WARNING
Never look directly into an optical fiber. Non-reversible damage to the eye can
occur in a matter of milliseconds.
"
Do not hook up the 7707RGBR/DVIR DWDM cards directly with a short fiber
optic cable. The 7707RGBR/DVIR DWDM cards produce +7dBm of power
which will damage the receiver if connected directly.

7707RGBR/DVIR DVI and RGB Video/Audio Fiber Receiver
Revision 1.4 7707RGBR/DVIR-1
1. OVERVIEW
The 7707RGBR RGB Fiber Receiver extends one digital (DVI) or analog (RGB) video display connection
over a single fiber optic link with display resolutions up to WUXGA (1920 x 1200). The DVI-I connector
combines analog and digital display technologies, promoting optimal compatibility with different display
types. Two optional analog audio outputs are also available, as well as optional serial data, USB,
keyboard, and mouse. These options facilitate complete remote computer control and display, including
the ability to connect USB peripherals. The 7707RGBR is designed to operate with a companion
7707RGBT transmitter.
The 7707DVIR provides the same features listed above, but only accepts a digital (DVI) input.
Instead of fiber optic cable connections, the -C and –C2 versions of the card provide an economical 3.125
Gb/s electrical coaxial link.
The –GF version provides a fiber optic link and the –GC version provides a coaxial link to receive an RGB
or DVI signal from Evertz MVP
TM
or VIP
TM
multi-display products using the G-Link protocol.
Monitoring and control of card status and card parameters are provided locally, at the card-edge, or
remotely via VistaLINK
®

2. INSTALLATION
Each 7707RGBR/DVIR module comes with a companion rear plate that has one DVI-I video connector
and (depending on the options ordered) may also have analog audio terminals, PS2 keyboard and mouse
connectors, a DB9 serial connector, and three type-A USB connectors. In addition, there will be SC/PC
(shown), ST/PC, or FC/PC optical connector(s) and/or a BNC connector for link connections. On
7707RGBR models only, the DVI-I connector supports combined analog and digital video through a single
interface. An industry-standard DB-15 connector adapter may be used for RGB. For information on
mounting the rear plate and inserting the module into the frame, see section 3 of the 7700FR chapter. The
following diagrams show some sample rear plate options for the 7707RGBR and 7707DVIR.

2.1. OPTICAL CONNECTIONS
FIBER INPUT: There is one SC/PC (shown), ST/PC or FC/PC female connector for the optical input to
the 7707RGBR/DVIR. This wide band optical input accepts optical wavelengths of
1270nm to 1610nm, accommodating standard or CWDM transmission schemes. This
input is compatible with multimode fiber when connected directly to a companion
7707RGBT/DVIT transmitter. On the 7707RGBR/DVIR-GF versions, this connector will
accept an input signal in the G-Link format for connection to Evertz MVP
TM
multi-display
products.

7700 Multi-Frame Manual
7707RGBR/DVIR DVI and RGB Video/Audio Fiber Receiver
Revision 1.4 7707RGBR/DVIR-5
FIBER OUTPUT (F2 Versions): There is one SC/PC (shown), ST/PC, or FC/PC female connector
when the 7707RGBT/DVIT is equipped with an optical output. The optical output is
available in 1310nm, 1550nm, CWDM (ITU-T G.694.2 compliant) and DWDM (ITU G.694.1
compliant) wavelengths. This connector is compatible with multimode fiber when connected
directly to a companion 7707RGBT/DVIT transmitter.
FIBER I/O (A2KM-W Version Only): There is one SC/PC (shown), ST/PC or FC/PC female
connector with the optical input/output for the 7707RGBT/DVIT15-W version. This
connector should be mated to a companion 7707RGBR13L-W version card using single-
mode fiber optic cable.
All single fiber versions of the 7707RGBR13L-W are designed to work only with single-
mode fiber optic cable.
2.2. SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
VIDEO OUTPUT: The 7707DVIR accommodates display devices with digital DVI connections only.
The 7707RGBR DVI-I connector accommodates analog and digital display technologies,
promoting optimal compatibility with different display types. Display devices with DVI
connectors may be connected directly to this port. A DB-15 RGB connection may also be
accommodated using an industry standard DB-15 to DVI-I adapter such as the Belkin
F2E4162, or appropriately terminated cable assembly such as the Amp 16539332-1.
Note: When making digital DVI connections, Evertz recommends using only high quality
DVI cables, no longer than 6 feet (1.8m).
AUDIO OUTPUTS (A2 & A2KM Versions): The 7707RGBR/DVIR-A2 and 7707RGBR/DVIR-
A2KM modules provide a terminal block for output connections compatible with either
balanced or unbalanced analog audio. Balanced audio signals should be connected to the
positive (+) and negative (-) output terminals. Unbalanced audio signals should be
connected to the positive (+) input terminal, and a jumper connection should be installed
between the negative (-) input terminal and the ground terminal ( ).
KEYBOARD (A2KM Versions): The 7707RGBR/DVIR-A2KM provides a PS2 port for a keyboard
connection. Connect this port to a standard PS2 keyboard.
MOUSE (A2KM Versions): The 7707RGBR/DVIR-A2KM provides a PS2 port for a mouse connection.
Connect this port to a standard PS2 mouse.
SERIAL (A2KM Versions): Female DB9 RS232 serial port with standard PC style layout. This port may
be connected to serial peripherals. This port may also operate in RS422 mode by changing
a user-selectable menu item (see section 4.2.7).
USB PORTS (USB Versions): When equipped with the USB option, the 7707RGBR/DVIR provides
three type-A USB ports. These ports may be used to connect USB peripherals.

2.3. BNC CONNECTIONS
INPUT (-C, -C2, -GC versions): BNC connector for the electrical link input of the 7707RGBR/DVIR.
This signal should be connected to the Tx port of a companion 7707RGBT/DVIT. –GC
versions will accept a G-Link formatted signal for connection to Evertz MVP
TM
multi-display
products.
OUTPUT (-A2KM-C2 versions): BNC connector for the electrical link output of the 7707RGBR/DVIR.
This signal should be connected to the Rx port of a companion 7707RGBT/DVIT. This
connection may be extended using Belden 1694 or equivalent cable.
