1Introduction
he 3400 is a serial digital video distribution amplifier designed to be used in the
ICON series of 1RU or 3RU frames. It offers up to ten equalised and re-clocked serial
digital outputs and takes both 20mm and 30mm rear connectors. Automatic or
manual standard selection of all data rates up to 360Mbit/s is provided.
he features available are:
•five outputs with the 20mm K3400.2 rear connector
•ten outputs with the 30mm K3400.3 rear connector
•first five outputs are DVB-ASI compliant outputs (non-inverting)
•adaptive input equalisation
•re-clocking with automatic bit rate detection
•143/177/270/360 Mbit/s modes
•COSMOS equipped

2Installation
For module installation instructions please refer to the appropriate ICON rack frame
section of the manual
2.1Selecting the rear connector
he 3400 may be used with either the 20mm K3400.2 rear connector providing five
outputs or the 30mm K3400.3 rear connector providing ten outputs. Only the first
five, non-inverting outputs can be used for ASI.

3onfiguration
3.1Setting the re-clock speed
he re-clocking speed can be automatically determined by the module or manually
selected. If COSMOS control is used, the re-clock speed can also be made remotely.
Use SW1 to make the selection.

4Trouble shooting
The Error and No I/P LEDs are lit
•check that a serial digital video signal is connected to the rear connector input
BNC
The Error (No lock) LED is lit
•check that the input signal is a valid serial digital video signal with a basic clock
rate of 143, 177, 270 or 360 Mbit/s.
Half the outputs appear not to work
•check that only the non-inverting outputs (1 to 5) are used for ASI signals
The Power LED is not lit
•check mains power to the frame is turned on
•if necessary check the PSU as explained in the power supply section
•check the card is plugged in securely
•check to see if one of the re-setable fuses have operated. o do this turn the
power off, wait for thirty seconds and then restore the power.

5OSMOS Status Monitoring
If the frame is equipped with a COSMOS controller card the following parameters will
be reported back to the COSMOS status monitoring system.
•auto/standard switch status
•data rate select switch status
•no input present detect status
•error or PLL lock status
•local/remote control select switch status
In remote mode, the auto/standard mode select and manual data rate selection may
be controlled through COSMOS.
In addition, the module is programmed with the following information, which can be
read by the status monitoring controller:
•module present
•module type
•module bar code
•module issue no
For further details of the Pro-Bel status monitoring system please refer to the
COSMOS status monitoring manual.
