Usage
WARNING
!The BLK-HDEXT is Class 1 laser product. Do not view laser light directly with optical instruments.
1. Route a ber optic cable (single- or multi-mode cable, not provided) with ST terminations between
the HD-SDI source equipment (camera, etc.) and the HD-SDI receiver equipment (HDcctv DVR, etc.).
CAUTION
Always handle and install ber optic cable in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Observe all connector cleaning procedures, and cable bend radius requirements.
2. Connect the sender module directly to the HD-SDI video source. For best performance, do not use an
extender cable or adapter between them.
3. Connect the receiver module directly to your HD-SDI receiver equipment, such as a DVR.
