Device Details
BNC Ports
Each pair of the twenty-four I/O ports can be equipped with a high quality BNC connectors, providing 3G/HD/SD-
SDI or AES10/MADI connectivity.
Each 3G/HD/SD-SDI video port can be configured by the manufacturer as:
• Input with equalizer and an optional reclocker
• Output with an optional reclocker
Three types of Dual 3G/HD/SD-SDI modules are available for the Repeat48/Repeat48WDM:
• Input / Input
• Input / Output
• Output / Output
One type of AES10/MADI modules are available for the Repeat48/Repeat48WDM:
• Input / Output
Fibre Ports
Data from/to 3G/HD/SD-SDI or MADI coaxial interfaces are repeated to/from the SFP fibre ports.
The Repeat48WDM features internal SFP fibre ports that can be connected to internal WDM, CWDM or DWDM
passive multiplexing module(s) as required for the application.External auxiliary connections to the multiplexer
module(s) can be specified for connection to an external device such as an Ethernet switch or an Optocore
network populated with single mode fibre transceivers.
Video Fibre Ports are configurable by manufacturer as:
• Input / Input
• Input / Output
• Output / Output
Multiplexers
Repeat48WDM can optionally be populated with passive WDM, CWDM or DWDM multiplexing module(s) as
required by the application.
Power Supply
The device is optionally equipped with two power supplies and inputs. If the primary power supply were to fail,
due to disruption of the power source or in the case of a power supply malfunction, the device will automatically
switch over to the redundant power supply. In order to make the power supply to the device redundant, both
power inputs must be connected to the mains supply, if possible to different phases, circuits, or by having one of
the power supplies connected to an uninterrupted power supply (UPS).
The power supplies operate with mains voltage of 100 ... 240 V and frequency of 50 …60 Hz. The device can be
used throughout the world without any modifications or transformers.
One or both of the AC power supplies can optionally be substituted with a DC-DC module allowing the device to
be operated by 8-18V DC source, such as a battery or remotely over a hybrid cable.
Control
The Repeat48/Repeat48WDM is a plug-and-play device that does not any user control or configuration.
Please note:
The switched-mode power supplies operate at very high voltages.
Coming into contact with the power supplies can lead to considerable electric
shock, which may result in death.
To prevent electric shock, do not remove any covers of the device.

Repeat48/Repeat48WDM 14 / 21 rev. 2.1
Connectors and Cables
3G/HD/SD-SDI and MADI Ports
Use 75 Ωcoaxial cable with BNC connectors. Cables and connectors used should comply with SD/HD/3G-SDI
and/or AES10/MADI interconnection standards. The maximum cable length is dependent on the bandwidth of the
signal (AES10/MADI, SD, HD or 3G), the specification of the cable and connectors.
Please consult the device’s configuration sheet for configuration of inputs and outputs.
Optical Connections
Each Repeat48 and Repeat48WDM two channel Electrical-Optical-Electrical module is populated with a SFP fibre
transceiver with duplex LC connectors.
The Repeat48 features hot-pluggable SFP fibre transceivers that can be changed in the field.
The Repeat48WDM features internal SFP fibre transceivers populated at the time of manufacturing.
Please consult the device’s configuration sheet for configuration of inputs and outputs.
3G/HD/SD-SDI - Video:
Standard single mode transceivers connected using a 9 µm fibre cable can be used for applications requiring
cable lengths of up to 10 km (dependent on bandwith and the quality of the optical cables).
Extended single mode transceivers connected using a 9 µm fibre cable can be used for applications requiring
cable lengths of up to 80 km (dependent on bandwith and the quality of the optical cables).
AES10/MADI - Multichannel Audio:
Multi mode AES10/MADI transceivers connected using a 62.5 µm OM1 fibre cable (or better) can be used for
applications requiring cable lengths of up to 2000 m (worst case).
Single mode AES10/MADI transceivers connected using a 9 µm fibre cable can be used for applications requiring
cable lengths of up to 70 km (worst case).
For portable applications, such as touring and other temporary installations, ruggedized HMA Expanded Beam
Connectors, mounted on 1 RU panels and portable cables on cable drums are available.
Please refer to the Product Brochure available at www.BroaMan.com.
Power Connection
For AC connection use power cords with IEC C13 connectors.
For DC connection use power cords with 4 pin XLR-Female connectors and maintain polarity.
Please note:
SFP fibre transceivers are application specific and must match the coaxial interface
Internal SFP transceivers must not be changed by the user.
Please contact the BroaMan technical support team for further information.
Please note:
The BroaMan multi mode AES10/MADI transceiver is capable of receiving
AES10/MADI from a Single Mode transceiver. Use a multimode fibre cable to
connect between the single mode and multi mode AES10/MADI fibre transceivers.
