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).

dual fiber 7707CVDR-F2 versions transmit on the wavelength marked on the rear panel
and are designed to work with either single-mode fiber optic cable. The dual fiber
7707CVDR-F2 versions are compatible with multi-mode fiber when connected directly to
a companion 7707CVDT-F2 module.
2.2. VIDEO CONNECTIONS
VIDEO OUT: On the 7707CVDR there are two composite analog video outputs for single fiber versions
and one for dual fiber (-F2) version. The outputs can have cable pre-emphasis applied
independently. (See section 5.3.3 for information on setting the desired pre-emphasis).
2.3. SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
A sixteen pin removable terminal block has the connections for bi-directional serial data. The –A4
versions also have four balanced analog audio outputs. The cables can be secured into the removable
portion of the terminal strips using a small screwdriver. The removable part of the terminal strip is then
inserted into the rear panel and secured using the hold down screws.

2.4.4. Handling and Connecting Fibers
"
Never touch the end face of an optical fiber. Always keep dust caps on optical fiber
connectors when not connected and always remember to properly clean the optical
end face of a connector before making a connection.
The transmission characteristics of the fiber are dependent on the shape of the optical core and
therefore care must be taken to prevent fiber damage due to heavy objects or abrupt fiber bending.
Evertz recommends that the user maintain a minimum bending radius of 5 cm to avoid fiber-bending
loss that will decrease the maximum attainable distance of the fiber cable. The Evertz fiber optic
modules come with cable lockout devices, to prevent the user from damaging the fiber by installing a
module into a slot in the frame that does not have a suitable I/O module. For further information about
care and handling of fiber optic cable see section 3 of the Fiber Optics System Design section of this
manual binder.

4. STATUS INDICATORS AND DISPLAYS
The 7707CVDR has 6 LED Status indicators and a 4 digit alphanumeric display on the front card edge
to show operational status of the card at a glance. The card edge pushbutton and toggle switch are
used to select various displays on the alphanumeric display. Figure 7-1 shows the location of the LEDs
and card edge controls.
4.1. STATUS INDICATOR LEDS
Two large LEDs on the front of the board indicate the general health of the module
LOCAL FAULT: This Red LED indicates poor module health and will be On during the absence of
a valid optical link to a 7707CVDT module, or if a local input power fault exists (i.e.
a blown fuse). The LOCAL FAULT indication can also be reported to the frame
