Cabling
Cabling
Cabling to the 8949MDA-CXF or 8949MDA-SXF module is done on the
8900WFR-XFR rear module BNCs and the fiber connector when an
optional fiber optic submodule is installed.
Cabling of the rear module depends on presence and type of fiber optic
submodule option listed in
Table 2 on page 16 summarized as follows:
• 8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with no fiber optic submodule option (electrical
only),
• 8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with the Dual Receiver fiber optic submodule,
• 8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with any Dual Transmitter fiber optic sub-
module, and
• 8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with the Transceiver fiber optic submodule
option.
Note Fiber input and output connections must be cleaned and the protective covers
removed from the cable ends before cabling as described in
Fiber Optic
Cleaning Requirement on page 17 .
Video Input
The 8949MDA-CXF or 8949MDA-SXF will accept any of the video stan-
dards listed in the input specifications in
Table 5 on page 50 .
For both module types, the SD or HD video input to the module can be
selected from one of the following three sources, depending on the pres-
ence and type of fiber optic submodule option:
• Electrical BNC, J9 (always available)
• Fiber Input RX 1 or RX 2 (requires Dual Receiver submodule), or
• Fiber Input RX 1 (requires Transceiver submodule).
All three sources can be connected but only be one input can be active at
any time. The active input is configured with local onboard controls (
Con-
figuration Switches S1 and S2 on page 12 ) or using the Settings web page
( page 37 ) or the Newton Control Panel ().
