Revision 1.4
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 7707CVDR DWDM cards directly with a short fiber optic
cable. The 7707CVDR DWDM cards produce +7dBm of power which will
damage the receiver if connected directly.

7707CVDR Composite Video, Analog Audio and RS232/422 Fiber Receiver
Revision 1.4 7707CVDR-1
1. OVERVIEW
The 7707CVDR series modules are VistaLINK
®
enabled, Composite Analog Video fiber receivers for
broadcast quality video and serial data signals. The -A4 versions are also Analog Audio receivers.
These modules accept one fiber optic input, demultiplex the signals, perform D to A conversion and
output NTSC or PAL analog video. The -A4 versions also output up to four balanced analog audio
signals. All 7707CVDR series modules provide bi-directional transport of RS232/RS422 data on the
fiber when connected to a companion 7707CVDT module. The companion 7707CVDT series
Composite Video fiber transmitters also digitize and multiplex the NTSC or PAL analog video, serial data
and up to four analog audio signals (on the –A4 versions) and convert them to an optical signal for
transmission.
The 7707CVDR and 7707CVDR-A4 occupy one card slot and can be housed in either a 1RU frame,
which will hold up to three modules, or a 3 RU frame, which will hold up to 15 modules.
Two optical interface configurations allow the user to choose the optimal function / price / performance
ratio to suit a particular application. The standard configuration transmits and receives over a single
fiber. The dual fiber (-F2) configuration is compatible with CWDM and DWDM systems and is designed
to transmit and receive over separate fibers. The optical output of the 7707CVDR is available in
1310nm, 1550nm, or any one of up to sixteen CWDM wavelengths or a multitude of DWDM
wavelengths. All versions accept 1270 nm to 1610 nm optical input signals on multi-mode or single-
mode fiber. (Please see specifications, section 3 for complete information).
