1.1.2 IQSDA42
The IQSDA42 is a configurable single, dual or quad-channel SDI distribution amplifier for
UHD-1 12 Gbit/s, HD 3 Gbit/s, 1.5 Gbit/s or SD 270 Mbit/s signals, providing up to 19
equalized and re-clocked outputs of the input in a single width-package. Its 60m 12G, 80m 3G,
180m HD input equalization performance coupled with excellent packing density make it ideal
for signal-dense distribution applications.

The following SFP modules are available for the IQSDA range:
1.3 Enclosures
The IQSDA4x modules can be fitted into the enclosure types below.
1.3.1 B-style Enclosures
1.3.1.1 IQH3B-S-0, IQH3B-S-P
1.3.1.2 IQH4B-S-P
FC1-13TR-12G Fiber transceiver, 1 x 12G Rx, 1 x 12G Tx (1310nm).
FC1-13T2-12G Fiber transceiver 2 x 12G Tx (1310nm).
FC1-13R2-12G Fiber transceiver 2 x 12G Rx.
Important:
Although IQ modules are interchangeable between enclosures, their rear panels are
enclosure-specific. IQH3B and IQH4B enclosures accept modules with either Aor Border
codes. IQH3A or IQH1A enclosures accept modules with Aorder codes only.
Note:
The IQH3B and IQH4B enclosures provide two internal analog reference inputs. These
inputs are applicable to modules with Border codes only.

IQSDA41/42 Connections
Issue 1 Rev 1 Page 14 © 2017 SAM
3 Connections
This section describes the physical input and output connections provided by the IQSDA41/42.
3.1.1 Bi-directional Connectors
Bi-directional connectors can be used as either an input or an output. They can be identified
by the gray shading and the twin ID numbers; the number in white is the input number, and
the number in black is the output number.
3.1 SDI Input/Output
Serial digital inputs and outputs are via
HD-BNC connectors which terminate in
75 Ohms. The number of connectors
varies according to the actual module
variant in use.
Connectors are color-coded for easy identification:
Black shading indicates an input;
Gray shading indicates a bi-directional connector (see below);
No shading indicates an output.

IQSDA41/42 Rear Panel LEDs
Issue 1 Rev 1 Page 15 © 2017 SAM
4RearPanelLEDs
The LEDs on the rear panel of the module indicate input status. There is one LED per input.
•When Green: Input enabled, signal valid.
•When Yellow: Input disabled or Reclocker Bypass active.
•When Red: No signal on input or signal not valid.
See section 5.3 for information on enabling/disabling inputs.

5 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel
This section contains information on using IQSDA41/42 modules with RollCall.
For help with general use of the RollCall application, open the user manual by clicking
on the main RollCall toolbar.
5.1 Navigating Pages in the RollCall Template
The RollCall template has a number of pages, each of which can be selected from the
drop-down list at the top left of the display area. Right-clicking anywhere on the pages will
also open a page view list, allowing quick access to any of the pages.
5.1.1 Setting Values
Many of the settings within the templates have values, either alpha or numeric.
When setting a value in a field, the value, whether text or a number, must be saved by
pressing the ENTER key, or clicking the Save Value button.
Clicking an associated Preset Value button returns the value to the factory default
setting.
5.1.2 Template Pages
The following pages are available:
•Input Output - See section 5.3.
•Setup - See section 5.4.
•Logging - Misc - See section 5.5.
•Logging - Input - See section 5.6.
•Logging - Output 1-n- See section 5.7.
•RollTrack - See section 5.8.
•Memory 1-16 - See section 5.9.
Note:
The IQSDA4x will dynamically configure itself depending on rear and SFP options. The
RollCall control panel will change to reflect the current product configuration.
The pages shown in this section are for guidance and reference only, and may be slightly
different to those on your module.

5.2 Information Window
The Information window is displayed at the top of each page, next to the pages list. It can
displays basic information about the input and output status of the module; select a radio
button as required.

IQSDA41/42 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel
Issue 1 Rev 1 Page 18 © 2017 SAM
5.3 Input Output Page
The Input Output page enables inputs and outputs to be configured, and determines how the
module behaves in the event of an input error.
5.3.1 Configuration
Use the radio buttons to select the input/output configuration. The options available are
dependant on the particular module hardware configuration in use; the other controls on the
page will also vary depending on the option selected.
5.3.2 Inputs
These controls are used to configure inputs; select the input rate(s) to be re-clocked.
Re-clocking can be disabled on an output-by-output basis if required (see section 5.3.3), or
globally by enabling Reclocker Bypass.
•Rate Select: Enable check boxes to specify the rate(s) to which an input will be
re-clocked. If check boxes are disabled, input signals at those rates will be muted.
•Reclocker Bypass: Enable to prevent re-clocking on all input signals.
5.3.3 Outputs
Each output can be muted individually; select Mute to manually apply mute as required.
.
Note:
If an incoming signal contains errors or is otherwise invalid, it will be automatically muted.

5.4 Setup
The Setup page displays basic information about the module, such as the serial number and
software versions. Use the functions on the page to restart the module or return all settings to
their factory or default settings.
•Product: Name of the module.
•Software Version: Currently installed software version number.
•Serial No: Module serial number.
•Build: Factory build number. This number identifies all parameters of the module.
