  • Page 6 7700 MultiFrame Manual 7707VAR SDI with 2 AES Audio Fiber Receiver WARNING 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 DWDM cards and 7707VAR cards directly with a short fiber optic cable.
  • Page 7: Overview

    The 7707VAR-U is similar in features to the 7707VAR but has unbalanced audio connections. Evertz’s patent pending SoftSwitch™ technology is applied to the received signal to ensure virtually glitch- free AES Audio output signals when upstream SDI or AES feeds are switched. Throughout this manual both references to the 7707VAR include the 7707VAR-U and 7707VAR-A4 unless specifically noted otherwise.

  • Page 9: Installation

    7700 MultiFrame Manual 7707VAR SDI with 2 AES Audio Fiber Receiver INSTALLATION The 7707VAR and 7707VAR-A4 modules come with a companion rear plate that has two BNC connectors, one terminal header with removable terminal block and one SC/PC, SC/PC with cover (shown), ST/PC or FC/PC optical connector.
  • Page 10: Aes Audio Connections (Model 7707Var)

    7700 MultiFrame Manual 7707VAR SDI with 2 AES Audio Fiber Receiver Do not hook up the 7707VAT DWDM cards and 7707VAR cards directly with a short fiber optic cable. The 7707VAT DWDM card produces +7dBm of power which will damage the receiver if connected directly.
  • Page 11 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.
