1.6 Safety
Carefully review all safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to this product or any products connected to it. If this product is rack-
mountable, it should be mounted in an appropriate rack using the rack-mounting positions and rear support guides provided. It is recommended
that each frame be connected to a separate electrical circuit for protection against circuit overloading. If this product relies on forced air cooling, it
is recommended that all obstructions to the air flow be removed prior to mounting the frame in the rack.
If this product has a provision for external earth grounding, it is recommended that the frame be grounded to earth via the protective earth ground
on the rear panel.
CAUTION!
!
IMPORTANT! Only qualified personnel should perform service procedures.
1.6.1 Safety Terms and Symbols in this Manual
WARNING!
!
Statements identifying conditions or practices that may result in personal injury or loss of life. High voltage is present.
CAUTION!
!
Statements identifying conditions or practices that can result in damage to the equipment or other property.
1.6.2 Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Compliance
Directive 2002/95/EC—commonly known as the European Union (EU) Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS)—sets limits on the use of
certain substances found in electrical and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of hazardous chemicals that
may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive takes effect on July 1, 2006,
and it refers to the following hazardous substances:
1Lead (Pb)
2Mercury (Hg)
3Cadmium (Cd)
4Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
5Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
6Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
According to this EU Directive, all products sold in the European Union will be fully RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” (See our visit our support web
sites: http://www.broadcast.harris.com/support/ and https://premier.harris.com/broadcast/, for more information on dates and deadlines for
compliance.) Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade of equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Equipment
that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant emblem, as shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1 RoHS Compliance Emblem

1.6.3 Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Compliance
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection, treatment,
recovery, and recycling of electrical and electronic waste products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the responsibility for the
disposal of associated hazardous waste to either the producers or users of these products. Effective August 13, 2005, producers or users will be
required to recycle electrical and electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and may not dispose of the equipment in landfills or by using other
unapproved methods. (Some EU member states may have different deadlines.)
In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or electronic devices in the EU will affix labels indicating that such products must
be properly recycled. (See our visit our support web sites: http://www.broadcast.harris.com/support/ and https://premier.harris.com/broadcast/, for
more information on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Contact your local sales representative for information on returning these products for
recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a WEEE-compliant emblem, as shown in Figure 1-2.

Chapter 2: IPA6800+ Module and I/O
Interface 2
2.1 Overview
The IPA6800+ ASI on IP Video Gateway performs the following functions.
• Encapsulates ASI into Gigabit Ethernet.
• De-encapsulates ASI from Gigabit Ethernet.
Transmit Mode
In transmission mode the IPA6800+ maps ASI into IP packets and applies Forward Error Correction (FEC) to ensure the highest possible level of
quality in network throughput.
Receive Mode
In receive mode, the IPA6800+ receives IP and uses Forward Error Correction (FEC) as needed, to reconstruct the original ASI stream.
The IPA6800+ provides a card edge control for basic Ethernet IP address provisioning. Thereafter the provisioning process may be completed
using either +Pilot or Navigator or Navigator provisioned with the board’s IP address
2.2 Product Description
The IPA6800+ ASI on IP Video Gateway is part of Leitch’s 6800+ series of processing and conversion modules. It has the following features.
• Two (2) ASI video inputs conforming to DVB-ASI A011 Rev 1.0.
• Four (4) ASI video outputs. Outputs are paired. Each pair of BNCs presents the same signal on two interfaces.
• One (1) 1000 BaseT Ethernet Interface.

2.4 Electrical Interfaces
2.4.1 ASI Out
The IPA6800+ can simultaneously provide two unique ASI signals. Each such signal is presented on two BNC outputs. All ASI connections
require 75-Ohm characteristic impedance coaxial cable. In general, reliable operation can be achieved with cable lengths of up to 100 meters.
2.4.2 ASI In
The IPA6800+ can simultaneously receive two unique ASI signals. Each such signal is received through either the ‘ASI 1 IN’ or the ‘ASI 2 IN’
interface. These two input interfaces support each ASI signal that the IPA6800+ can put on IP. All ASI connections require 75-Ohm characteristic
impedance coaxial cable. In general, reliable operation can be achieved with cable lengths of up to 100 meters.
