2.1 Mounting
Before installing the units into your housing, make sure there is
enough space to pull and connect both the electrical and optical
cables without stressing them beyond the manufacturer’s
limitations (also known as the minimum bend radius).
2.2 Cabling and Connectors
In order to setup the BCI 235 properly, make sure to observe
the following instructions when installing the proper cables. The
235 requires two parts to the cabling setup: the electrical and
the optical.
2.2.1 Electrical Cable Connection
The three available cable connections on the electrical side are
for video, audio and data connections. Follow the proceeding
instructions in order to properly install your electrical
connections.
2.2.1.1 Video Interface
The 235 is capable of receiving and transmitting one baseband
S-video signal unidirectionally/bi-directionally, respectively. The
video signals are connected through an S-video cable (e.g.,
RG59U). Use the following procedure for installing video devices.
For the near-end TX unit, connect and label one S-video cable
to the user’s video source connector labeled “VIDEO OUTPUT”
(e.g., camera) and connect the other end of the cable to the
235 “S-VIDEO” connector. (See Figure 2-3). Note that the
user can also connect two NTSC/PAL sources through “Video
1 and 2” BNC connectors.
