This manual is designed to assist the user with installation, setup and operation of the NDS ZeroWire®
G2 Wireless HD video system.
A numbered tab on the side of the page denotes the beginning of a section.
The functional descriptions in this manual are representative of:
Part Numbers:
90T2071 = ZeroWire G2 Receiver
90T2072 = ZeroWire G2 Transmitter (Input: DVI and 3G-SDI)
Manual Part Number: 60A0571 Rev A 27 February 2015
The ZeroWire G2 transmitter and receiver pair allows wireless delivery of video signals from the DVI or 3G-
SDI output of an endoscopic camera processor or other video source to the DVI input of a video display. It
operates as a 60Ghz-Based Wireless HD system in compliance with FCC (Part 15) rules governing the
unlicensed 57-64 GHz band which is located in the millimetre-wave (mmW) portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum. At any time, a minimum separation of 20 cm must be maintained from the operating device and
the user or patient.
The system is composed of a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx) pair. The Tx and Rx are designed to be
mounted on the top rear edge of a display on a surgical cart. The Tx may obtain its
input video signal from either an endoscopic camera processor or the display’s DVI or SDI re-drive outputs.
The Rx’ output is connected to the display’s DVI input The units are powered from the provided 24 VDC
power supply (“wall-wart”) or through the optional ‘Y’ adapter cable*. The ‘Y’ adapter cable is described on
page 4. A typical installation is shown on page 8.
*Note: The ‘Y’ adapter cables are for use with displays that are powered by 24 VDC and whose
power connector accepts one of the J2 connectors shown on page 4.
The NDSsi ZeroWire G2 Wireless HD Video System is a paired transmitter and receiver, intended for
delivery of video signals over a radio-frequency link to a video display during endoscopic and general
surgical procedures. The ZeroWire G2 Wireless HD Video System is a non-sterile reusable device not
intended for use in the sterile field. It is intended for use by qualified physicians having complete
knowledge of these surgical procedures.
Contraindications:
1. These units are non-sterile reusable devices and are not intended for use within a sterile eld.
2. This equipment may not be used in the presence of ammable anesthetics mixture with air, oxygen or
nitrous oxide.
No part of this product may come in contact with a patient. Never touch the product and a patient at the
same time.
For mission critical applications, we strongly recommend that a replacement ZeroWire G2
transmitter and receiver pair, and a DVI cable be immediately available. Additionally, we
recommend that a display that is hard wired to the video source be immediately available
whenever a surgical procedure is in progress. See typical installation drawing on page 10.
OR rooms whose walls and/or ceiling are constructed with metal sheets, may reduce ZeroWire G2
performance. This condition can be mitigated by moving the Tx and Rx closer to each other, setting
their line-of-sight to 0 degrees (see item 1 on page 12), and ensuring that there are no obstructions
between the Tx and the Rx.
