Connecting the VS-88FO

This section describes how to connect the VS-88FO. The VS-88FO can switch one

of the eight fiber optic inputs to any or all of the eight fiber optic outputs, as the

example in

Figure 3

shows.

Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your
VS-88FO. After connecting your VS-88FO, connect its power and then

switch on the power to each device.

The customer can replace any SFP module with a standard SFP
module but Kramer guarantees correct operation only with Kramer
supplied modules.

All SFP modules (up to eight) must be of the same type: either MSA or

non-MSA.

Only modules Laser Class I acc. 21 CFR 1040 and Class 1 per IEC

60825-1 are allowed in this product.

The following optional SFP modules are tested and approved for use with the

VS-88FO:

SFP-IN/OUT-2KM

– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 2km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx

SFP-IN/OUT-30KM

– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 30km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx

SFP-IN/OUT-40KM

– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 40km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx

To connect the VS-88FO, do the following:

1. If SFP modules are preinstalled in your unit, go to step 4 below (and ignore

steps 1 to 3). If not, continue with step 2.

2. Insert an SFP module into each IN/OUT slot to be used (see

Section

5.1

).

3. Set the SFP Select button on the rear panel depending on the type of SFP

used. Press in for Non-MSA and release for MSA. The setting is saved after

powering the device ON.

4. Connect up to eight fiber optic sources to the IN connectors (for example, 3G

HD-SDI video players connected to a Kramer 690T transmitter).
