1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TheLBO-SV-AD-Tisahighperformance,lowcost,miniature,LinkBridgeTM
FiberOpticVideoScalingTransmitterSystem(withAudio/Data). Itcarries
one (1) unidirectional S-video (SV) or one (1) unidirectional composite
video (CV) through one multimode fiber for being displayed with
DVI/HDMI/VGAvideopanel. This uniquefiberoptic transmissionsystem
lets your SV/CV video source displayed in DVI/HDMI/VGA digital flat
panel display extending up to 400m. In addition to unidirectional video
transmission, the LBO-SV-AD-T also carries one bi-directional stereo
audio and two (2) RS-232 data over the same fiber cable, as well as
featuresauto SV/CV inputvideo detection.The LBO-SV-AD-Tsupports
videoresolutionuptoWUXGA(1920x1200@60Hz)or720p/1080i/1080p
HDTVvideo resolution. Inaddition, this productmodel has anoption for
videoonlyconfigurationwhichallowseitherfiberorelectricaltransmission.
No user adjustment is required for the LBO-SV-AD-T due to the use of
advanceddigitalfiber optictransmission systemtechnology. This allows
foraquick andeasy setup,offeringtrouble-freeoperationfor manyyears
to come. In addition, the LBO-SV-AD-T transmitter is compatible with
our LBO Series receiver. This makes both fiber transmission and
HDMI/DVI/VGA/YPbPr/SV/CV/SDIconversioninonesinglesystemsetup.
TheLBO-SV-AD-Tcomes with either a standaloneminiature enclosure
or a Decora wall-plate packaging. The units are easily monitored by
powerand link LED indicators.
Option(LBO-SV/DH) isalso availablefor convertingSV/CV videoto DVI
video, without fiber optical transmission. This option is perfect for short
distancecopper transmission applications.
Figures 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 and 1-4 illustrate the front and rear panels of the
LBO-SV-AD-T model.

2.0 SETUP
LBO-SV-AD-T is a transmitter and it can be paired with any DVI/HDMI
centric LBO receiver (such as LBO-DVI-R). One LBO-SV-AD-T
transmitter unit is located at the near-end and connected through one
optical fiber, to the LBO-DVI-R receiver located at the far-end of the
link. Figure 2-1 depicts a typical installation for the LBO-SV-AD-T.
Figure 2-1
Mini-SV-AD-T Setup
2.1 Mounting
Beforeinstalling the units into your housing, make sure there is
enoughspace to pullandconnect both theelectricaland optical
cables without stressing them beyond the manufacturer’s
limitations (also known as the minimum bend radius).
2.2 Cabling and Connectors

2.2.1.2 Audio Interface
The audio interface supports two channel high fidelity
transmissions. Two separate mono channels or one stereo
channelistransmitted ineachdirection. Line-level audiosignals
areconnectedto the LBO-SV-AD-Tunits. Thefollowing steps
illustratethe installation procedures for audio devices.
To send audio signals, labeland connect one stereoaudio-jack
cableto the “AUDIOOUTPUT” connector oftheline level audio
source. On the LBO-SV-AD-T unit, connect the other end of
the cables to the front panel stereo jack connector labeled
“AUDIOIN” (see Figure2-3a).
To receive audio signals, at the far-end location, label and
connect one stereo audio-jack cable to the “AUDIO INPUT”
connector of the line level audio receiver. On the
LBO-SV-AD-T unit, connect the other end of the cables to the
front panel stereo jack connector labeled “AUDIO OUT” (see
Figure2-3b).

2.2.2 Optical Fiber Connection
Most cable manufacturers identify individual fibers in the fiber
cable. Selectanappropriateterminated fiber. Each unit’soptical
ports in the system are specified for use with Multimode
(62.5/125 or 50/125 micron) fiber. Follow the ensuing
instructions on installing and connecting the fiber optic links:
1. Ensure the power is off before proceeding with the fiber
optic cable installation.
2. Priorto connecting thefiber optic cables, removeand save
the dust caps from the optical port of the LBO-SV-AD-T
units. Clean the fiber optic connector and use a lint-free
cloth dampened with alcohol to thoroughly wipe the side
andend of the ferrule.
3. Connectthe fiber from one unit totheother connecting the
near end LBO-SV/DH-T unit’s optical portto the far endof
the LBO-DVI-R unit’s optical RX port as illustrated in
Figure 2-5. LBO-SV/DH-T is compatible with any LBO
receivers.

2.3 DC Power Connection
Congratulations! Youare nowready to powerup the LBO-SV-AD-Tand
set up your network connection. In order to make sure that you have a
properinstallation, please observe thefollowing:
1. YourAC jack has power.
2. The12VDC power supply is working.
3. Your electrical system has proper grounding (this ensures
that your power supply does not suffer from voltage
variations).
4. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly
recommended. AUPS system provides voltage regularity
as well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus protecting
yourLBO-SV-AD-Tfrom sensitive voltage conditions.
TheLBO-SV-AD-Tderives powerfrom anexternal12VDC powersupply.
This power supply is a wall mounted AC/DC adapter, 100-240 VAC,
50-60 Hz, at 1.5A. This power supply comes standard for the
LBO-SV-AD-Tunless otherwise specified.
Ifyouhaveanyproblemsorconcerns,regardingtheinstallation,make
sure that you have taken the proper steps to ensure a proper power
connection. Otherwise, feel free to contact us for any questions you
mayhave.

version)mustconfirmnational andlocalelectricalcodes, e.g.,ULjunction
boxes shall be used and DC power source shall not exceed product
rated range (+12VDC @ 1.5A). Follow the following steps for power/
fiberinstallation:
1. AsshowninFigure 2-6,feedbothfiberandpower cablesthrough
the opening of the wall box, and secure the cables with cable
clampsto provide strain relief.
2. Terminatedfiberwith SCopticalconnector tobedirectly plugged
into the SC connector port of the LBO-SV-AD-T-WP units
(seeFigure 2-5).
3. Before connecting power wire to the LBO-SV-AD-T-WP unit,
make sure power supply is off. Prepare the Positive (+12V)
and Negative (GND or +12V return), and chassis ground
(CHASSIS to earth ground) tip of the power wire as shown in
Figure2-7to bedirectly pluggedinto thecaptive screw+12VDC
connectorofthe LBO-SV-AD-T-WPunits(see Figure2-6).Make
sure the polarity of the connection is correct. Insulate any
exposed wire shields to prevent short circuits.

Note1: During installation, the installermay need to connect thepower
supplyoutput to an appropriate ListedNEC type cable before it
isrouted behind a wall. Simply routing the powersupply output
cable behind a wall will most likely not comply with applicable
installation requirements. Unit should only be powered by a
powersource thatis Listed(NEC) Class2 ora ListedITE Power
Supply marked/rated as LPS or Limited Power Source.
Note2: The installation shall be in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70,
Article 725 and the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1,
Section 16.
Note3: The power supplyshallnot be permanently fixedto the building
structure or similar structures.
Note4: The power supply shall not be located within environmental air
handling spaces or within the wall cavity.
Note5: The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as
theA/V processing equipment in anordinary location, Pollution
Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated
closet, podium or desk.

Thereis no operator maintenance other thenkeepingthe units
clean. However,observe the following light indicators to make
sure that the unit is working properly:
4.2 Troubleshooting
If the LBO-SV-AD-T units do not operate properly after
installation,checkfor: possiblecablebreaks,looseconnections,
and incorrect cable connections. If a problem exists on the
fiber link, please check your fiber connectors for improperly
cleaned fiber cables and connectors. If problems persist that
maybe fiber related, contact BCI at1-800-214-0222for further
assistance.
For electrical problems, perform the following troubleshooting
procedures:
1. If the POWER indicator is OFF, check for the following:
a. The line cord is plugged into the unit and your outlet
haspower.
2. If the POWER indicator is ON, but the Optical Link
indicator is OFF, check for the following:
a. Makesure theappropriate (Multimode)fibers arebeing
used.
b. Fiberand fiber connectors are not broken.
c. For each unit, the transmit (TX) fiber is connected to
theother unit’s receiver(RX).
3. If the POWER indicator and Optical Link indicator are
ON, but the audio/video channels are not operating,
then:
