Operating Loss Budget | Maximum Useable Distance
The FiberLink 3390 Series of ber optic transmission systems are ready for
immediate use and do not require any special tools or equipment.
The following instructions describe the typical installation procedure:
1) Connect the video source to the video input BNC connector on the transmitter unit.
2) Connect the video output cable to the video output BNC connector on the
receiver unit.
3) Congure the audio and data preferences as described in the appropriate sections
of this manual.
4) Connect the data connections as described in the Data Wiring section of this manual.
5) The Ethernet port is congured as an MDI port. If you are not connecting
the 3390 Series to an auto-crossover Ethernet port, you may need to use the Ethernet
crossover cable supplied with the unit to connect to another MDI port.
6) Connect the audio wiring as described in the Audio Wiring section of this manual.
Installation Instructions

Page 9FiberLink 3390 Series User’s Manual
FiberLink 3390 Series
7) Connect the contact closure wiring as described in the Contact Closure Wiring section
of this manual.
8) Connect the ber optic cable(s) to the transmitter and receiver units.
Note: when using the two-ber version, you must connect transmitter “A” Optical
1 to receiver “B” Optical 1 and transmitter “A” Optical 2 to receiver “B” Optical 2.
9) Connect the Universal Power Supply to the transmitter and receiver units.
For box versions using DC power, please refer to gure 1.
10) When power is applied, the green POWER LED should illuminate, indicating the
presence of operating power. The 3G/HD/SD RATE, audio, and data LEDs will
give an indication as described in the Indicator LED’s and Alarm Circuitry section
of this manual.
11) The system should now be operational.
Note: The Rack Card version has an additional red LED for indicating the presence of an alarm
condition (loss of signal). Refer to Indicator LED’s and Alarm Circuitry sections of this manual.

Installation Instructions (cont.)
The transmitting element in the FiberLink 3390 transmitter
unit contains a solid state Laser Diode located in the optical
connector. This device emits invisible infrared electromag-
netic radiation which can be harmful to human eyes. The
radiation from this optical connector, if viewed at close
range with no ber optic cable connected to the optical
connector, may be sucient intensity to cause
instantaneous damage to the retina of the eye. Direct
viewing of this radiation should be avoided at all times!

Operating Pointers
Remember to check attenuation of the ber optic cable. The system will only operate
properly if these specications fall within the range of the system’s loss budget.
Note: If no electrical signals are applied to the Transceiver inputs, no optical power will be
present on the Transceiver’s optical output.
Troubleshooting
Multimode ber optic cable contains an optical ber with a light carrying “core” that is
only .0025 inches (62.5 microns) in diameter. Single mode ber optic cable has an even
smaller “core,”only .00032 to .0004 inches (8-10 microns). This is smaller than a human hair!
Therefore, any minute particles of dirt or dust can easily block the ber from accepting or
radiating light. To prevent this from happening, always use the provided dust caps when
ever optical connectors are exposed to air. It is also a good idea to gently clean the tip of an
optical connector with a lint-free cloth moistened with alcohol whenever dust is suspected.
The status of the LEDs should provide the rst clue as to the origin of any operational
failure. If these are o, it usually means that the ber is broken or has too much attenuation.
Next, be certain that the input and output signal connections are correct.
An optical power meter, such as the FiberLink 6650, a visible light source, such as the
FiberLink 6656, and a Two Wavelength Light Source, such as the FiberLink 6652/6654, can
greatly assist and expedite troubleshooting of ber optic transmission systems and are
recommended tools all installers should have available.
Finally, although multimode and single mode devices may look the same, they will not
operate properly together. Using the wrong device or ber can easily add more attenuation
than specied, resulting in poor overall performance. It should be noted that some of our
ber optic products support both single mode and multimode ber in the same unit.
If, after reviewing the above possibilities, the system is still not operating, please contact
the Customer Service Department for further assistance. If you suspect your problem is
caused by the optics or the ber optic cable, and you have an optical power meter, please
take the appropriate measurements prior to contacting support.
