Python 3G Transceiver

Thefollowing model is the PY3-AR00-ST8 with four SDI/Data inputs and four SDI/Data
outputs. The inputs are converted to four fiber outputs and the outputs are converted from
four fiber inputs. The number of BNC connectors corresponds to the type model:

• Four receive and four transmit

• Eight receive and eight transmit

• Four receive and eight transmit

• Eightreceive and four transmit.

The front panel is identical to the similar CWDM equipped model with a single fiber input
and a single fiber output.

The Python 3G Receiver Front Panel has three features:

A - SDI/Data In - see

Area A – SDI/DATA IN

Fig. 3-10: 4 SDI/DATA In BNC Connectors

The Python 3G Transceiver has four SDI/DATA In BNC Connectors. All four inputs operate
identically.For CWDM models,they are multiplexed for transmission on the fiber output of
the unit for demultiplexing to the four SDI outputs on the receiving unit. On pass-through
models, conversion to fiber optical signal occurs individually and four Fiber Optic optic
outputs are available on the rear panel.

The SDI/DATA connections can carry a variety of Baseband and Data type signals (see

Specifications

on page 47 for a list).

Each input has an LED monitor that indicates the following:

Green: SDI signal present

Unlit: nothing connected
