Single and dual channel video receiver card features:

• Plug-and-play design for easy installation

• CCTV video equipment compatible

• One-way signal transmission through the system

• AM Video

• NTSC, PAL, SECAM compatible

• Automatic Gain Control (AGC)

• Real time full color video

• Link Pass Through

• Single or dual video channel configuration

• Automatic gain control (contrast and brightness)

The CVIDF20xx-15x video receiver, when paired with
Transition’s camera-mounted transmitter J/VD-Tx-01,
enables the transport of analog CCTV video over a fiber
infrastructure for extended reach video surveillance or
security installations. In extended fiber receiver mode, the
RX sensitivity can be adjusted to accommodate greater
distances.

The chassis card is available in a single video channel or a
dual video channel configuration. All video conversion is
performed in real time. The automatic Gain Control (AGC)
feature automatically adjusts the video contrast and
brightness to maintain the quality and integrity of the
original video stream.

Connector Type Quantity Distance

75-Ohm BNC 2 75-Ohm coax cable, 228m (750ft)
Fiber 2 Model dependent (see below)

The video receiver system has the following types of connectors.

The various fiber connections are available on separate models. Single mode and
multimode receivers come in the following configurations.

Installation

Card handling

1. Keep the CVIDF20xx-15x card in its anti-static bag until ready to install.

2. Wear a grounding strap when removing the card from its anti-static bag.

Distance configuration shunt

The CVIDF20xx-15x card come with a shunt installed in the “S” position on connector
J1 (single channel) and J1/J5 (dual channel) as shown below.

Installation -- continued

J1 and J5 are distance configuration connectors. Position “S” is for standard distances
and “X” is for extended distances. The distances are model dependent.

Installing video card in a Point System chassis

To insert the video card, do the following:

1. Wearing a ground strap, slide the card into an available slot in the Point System
chassis. See photo below.

2. Push the card all the way into the slot (should snap in).

3. Push in and turn the screw clockwise to secure the card to the chassis frame.

Setting up the video system

Equipment needed:

• J/VD-TX-01 fiber transmitter (single or multimode)

• CVIDF20xx-15x video card (single or multimode)

• Video camera

• Monitor

• Coax cable

• Fiber cable

Note: The video transmitter and receiver must be matched: single mode TX/RX or

multimode TX/RX. If installed as a mixed pair, the system will not function.

Caution: Use 75 ohm BNC connectors on 75 ohm cable only. Failure to observe this

caution will result in signal degradation.

Note: See J/VD-TX-01 fiber transmitter manual (#33349) available on the web @

transition.com for specifics.
