1 Introduction
The NTSC-8 accepts encrypted video signals from a COM46 card via Ethernet, and modulates those eight signals as analog NTSC, standard definition, unencrypted RF channels. One NTSC-8 will modulate eight channels from one COM46 card.
Connecting multiple NTSC-8s to a COM360 chassis using a Gigabit Ethernet switch (not included)
The system offers all the advantages of a COM2000 system including remote management, and is expandable to high definition for cost effective upgrades in the future.
System requires one RU of rack space.
Ventilation fans are rear mounted. The front and rear areas of the NTSC-8 should be kept clear to ensure good airflow.
Included in the box is the NTSC-8 unit and power supply.
Note: Technicolor only supports NTSC-8 installations when interfaced to COM46 cards in a COM360 chassis.
2 Front Panel Connections
All connections to the NTSC-8 are on the front panel as shown in Figure one above.

3 Power Supply
An external AC adaptor is included with the NTSC-8. The power adapter has a locking connector that clicks when properly seated as shown below in Figure 2.

4 Physical Connections
Figure 3 below details the connection of two NTSC-8 units connected to a COM2000 system. If more than one unit is to be connected, a gigabit Ethernet switch (not included) is required between a chassis GbE port and the NTSC-8s. Connect remote management directly to an unused COM360 GbE port or to the GiGe switch.
