Description
General
The Output amplifier OPA 8500 amplifies TV/QAM/FM signals, which are present on the
inputs of the OPA 8500. The OPA 8500 supplies the following coaxial or optical
downstream distribution system with the amplified signals.
The RF-output, RF-inputs and two RF-monitoring outputs operate in the frequency
range 47 ... 862 MHz. The OPA 8500 is built with two parallel hybrids. Two equivalent
mains connections are available via the rear-panel.
The OPA 8500 is used in a combining network. The combining network consists of the
following functional groups:
lRF-combiner RFC 8500/5
lRF-combiner RFC 8500/4
l1 HU Mounting frame MIO 8500 (for maximal 3 RF-combiners)
lOutput amplifier OPA 8500
The OPA 8500 has 10 RF-inputs and one RF-ouptut. The RF-inputs are meant:
lfor TV- or QAM-signals (4 RF-inputs)
lfor FM-signals (4 RF-inputs)
lfor pilot frequency signals or wobbler (2 RF-inputs)

Design
View
The OPA 8500 is built asa1HU19"slide-in module.
The front-panel contains:
lthe display
lthe LED’s
lthe operating elements
ltwo RF monitoring outputs
The rear-panel contains:
l2 x mains connection
l10 x RF input
lRF output
lRS232 interface
l10 Mbit Ethernet-interface
lRemote monitoring interface ”ALARMS”
Cooling The SAI 8500 is cooled by convection.
Power supply
The OPA 8500 can be operated with the following mains voltages:
l115 VAC
l230 VAC
The power supply is of redundant design. For back-up purposes there are two mains
connectors available on the rear-panel. The OPA 8500 can be integrated into a back-up
supply system.
ATTENTION: Before operation make sure that the mains voltage matches the
supply voltage indicated on the device.
The mains fuse is located beside the mains socket. The OPA 8500 does not have a
mains switch. To disconnect the OPA 8500 from the mains, both mains plugs must be
pulled out of the device. Both mains voltages (mains 1, mains 2) can be monitored
through alarm messages.

Control
General For controlling there are the following possibilities:
lKeypad and display on the OPA 8500 (see chapter ”Menu operation”)
l10 Mbit Ethernet-interface (Software option “Network Access Control”)
lRS 232 Interface for stand-alone devices (Software option “Network Access
Control*)
Remote control in a
network
(software option)
The OPA 8500 can be remote controlled via the Ethernet interface or RS232 interface.
A standard WWW-browser with TCP/IP protocol (e.g. Internet Explorer) is to be used.
The remote control can be disabled on the OPA 8500.
Monitoring
General For monitoring there are the following possibilities:
lkeypad and display
lLED’s “ f” and “OUT” (see interfaces and operating elements)
lMonitoring outputs “RF m”
l10 Mbit Ethernet-interface (Software option “Network Access Control”)
lRS 232 interface for stand-alone devices (Software option “Network Access
Control”)
lRemote monitoring interface ”ALARMS”
lHistory / operation log (see menu operation)
lStatus display (see menu operation)
Remote monitoring
interface ”ALARMS”
On the remote monitoring interface ”ALARMS” the status messages ”ALARM” and
”WARNING” are signalled via two floating double-throw contacts.
To the floating double-throw contacts external error indicators ( e.g. siren, lamp) can be
connected. The pin-assignment is shown in the section ”Interfaces and operating
elements”.

Amplifier
The amplifier consists of two parallel hybrids (Amplifier A, Amplifier B). The current
consumption and the temperature of both hybrids are monitored. For monitoring the
temperature an alarm and warning threshold can be set. The nominal temperature
range of the amplifier is -10oCupto+55oC.
