INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing your American Fibertek MT-91P088SL singlemode video transmitter with two channels
of bi-directional audio. Please take a few minutes to read these installation instructions in order to obtain the
maximum performance from this product.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The MT-91P088SL operates as half of a transmitter / receiver pair for the transmission of high performance 10 bit
digital NTSC, PAL, RS170, or RS343 video signals. The MT-91P088SL also supports two bi-directional channels
of four wire audio. The MT-91P088SL is designed to operate with the MR-91P088SL or RR-91P088SL video
receiver over one singlemode fiber optic cable.
The MT-91P088SL multiplexes a single video input signal along with two audio signals into a high speed serial
data stream. This serial data stream modulates a laser at 1310 nm wavelength. The MT-91P088SL also detects
and demultiplexes a return optical serial data stream signal containing two audio signals at 1550 nm wavelength.
The 91P088SL Series product is designed to operate over an optical loss budget range of 0 to 21 dB. Refer to the
data sheet for detailed performance specifications.
This unit is contained in a rugged aluminum housing with internal dc voltage regulation. The detachable terminal
blocks and LED indicators provide for easy installation and monitoring of video, audio, and optical power. The MT-
91P088SL is designed for mounting as a modular stand alone unit. For a rack mounted version please see the
RT-91P088SL.
INSTALLATION
THIS INSTALLATION SHOULD BE MADE BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON AND SHOULD CONFORM TO
THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70 AND LOCAL CODES.
Mount the unit to a secure surface using #8 (3mm) hardware in four places. See the drawing on the next page for
mounting dimensions. Be sure to allow sufficient room for the required minimum bend radius of the fiber cable
used.
POWER SOURCE
THIS PRODUCT SHALL BE POWERED BY A LISTED CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY ONLY.
This unit requires a +12VDC power source with a current rating of 1.25 amps for proper operation. The DC input
is diode protected. In the USA and in Canada an American Fibertek PS-12D is supplied with this unit. The
negative side of the power input is directly connected to ground. ANSI/NFPA 70 Class 2 wiring is recommended.
