TRANSMITTER, SB-3G-FTX
The transmitter front is shown in figure 1. There are only two LEDs to show power state,
PWR, and status of the optics, OPT. These LEDs should both light in normal operation. If
OPT is not lit, it could mean a failure of the laser, and service will be required.
RECEIVER, SB-3G-FRX
The receiver front is shown in figure 2. There are five LEDs to show power state, PWR, and
optical power received in dBm, -5, -10, -15, or -20. One of these 4 LEDs should light in
normal operation to indicate the received power. Note that a -20 indication would be a
borderline weak signal. Better reception can be achieved by shorting the link, reducing the
number of splices and barrels, and ensuring the optical connectors are clean.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
The SilverBULLET 3G Series operates from 110 or 220 VAC with the included wall-mount 5V
power supply or other source in a range from 5 to 16 VDC and at least 2W of power. It uses a
mini XLR 4Pin type connector, as shown in figure 3. If desired, the units are capable of being
powered from a battery pack instead of the wall unit.
