Reclocking DA Modules
Introduction
This manual covers installation, configuration, and operation of the
8947RDA-D Dual HD/SD Reclocking DA and the 8947RDA-FR HD/SD
Reclocking Fiber Ready DA, both of which must be installed in a GeckoFlex
frame.
The 8947RDA-D is a dual HD/SD re-clocking distribution amplifier with
automatic format detection. It provides four (in dual mode) to eight (in
single mode) reclocked outputs and can equalize up 125 meters of Belden
1694A cable for HD-SDI. It can be used to distribute either HD-SDI or
SD-SDI making it ideal for mixed format applications or installations
where an upgrade is planned. It requires the 8900WE-R rear module.
The 8947RDA-FR is a fiber-ready reclocking distribution amplifier with
automatic format detection. It provides eight reclocked electrical pouts and
can equalize up to 125 meters of Belden 1694A cable for HD-SDI. In addi-
tion, the module supports fiber optic inputs and outputs when one of six
different optional fiber optic submodules is installed. It requires the
8900WFR-FR rear module.
It can also distribute eight non-inverted DVB-ASI outputs making it ideal
for receiving signals from distant downlinks or transmitting to remote
uplinks.
Features
The features of the 8947RDA modules include:
• Multi-format HD-SDI or SD-SDI on electrical or optical inputs,
• Up to eight reclocked HD or SD on electrical and/or optical outputs (on
the 8947RDA-FR) which reduce jitter on the incoming signal,
• Auto cable equalization for up to 330m of cable in the case of SD and
ASI and for up to 125m of cable in the case of HD signals,

10 8947RDA-D/-FR — Instruction Manual

8947RDA-D/-FR — Instruction Manual 11
Installation
Installation
The front and the rear modules are delivered together as a set: 8947RDA-D
front module with the 8900WE-R rear module or the 8947RDA-FR front
fiber ready module with 8900WFR-FR rear module. The optional fiber optic
submodule ships separately.
The front modules can be plugged in and removed from a GeckoFlex frame
with power on, without disrupting operation on adjacent running mod-
ules. When power is applied to the module, LED indicators reflect the ini-
tialization process (see Power Up on page 24).
Installation of the 8947RDA module set is a process of:
1. Placing the 8900WE-R or 8900WFR-FR rear module in a rear frame slot,
2. Configuring the local onboard settings if not using an 8900NET (Net
Card) (see Local Configuration on page 14),
3. Placing the front module in the corresponding front slot, and
4. Installing the optional SFP Fiber Optic submodule in the rear module is
used.
Module Placement in the GeckoFlex Frame
There are ten front and rear cell locations in the 2 RU GeckoFlex frame
(Figure 1) to accommodate either audio, analog and digital video modules.
The 8947RDA module set may be plugged into any one of the available
GeckoFlex frame slots. It requires a single rear slot.

Module Installation Precautions
Please read and follow the precautions listed below before installing the
front and rear modules and any fiber optic option submodule
(8947RDA-FR models only):
• Use standard anti-static procedures during installation. As modules
can be installed or removed when the GeckoFlex frame is powered up,
before removing the cover, please use an anti-static bracelet tied to a
metal part of the frame.
• Install the rear module first, then the front module, then the optical sub-
module option if used on the 8947RDA-FR.
• When installing or removing a rear module, loosen or tighten the
screws holding the retainer clips to the frame manually with the
retainer clip tool provided inside the front cover of the frame or use a
2 mm (5/64”) hex screwdriver. Please do not use an electric screw-
driver.
Note On newer 751- version GeckoFlex frames, a Rear Retainer Clip removal tool
and 2 extra retainer clips and screws for installing them are provided on the
inside of the frame cover.
• Make every effort to leave the screws holding the retainer clips in place
(do not remove them completely). They are very small and can easily
drop into other equipment causing a shorting hazard. (Two turns of the
screw should be enough to loosen the screws, 3 turns or more will
remove it.)
• When installing a rear module, tighten the screws on the retainer clips
just until snug. Do not apply more force than is necessary to seat the
rear module. Refer to the Mechanical specifications given in Table 7 on
page 53.
• If using a fiber optic submodule on the 8947RDA-FR fiber ready
module, handle it carefully, use anti-static precautions, and read the
Fiber Optic Cleaning Requirement on page 18 before cabling.

8947RDA-D/-FR — Instruction Manual 13
Installation
Rear Module Installation
1. To remove a blank rear adapter cover (or a rear module already
present), manually loosen the two screws holding each retainer clip on
the rear adapter cover or rear module to the frame with the retainer clip
tool provided inside the front cover of the frame (751- model frames
only) or a 2 mm (5/64”) hex screwdriver.
Note To remove a rear module already installed, follow the same steps. It is helpful
to first remove the front module so the rear can be pulled out more easily.
1. After loosening the retainer clip screws, pull up on each retainer and
completely remove it, leaving the screws in place.
2. Remove the blank rear adapter cover by inserting the retainer clip tool
or needlenose pliers into the slots in the blank cover and pulling it off
(Figure 2).
3. Insert the rear module into the empty slot, guiding it carefully into
place.
4. Replace each retainer clip over the two screws on both sides of the
module and push down to seat the retainer clip.
5. Tighten the two screws on each retainer clip just until they come into
contract with the retainer clip then tighten about a 1/4 turn more
(maximum torque is 4-5 inch-lb/0.45-0.6Nm). Do not force or torque
the screws too tightly. The clips should not bend or be bowed.
Note All unused rear slots in a GeckoFlex frame should have a blank rear adapter
cover installed.

Optional Fiber Optic Submodule Installation
After the front and rear modules have been installed, install the SFP Fiber
Optic submodule option if being used into the rear module metal cage
labeled FIBER (Figure 5 on page 19). The SFP submodule is hot-pluggable
and may be installed or removed with power applied to the module.
CAUTION Use anti-static precautions and handle the submodule carefully when
installing and the removing it. Before inserting the fiber cable, it is important
to clean all fiber connections as described in Fiber Optic Cleaning Require-
ment below.
Refer to Table 3 for the correct model of submodule to use with different
software versions.
Fiber Optic Cleaning Requirement
Before making any fiber optic cable mating connections, including installa-
tion, and after every de-mating cycle, use an industry standard fiber optic
cleaning kit, including oil-free compressed air, to clean the fiber connectors
and the connectorized fiber end faces. This helps ensure optimum perfor-
mance of the fiber optic interface. Industry standard fiber optic cleaning
kits can be purchased on the web and in electronics stores.

• Fiber RX 1 (with SFP-13103G-M1DRX Dual Receiver fiber optic sub-
module or SFP-13103G-M1TRX Transceiver fiber optic submodule
installed), or
• Fiber Input RX 2 (with SFP-13103G-M1DRX Dual Receiver fiber optic
submodule installed).
All input sources can be connected but only be one input can be active at
any time. The active input is configured with local onboard controls (Con-
figuration Switches S1 and S2 on page 15) or using the Settings web page
(page 33). The video input type (SD or HD) is selected in configuration
