  • Page 4 Never look directly into an optical fiber. Non-reversible damage to the eye can occur in a matter of milliseconds. Do not hook up the 7707VAT-HD DWDM cards and 7707VAR-HD cards directly with a short fiber optic cable. The 7707VAT-HD DWDM card produces +7dBm of power which will damage the receiver if connected directly.
  • Page 5: Overview

    7707VAR-HD HDTV with 4 AES Audio Fiber Receiver OVERVIEW The 7707VAR-HD fiber receiver extends one HD or SD digital video signal over a fiber optic link, accompanied by four AES audio signals. Video and audio signals are decoded from a single HD, SD, or SDTi optical transport signal containing embedded audio, which is input from a companion transmitter module.

  • Page 7: Installation

    7707VAR-HD HDTV with 4 AES Audio Fiber Receiver INSTALLATION Each 7707VAR-HD module comes with a companion rear plate that has two BNC connectors, multi-pin removable terminal block connections, and an SC/PC (shown), ST/PC or FC/PC optical connector. The 7707VAR-U-HD modules come with a companion rear plate that has six BNC connectors and one SC/PC, SC/PC with cover (shown), ST/PC or FC/PC optical connector.

    FIBER INPUT: wavelengths from 1270nm to 1610nm, accommodating standard, CWDM or DWDM transmission schemes. Do not hook up the 7707VAT-HD DWDM cards and 7707VAR-HD cards directly with a short fiber optic cable. The 7707VAT-HD DWDM card produces +7dBm of power which will damage the receiver if connected directly.
  • Page 9: Care And Handling Of Optical Fiber

    The transmission characteristics of the fiber are dependent on the shape of the optical core and therefore care must be taken to prevent fiber damage due to heavy objects or abrupt fiber bending. Evertz recommends that the user maintains a minimum bending radius of 5 cm to avoid fiber-bending loss that will decrease the maximum attainable distance of the fiber cable.
