using an optical power meter. Figure 5-10 illustrates the
optical power test point on the top panel of the SG2-LR receiver module. The scaled voltage
present at this test point is 1.0 V/mW. For 0 dBm (1.0 mW) input, the receiver output is
approximately a flat 25 dBmV per channel for 77 channels. Other output levels are presented in
Table 5-2.
3 Verify that the green LED (ON), located on the top panel of the receiver, is illuminated to
confirmenable status.
4 Verify that the green LED (NORM), also located on the top panel of the r eceiver, is illuminated to
confirm that the optical power is within the recommended operating range. See Section 5,
“Operation” for other LED functions.
5 Select a JXP-* pad from Table 3-2 or Table 3-3. Insert it to the left of the receiver at the receiver
pad facility. The test point and pad location for receiver C is located adjacent to the receiver as
illustrated in Figure 3-1.
6 Check all four outputs at the amplifier test points located in the four corners of the RF chassis
cover as illustrated in Figure 3-4. These test points have 20 dB loss. Therefore, for example, if
the output is 44 dBmV, the test point should read 24 dBmV.
If all ports are operated at the same level, use port 2 to set the output level.
If all ports are not the same and port 2 is used as a “trunk” output and operated at a lower level,
then use port 3 to set the output level.

Remeasure the output level. It should be within 1 dB of the preferred level. If necessary, adjust
the manual gain control. Check the remaining ports and add JX P pads to bring the outputs to the
correct level.
10 Set the gain reserves using one of the following gain control options. Adjust the selected gain
control option using the procedure presented in the appropriate subsection below.
S Manual control only — there is no compensation for changes in amplifier gain due to input
level or temperature fluctuations.
T Thermal control — the standard thermal control unit (TCU) is installed at the factory and
compensates for gain changes due to temperature fluctuations only.
T Automatic level control — the optional ADU drive unit holds output levels constant despite
fluctuations in temperature or input level. The ADU is available as a factory-installed option.
You can also install an ADU in place of the standard TCU in the field.
Manual Gain Control
1 Connect a signal level meter to the FORWARD TEST POINT and tune it to a channel near 750 MHz.
2 Position the drive selector horizontally. Figure 3-2 illustrates the location of the AUTO/MAN drive
selector.
3 Turn the gain control (MAN ADJ) to maximum (fully clockwise) and then turn it
counterclockwise to reduce the output by 4 dB. If the output level is greater than required,
change the pad at the receiver output location to obtain the desired level. To calculate the correct
pad value, subtract the desired level from the measured level and increase the pad by that
amount. Note: Do not install a pad larger than 15 dB at the receiver output. If more attenuation is
needed, put the remaining amount at the interstage pad location.
Thermal Control, Model TCU
1 Perform steps 1 through 3 under Manual Gain Control.
2 Position the drive unit selector vertically.
3 Turn the level control potentiometer on the TCU to the preferred output level.
Automatic Level Control, Model ADU
The system must contain a non-scrambled analog channel at the ADU pilot frequency.
1 Perform steps 1 through 3 under Manual Gain Control.
2 Position the drive unit selector vertically.
3 Turn the ADU ADJ control on the main board to the preferred output level.

Forward Path Padding
The pad values, presented in Table 3-2 or Table 3-3, serve as a starting-point reference f or typical
installations. While this chart i s prepared specifically for 77 channel loading and the low-gain option,
the difference for 110 channel loading is approximately 1 to 2 dB less.
It may be necessary to select a JXP value 1 dB or 2 dB lower for the receiver output (amplifier input)
pad t han shown in Tables 3-2 or 3 -3. This may be required to balance the four outputs for level,
which can only be done with the output stage pads. If the optical levels are high, the transmitter’s
optical modulation index (OMI) is higher than specified, or if the target output is low, the output pad
may already be a non-zero value as indicated in Tables 3-2 or 3-3. To ensure that the target output
level is reached on the lowest-level output branch, select input pads of at least 1 dB value for the
output pad.
Pads values shown are minimum values expected. If more padding is needed, increase the receiver
pads to a maximum of 15 dB and place the rest of the required attenuation at the interstage pad
facility.

Launch Amplifier Output Stage Padding
By definition the launch amplifier is everything between the optical receiver RF output and the node
output connector. The launch amplifier output-stage pad-effects charts show the tradeoff, over a
range of output levels, between composite triple beat (CTB) and carrier-to-noise ratio ( c/n) when
pads are inserted ahead of the individual output hybrids. It is assumed that the output of the link is
constant, so that the same amount of attenuation is removed from the pad facility at the receiver
output. The four pairs of curves, illustrated in Figures 3-8 and 3-9, are for pad values of 0, 3, 6, and
10 dB. An overall tilt of 12.5 dB is assumed for the 750 MHz model and 11.5 dB for the 870 MHz

Link Performance
The SG 2000-* link performance charts are meant as a guide to assist you when working with
varying link parameters. The link is defined as beginning at the transmitter RF input and ending at
the RF output j ack on the SG2-LR optical receiver. These charts show the effects of changes in fiber
loss and receiver optical power input on c/n, CTB, and composite second order (CSO).
The particular curve along which incident optical power should be equated to c/n is determined by
the fiber loss budget in the system. This must only include fiber loss; no connector or splitting losses
should be included in this number. Because these curves require knowing only the fiber loss and the
received optical power, transmitter power is not a factor. The transmitter is assumed to have a
relative intensity noise (RIN) of –158 dB/Hz.
Figures 3-10 and 3-11 illustrate the distortion curves and show the changes in CTB and CSO that can
be expected at higher optical inputs. These charts assume transmitter CTB of –66 dBc and CSO of
–62 dBc for 77 channel loading. For 110-channel loading, the transmitter assumptions are –64 dBc
CTB and –61 dBc CSO.

Section 4
Installation
Installation consists of splicing the six-fiber service cable to the transportation fiber, installing the
housing and electronics on the messenger strand, applying power, and placing the unit in service.
To avoid excess weight and the possibility of damage during installation, the housing is normally
mounted prior to inclusion of the electronic components. It is assumed that the node components
have been removed, configured, and tested on the bench and only minimal alignment may be
required following field installation.
Splicing Fiber
The six-fiber service cable can be spliced to the transportation cable at any time during the node
installation. Splicing does not need to coincide with the installation of the housing.
Fusion splicing is recommended because it has low insertion loss and is the most reliable method. A
technician experienced in splicing fiber should do the splicing.
To perform fusion splicing:
1 Obtain the 50-foot, six-fiber service cable with the compression fitting from the node package.
Figure 4-1 illustrates this cable:

4 Complete the splicing and installation of the splice enclosure. Suspend the extra cable from the
messenger using locally accepted methods. Commonly used methods include suspending it from
the messenger along its entire length, and/or fashioning a figure eight coil and suspending it from
the messenger.
If you intend to install the housing at a later time, protect the end of the service cable with the
compression fitting and the fiber connectors from dirt and moisture.

This enables the clamps to slide along the strand wire until the housing is finally positioned with
respect to the cables.
4 Re-install all modules and electronic components that were removed before the housing was
installed.
Connections to the housing are made using standard KS-type housing port entry connectors. Pin-type
connectors with a nominal center conductor diameter of 0.067 inches are required. Measuring from
the seating plane of the connector, the center conductor pin length must be 1.50 inches minimum and
1.65 inches maximum.

To install coaxial cable s in the base:
1 Loosen, but do not remove, the three bolts on top of the housing and the bolt on each side of the
housing. Rotate these bolts away from the cover.
2 Swing the housing lid away from the lower housing base.
3 Remove the protective port cap(s) in the base and verify that the seizure screw within either the
trunk or feeder port is loosened to accept the center pin of the cable connector.
4 Secure the cable end in the cable connector as described in the instruction sheet for the
connector.
5 Insert the center conductor fully until it enters the seizure mechanism. Tighten the terminal
screw onto the cable connector and torque to 12 in-lbs (1 ft-lb).
6 Repeat steps 3 through 5 for all other cable connections required.
7 Protect all cable connections with heat-shrink tape or tubing.
8 Lash the cables to the strand where they approach it and secure the cable lashing wire to the
strand with commercial clamps.
9 Verify that port plugs on any unused ports are firmly seated and torqued to 5 ft-lbs.
Fiber Cables
To install fiber cables in th e lid:
1 Remove the protective port plug from the side of the housing lid and carefully pass the
connector ends of the fiber service cable through this port. It is necessary to insert one
connector at a time. Be careful not to bend the fiber any more than is necessary.
2 Thread the compression fitting into the port. The compression nut and rubber grommet must be
sufficiently loose to enable the fitting to be turned without turning the fiber cable at the same
time. Torque the main body of the fitting to 60 to 72 in-lbs (5 to 6 ft-lbs).

as illustrated in Figure 3-1. A JXP-15A (15 dB) pad must also be installed in the pad facility at the B
transmitter location to terminate the signal from the return-path-module combiner board
(SG2-RPM/C).
For single return applications, the SG2-LIDB distributes an individual RF signal from the RF chassis
to transmitter A. Installing an optional second transmitter (B) provides return redundancy as
illustrated in Figure 5-7. Installing a redundant B transmitter also requires that you change the pad at
that location to a JXP-5A.

Alternatively, a second transmitter can be used to double the available return bandwidth by having
each transmitter carry the return signals from only two ports. This is illustrated in Figure 5-8. It
requires that the SG2-RPM/C (located on the bottom side of the RF chassis) be changed to a
return-path-module split board (SG2-RPM/S) as illustrated in Figure 5-9:

Wavelength Selection Jumper
The SG2-LR can be used with either 1310 nm or 1550 nm transmitters. An internal wavelength
selection jumper optimizes the optical power test point and optical power status indicator calibration
for the system wavelength. Note that the jumper has no effect on the optical-to-RF performance
(gain, flatness, slope) of the module.
The wavelength selection jumper is factory-set and provides optimum calibration in a 1310 nm
system.
If you need to reset the jumper:
1 If necessary, remove the SG2-LR from the node.
2 Remove the five screws securing the sheet metal cover to the module casting and remove the
cover. Note the position of the optical connector assembly so that you can replace it in the same
position when you re-assemble the module.
3 Carefully lift the fiber coiling tray until the wavelength selection jumper is visible. To avoid
damaging the fiber, do not lift the tray any more than is necessary to expose the wavelength
selection jumper.
4 Position the jumper block on the appropriate pins for the desired wavelength. Figure 5-15
illustrates the circui t board wh ich is labe led to fac ilit at e this step :

DS-SG2-DRT/A Digital Return Transmitter
The DS-SG2-DRT/A is an SG2 return tr ansmitter that digitizes a sing le analog 5 MHz-42 MHz
return-path signal to produce a 1.6 Gbps data stream. This data stream is then routed to a digital laser
for transmission to a corresponding digital return receiver.
The transmitter can be configured with a digital laser wavelength that is applicable to the required
link length. An automatic power control (APC) system regulates the optical output power from the
laser. User-accessible input level-control adjustments enable you to adjust the transmitter +2 to
−13 dB from an input level of 15 dBmV. All transmitter status-monitor information is available at
the digital return receiver.
To facilitate easy upgrades, the DS-SG2-DRT/A fits the same footprint and has the same set-up
levels as the analog return transmitters.

DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A Digital Return Transmitter
The DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A is an SG2 return transmitter that digitizes two independent analog
5 MHz-42 MHz return-path signals to produce two 1.25 Gbps data streams. These two data streams
are then multiplexed to create a 2.5 Gbps data stream. This data stream is then routed to a digital
laser for transmission to a corresponding digital return receiver.
The transmitter can be configured with a digital laser wavelength that is applicable to the required
link length. An APC system regulates the optical output power from the laser. Two user-accessible
input level-control adjustments enable you to independently adjust the transmitter input levels +2 to
−13 dB from an input level of 15 dBmV. All transmitter status-monitor information is available at
the digital return receiver.
To facilitate easy upgrades, the DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A fits the same footprint and has the same set-up
levels as the analog return transmitters.
Figure 5-23 illustrates a block diagram of the DS-SG2-DRT-2X/A:

Manual Control Board
The SG 2000 manual control board (SG2-MCB) serves to locally control redundancy functions and
ingress switch operation if a status monitor is not installed. Figure 3-2 illustrates the MCB board
mounted on the main RF board in place of the status monitor. Inputs to the MCB are the received
optical power signals from both the A and B receivers, scaled at 1 V/mW.
The MCB board contains two 3-gang, dual-in-line-package (DIP) switches and five screwdriver
adjustable potentiometers. Table 5-11 provides descriptions and functions of these user-interface
settings:

Ingress Control
The SG 2000 platform incorporates electronic ingress control switching enabling operators to choose
one of three options for troubleshooting noise sources. A maximum of four switches, (one ingress
switch per RF port) can populate the RF amplifier. Figure 3-2 illustrates their location on the RF
chassis.
Ingress switches are controlled in one of two ways: (1) remotely — through the optional on-board
LL-SG2 transponder in communication with the status monitoring system or; (2) locally — using the
manual control board (MCB).
The three states of the switch and their functions include:
State Description

Effectively isolates the contaminated leg by adding a minimum of 40 dB attenuation.
Typically initiated at the headen d, it pro v ides –6 dB ad dit ion al atte nuat io n to the retur n
signal. This is useful in diagnosing noise presence without interfering with normal
service.
Completes the return path without alteration to the return signal.
