NewStream User Guide and Technical Manual
A fully equipped NewStream system is High Defi nition-ready and provides a robust
HD link from the fi eld to the studio with several digital video input formats accepted. In
addition,
NewStream accepts analog audio inputs.
NewStream ODUs can be single or dual band confi gurations and come in many
different RF bands. These ODUs contain integrated RF up-conversion circuitry and
high power RF amplifi ers for maximum power and signal quality. With the new demands
for digital modulation, the ODUs have been optimized for improved Modulation Error
Ratio/Error Vector Magnitude [MER/EVM] performance with COFDM transmission.
Operational Modes
The following NewStream IDU and ODU I/O connections are available:
o
Video and Audio:
• HD/SD SDI video input. One dedicated BNC connector.
• Analog composite video input. One dedicated BNC connector.
• AES/EBU Audio input. Two AES/EBU channels supported through DB25
connector.
• Analog Audio input. Two analog stereo pairs supported through DB25 connector.
• Unbalanced 75 Ohm audio input. One AES audio supported through DB25
connector.
o
Transport Stream:
• ASI Transport Stream MPEG2 format input. One dedicated BNC connector.
o
Data Interfaces:
• USB interface. One USB connector on system front.
• Ethernet interfaces. Total of three Ethernet RJ-45 connectors.
• Serial interface. Two serial inputs/outputs supported through DB9 connector; one
DB15 serial connector exclusively for Wayside Data.
o
ODU to IDU interfaces [one each]:
• Ethernet Interface via Multimedia over Coax Alliance [MoCA] RF interfaces.
• ODU 1 port provides either 950 MHz or 70 MHz depending on type of ODU
[i.e. legacy or
NewStream].
• ODU 2 port provides 70 MHz for legacy ODU when dual band legacy ODUs
are in use. Note that legacy and NewStream ODUs cannot be connected
simultaneously.
• Satellite Device attached to L-Band out
• Test Loopback device attached to L-Band Monitor
• Cellular ODU attached to Cellular ODU port
