1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professionals on a daily basis.
2 Getting Started We recommend that you: Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment Review the contents of this user manual i 2.1 Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
2.2 Safety Instructions ! 2.3 Caution: There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit Warning: Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with the unit Warning: Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall before installing Recycling Kramer Products The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by requiring it to be collected and recycled.
3 Overview The 6808HDxl is a high−performance audio de−embedder for 3G HD−SDI video signals. The unit can de−embed two selectable AES audio streams. The 6808HDxl features: A maximum data rate of 3Gpbs 1 SDI input and 1 SDI output on BNC connectors AES-3id outputs on BNC connectors Group select DIP-switches to choose the group to de-embed Kramer reKlocking™ & Equalization Technology that rebuilds the digital signal to travel longer distances 3.
# Feature Function 1 HD/SD-SDI IN BNC Connector Connects to the SDI source 2 HD/SD-SDI OUT BNC Connector Connects to the SDI acceptor 3 AES OUTPUT A Connects to AES acceptor 1 (channel 1) 4 AES OUTPUT B Connects to AES acceptor 2 (channel 2) 5 5V DC +5V DC connector for powering the unit 6 LOCK LED Illuminates green when an SD signal is detected or blue when an HD signal is detected 7 GROUP SELECT DIP-switches Selects the audio group to de-embed (from 1 to 4) 8 ON LED Illuminates g
4 Connecting the 6808HDxl i Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your 6808HDxl. After connecting your 6808HDxl, connect its power and then switch on the power to each device. To connect the 6808HDxl as illustrated in the example in Figure 3: 1. Connect an SD/HD/3G HD-SDI source (such as an HD/SD digital video player) to the HD/SD-SDI IN BNC connector. 2. Connect the HD/SD-SDI OUT BNC connector to an SDI acceptor (such as an SDI display). 3.
Figure 3: Connecting the 6808HDxl HD/SD-SDI AES De-Embedder Note: Each audio group in an SDI signal contains four mono channels, thus the SDI stream carries a total 16 mono channels. Each AES digital signal contains two mono channels. For example, if group 1 audio is selected for de-embedding, output 1 contains channels 1 and 2 from group 1, and output 2 contains channels 3 and 4 from group 1.
