Installation & Setup

LINK Connector LEDs

The LINK (RJ-45) connectors are 10Base-T and have two LEDs that indicate communication status when the enclosure is linked and active.

Amber LED “on” – link status is active

Green LED “blinks” – activity between enclosures

FIG. 12 LINK (RJ-45) connector LEDs

Note: The Status LED indicator directly above the DB-9 port on the enclosure’s rear indicates system status.

Attaching Inputs & Outputs

Input and output connectors are the attachment points for source and destination devices that connect to the system. Viewed from the rear of an Octaire enclosure, the input connectors are in the center on the top with the output connectors directly below them. Input and output connectors are numbered separately. The numbers are above each connector and read left to right, continuing on the next row of connectors. The configuration of the system determines the number of connectors.

An “Octaire AutoPatch Connector Guide” (see page 96) is included with the primary enclosure to ensure correct routing. The system is programmed to operate based on the guide.

Cabling Video Connectors

All video connectors are BNC. For the BNC connectors on Octaire enclosures, the upper set (inputs) is white and the lower set (outputs) is black. For signal specifications for standard video, ultra-wideband video, and sync video, see the “Signal Types & Specifications” chapter (page 39).

Video Types

The available video types for the Octaire are

Composite

Y/c

Three-component/HDTV

RGBHV

Signal Type Labels on Enclosures

Important: Be sure to attach the video cables to the correct enclosure. Octaire enclosures are built and programmed at the factory to handle specific signal types. This is especially important for enclosure systems that contain both ultra-wideband and digital sync enclosures because the enclosures look the same, but they do not support the same signal type.

The enclosures have labels designating the signal type on the rear of each enclosure:

STD (standard video) – supports composite signals or the Y or c components of Y/c signals

UWB (ultra-wideband) – supports three-component signals or the R, G, or B components of RGBHV signals

SYNC (digital sync) – supports the H and V components of RGBHV signals
