FCC/IC RFI STATEMENTS

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

AND

CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS

Class B Digital Device. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with

the limits for a Class B computing device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or telephone

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user

is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction

2. Introduction

With the Video Stereo Audio Balun, you can transmit composite baseband video

and audio signals across Category 3 or better unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable,

which is already wired into most commercial sites. Use pairs of Baluns to transmit

standard NTSC, PAL, or SECAM composite video with stereo audio: The Balun

near the media source takes a single composite baseband video signal from 75-ohm

coaxial cable, as well as left and right audio signals from two 600-ohm phono

cables, converts the signals, and transmits them over UTP cable to the other Balun,

which converts them back and sends them to their destination.

Connect the Video Stereo Audio Balun to a site’s structured cabling through a

modular wall jack in the work area. Each Balun has a BNC connector and two RCA

connectors at one end and an RJ-45 jack at the other end.

The Video Stereo Audio Balun is designed for use with CCTV cameras and

monitors, video-cassette recorders (NTSC, PAL, or SECAM), video-conferencing,

and other baseband audiovisual equipment. Applications include: security/

surveillance monitoring, video bulletin boards, financial information services, news

services, education, video training, airport displays, video capture, and

informational displays in stock exchanges, hotels, and convention centers.

3. Installation

To install a pair of Video Stereo Audio Baluns, take these steps:

CAUTION!

Do not attempt to open the housing. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside the Video Stereo Audio Balun. Opening the unit will void your

warranty.

1. Make sure that the video-destination device is not too far away from the

media-source device(s) (refer to the Maximum Distance specification in

Chapter 1). If the destination device is beyond the reach of the source Balun,

the signals the device receives will be weak or nonexistent.

2. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for turning off power to the video and

audio equipment you will be attaching, and disconnecting that equipment

from AC power and from all other devices.

3. Make certain that the telecommunications outlets and cross-connects to

which you will connect the Baluns are configured properly and are labeled so

that the circuit can be identified.

4. Verify that the twisted-pair circuit you want to use is not already being used

for other LAN or telephone equipment.

CAUTION!

Do not connect the Video Stereo Audio Balun to a telecommunication

outlet wired to unrelated equipment. Making such a connection may

damage the equipment and/or the Balun. Please make sure that all

wiring is straight-through-pinned.

Do not mount the Video Stereo Audio Balun over equipment-

ventilation openings. Covering the openings may cause the equipment

to overheat.

5. For each Balun—depending on what type of video equipment you are

attaching it to—either plug its BNC female connector directly into the

device’s BNC male connector, or plug the Balun into a cable that runs to the

device (this cable must have a BNC male connector on the Balun end). You

can also run phono cables from your audio source(s) and plug them into the

Balun’s RCA phono jacks; you can use one or both of the audio channels, as

appropriate for your application. Refer to Figure 3-1 on the next page.

CHAPTER 3: Installation

Figure 3-1. The Balun and its connectors.

6. Connect one end of a UTP cable into each Balun’s RJ-45 modular jack. To

carry the video signal, these cables must carry a wire pair pinned to RJ-45

Pins 7 and 8. To carry the left audio signal, the cables must carry a pair

pinned to Pins 3 and 6. To carrythe right audio signal, the cables must carry a

pair pinned to Pins 1 and 2.

7. Plug the other end of each UTP cable into the appropriate video wall outlet

or patch panel. When this is done, a complete cabling circuit should run

between the two baluns, as shown in Figure 3-2 below.

Figure 3-2. Two Baluns cabled together.

8. Reconnect and power up the video and audio equipment.

Your Video Stereo Audio Balun system should be ready for continuous operation.

4. Troubleshooting

4.1 Things to Try If Problems Occur

If at any time your Video Stereo Audio Balun system does not seem to be working

properly, take these steps:

1. Following the manufacturer’s instructions, perform diagnostics on your video

and/or audio equipment.

2. If this doesn’t solve the problem, check all cable connections and the integrity

of your site wiring.

3. You might be trying to transmit the audio/video signals across too great a

length of cable. The maximum distance over which the Baluns can transmit

and receive video signals depends on your cable and your video and audio

equipment; refer to the Maximum Distance specification in Chapter 1.

4. Make sure that the patch cord you are running beteen the Balun and your

site’s wiring system is the correct cable type and is properly pinned (see the

Cable Required specification in Chapter 1).

5. If possible, replace the Video Stereo Audio Baluns involved in the problem

with Video Stereo Audio Baluns that are known to be working, one at a time.

If at any point the problem goes away, there is probably a defect in the Balun

you just replaced.

6. If you still cannot diagnose the problem, call Black Box for technical support

as described in the next section.

CHAPTER 4: Troubleshooting

4.2 Calling Black Box

If you determine that a Video Stereo Audio Balun is malfunctioning, do not attempt

to alter or repair the unit. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Contact Black Box

Technical Support at 724-746-5500.
