monitoring or further signal distribution. The 7707CATVR accepts a fiber optic input from the
7707CATVT and provides two output signals via F-Type (BNC optional) connectors. Monitoring and
control of card status and parameters is provided locally via card edge and remotely via VistaLINK
®
capability.
The 7707CATVT and 7707CATVR modules each occupy one card slot and can be housed in either a
1RU frame, which will hold up to three modules, or a 3RU frame which will hold up to 15 modules.

2. INSTALLATION
Each of the modules in the 7707CATV series comes standard with a companion +3RU rear plate. The
rear plate must be specified during the time of order. SC/APC or FC/APC optical connectors are
available for these modules and must be specified during the time of order. For information on mounting
the rear plate and inserting the module into the frame, see the 7700FR manual for detailed instructions.

2.1. 7707CATVT CONNECTIONS
CATV IN: Input F-Type (BNC optional) connector for CATV signals.
CATV OUT: Output F-Type (BNC optional) is a CATV wide band RF output for monitoring or
further signal distribution of your CATV signals.
FIBER OUTPUT: There is one SC/APC (shown) or FC/APC female connector that is the optical
output from the 7707CATVT. This connector should be coupled to the FIBER IN
connector of a 7707CATVR module at the destination end with a suitable fiber
optic cable. The 7707CATVT transmits at 1310nm wavelength.
2.2. 7707CATVR CONNECTIONS
FIBER INPUT: There is one SC/APC (shown) or FC/APC female connector that is the optical
input to the 7707CATVR as shown in section. This connector should be coupled
to the FIBER OUT connector of a 7707CATVT module at the destination end with
a suitable fiber optic cable. The 7707CATVT transmits at 1310nm wavelength.

2.4. CARE AND HANDLING OF OPTICAL FIBER
2.4.1. Safety
!
DANGER:
Never look directly into an optical fiber. Non-reversible damage to the eye can
occur in a matter of milliseconds.
Invisible radiation is emitted from the end of the fiber or connector. Avoid direct
exposure to the beam. Do not view with optical instruments.
Use of controls, adjustments and procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.
The laser modules used in the Evertz 7707CATVT fiber optic modules are Class I (7707CATVT-110-6)
and Class IIIB (7707CATVT-110-11).
2.4.2. 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 facet of a connector before making a connection.

7700 MultiFrame Manual
7707CATV Cable TV Fiber Transmitter / Receiver
7707CATV -6 Revision 2.1
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 maintains 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.
"
Never connect a PC optical connector to an APC optical connector. APC stands for
Angle Polish Contact and means the end face has been angled to reduce optical
back reflection. A PC connector has a flat end face. APC connectors have GREEN
plastic connector housings whereas the PC type has BLUE housings. Never mate
a GREEN connector to a BLUE connector. Due to the angle polish, both
connectors can be physically damaged and will need to be replaced.

5. STATUS INDICATORS AND DISPLAYS
5.1.1. 7707CATVT (rev. 1) STATUS INDICATORS
The 7707CATVT module has 6 LED Status indicators on the front card edge to show operational status
of the card at a glance.
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 illuminated if a board
power fault exists (i.e. a blown fuse) or if the laser is nearing the end of the life
cycle. The LOCAL FAULT indication can also be reported to the frame through
the FRAME STATUS jumper.
MODULE OK: This Green LED indicates good module health. It will be On when the board
power is good and has a valid CATV RF input signal.
There are 4 small LEDs that indicate the status of the incoming RF signal, laser status.
LASER OK: This green LED (LED D24) will be On when the output laser is operating at the
maximum output power, +8dBm (Selectable in CTRL/OPWR).
RF LOW: This green LED (LED D13) will be On when the input RF signal is below the lower
RF threshold range.
RF HIGH: This red LED (LED10) will be On when the input RF signal is higher than the
upper threshold RF signal range.
RF OK: This green LED (LED D1) will be On when the RF signal is above the lower RF
threshold and below the upper RF threshold.
5.1.2. 7707CATVR (rev. 1) STATUS INDICATORS
The 7707CATVR module has 4 LED Status indicators on the front card edge to show operational status
of the card at a glance.
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 input signal, or if a local power fault exists (i.e. a blown fuse). The
LOCAL FAULT indication can also be reported to the frame through the FRAME
STATUS jumper.
MODULE OK: This Green LED indicates good module health. It will be On when a valid optical
input signal is present, and the board power is good.
There are 2 small LEDs that indicate the status of the incoming optical signal.
RF HIGH: This red LED (D14) will be On when the input RF signal is above the upper
threshold level.

7707CATV Cable TV Fiber Transmitter / Receiver
Revision 2.1 7707CATV -11
RF OK: This green LED (D16) will be On when the RF input signal is within the lower and
upper threshold level.
5.1.3. 7707CATVT (rev. A) STATUS INDICATORS
The 7707CATVT module has 6 LED Status indicators on the front card edge to show operational status
of the card at a glance.
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 illuminated if a board
power fault exists (i.e. a blown fuse) or if the laser is nearing the end of the life
cycle or if the RF input level is outside the threshold levels. The LOCAL FAULT
indication can also be reported to the frame through the FRAME STATUS jumper.
MODULE OK: This Green LED indicates good module health. It will be On when the board
power is good and has a valid CATV RF input signal.
There are 4 small LEDs that indicate the status of the incoming RF signal, laser status.
LASER OUTPUT POWER: This green LED (D24) will be On when the output laser is set to the
highest output level, +11dBm for –11 version and +8dBm for –8 version.
RF HIGH: This red LED (D13) will be On when the input RF signal is above the upper
threshold level.
RF LOW: This yellow LED (D10) will be On when the input RF signal is below the lower
threshold level.
RF OK: This green LED (D1) will be On when the RF input signal is within the lower and
upper threshold level.
5.1.4. 7707CATVR (rev. A) STATUS INDICATORS
The 7707CATVR module has 6 LED Status indicators on the front card edge to show operational status
of the card at a glance.
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 input signal, or if a local power fault exists (i.e.: a blown fuse) or the
optical level is outside the threshold levels. The LOCAL FAULT indication can
also be reported to the frame through the FRAME STATUS jumper.
MODULE OK: This Green LED indicates good module health. It will be On when a valid optical
input signal is present, and the board power is good.

There are 4 small LEDs that indicate the status of the incoming optical signal.
OPTICAL INPUT OK: This green LED (D25) will be On when the input optical power is within the
lower and upper threshold levels.
RF HIGH: This red LED (D14) will be On when the output RF power is above upper
threshold level.
RF LOW: This yellow LED (D15) will be On when the output RF power is below the
lower threshold level.
RF OK: This green LED (D16) will be On when the output RF power is within the
lower and upper threshold levels.
