Power
| Requiring device power, air-conditioning power and lighting power are independent to each other. Device power requires AC 110V±10%, 50/60Hz or AC 220V±10%, 50/60Hz. Please
carefully check before running.
Grounding Requirement
- All function modules’ good grounding is the basis of the reliability and stability of devices. Also, they are the most important guarantee of lightning arresting and interference rejection. Therefore, the system must follow this rule.
- The grounding conductor must adopt a copper conductor in order to reduce high-frequency impedance, and the grounding wire must be as thick and short as possible.
- Users should make sure the 2 ends of the grounding wire well electric conducted and be antirust.
- It is prohibited to use any other device as part of grounding an electric circuit
- The area of the conduction between the grounding wire and the device’s frame should be no less than 25 mm2.
Frame Grounding
All the machine frames should be connected with the protective copper strip.
The grounding wire should be as short as possible and avoid circling. The area
of the conduction between the grounding wire and grounding strip should be no
less than 25mm2.
Device Grounding
Connect the device’s grounding rod to the frame’s grounding pole with copper
wire.
Wire’s Connection
Power cord connection
The power socket is located on the right of rear panel, and the power switch
is on the left of front panel. User can plug one end of the power cord to the
socket and insert the other end to AC power. When the device solely connects
to protective ground, it should adopt an independent way, say, share the same
ground with other devices. When the device adopts united way, the grounding
resistance should be smaller than 1Ω.
Caution: Before connecting power cord to BD-QAM-10G DTV Headend Processor, the user should set the power switch to “OFF”.
Signal and NMS Cable Connection
The signal connections include the connection of input signal cable and the
connection of the output signal cable.
Chapter 3 Web NMS Management
This device supports management by web-based NMS.
