The Selenio SEL-DDA1-xxx provides multiple functions. Conversion from SDI (270 Mb/s) to analog composite (dual channels) adds NTSC/PAL and PAL-M outputs to the Selenio platform. The DDA can be used as a single / dual distribution amplifier, small routing switcher SDI / ASI and electrical fiber optic converter. If placed beside a Selenio frame sync (FS) or conversion (XD), the DDA may be used as a VEX video expansion module.
The DDA may be placed in any open Selenio slot and has its own block diagram User Interface.
If used as a VEX, it must be installed beside a frame sync or video conversion applications module and will automatically be connected. When viewing the front of the frame, the DDA is placed to the left of the FS/XD applications module (lower slot number). The block diagram in the FS or XD User Interface is updated giving the user setup, control and monitoring functions. Five back module options provide interfaces for electrical and optical inputs and outputs and relay bypass for critical signals upon power loss — one with HD-BNC electrical connections for input and output; one with HD-BNC electrical connections for input and output and dual relays; one with a dual SFP optical input with HD-BNC outputs; one with HD-BNC inputs with two dual SFP optical outputs; and one with a dual SFP optical input and two dual SFP optical outputs.
SDI interfaces utilize a Belden-type 1505A, 1694A or 1695A cable (or equivalent) with HD-BNC connectors. HD-BNC to BNC adaptor cables and a cable insertion/removal tool are available for the HD-BNC connections.
Adding Analog Composite Outputs to the Selenio Platform
The DDA’s primary function is to add two analog composite outputs per DDA module to the Selenio platform. Within the DDA, it is possible to convert one or two 270 Mb/s SDI (electrical or optical) externally connected or one internally connected (any slot in the frame) to two analog composite outputs. For HD down conversion to analog composite output, the XD module is required.
SDI/ASI Distribution Amplifier Function
The DDA can be setup to operate as a single or dual channel SDI or ASI distribution amplifier.
SDI/ASI Small Routing Switcher
The DDA can be setup to operate as a small routing switcher for SDI or ASI.
Electrical/Optical Interface
The DDA can be used as a single or dual channel electrical to/from optical interface.

Relay Bypass
As well, for critical paths to pass program signals upon loss of power, relay bypass is a requirement. The DDA supports a version for dual replay bypass for SDI upon loss of power.
The DDA can be used to provide a “passive loop through for the ENC module” by taking the program signal into DDA bypass relay input and then taking the program signal from the bypass relay output to wherever it is needed in the system design and one of the active outputs can feed the input of the ENC.
MAGELLAN remote control panels can be set up to access all parameters for Selenio processing modules. The panels with an OLED display and rotary control add the capability to make adjustments with the rotary control and view the parameter changing and view status parameters.

**Relay bypass HD-BNC connectors are excluded from these equalization specifications. When in bypass mode, the module’s equalization depends on the sensitivity of the downstream device connected to the output of the Selenio DDA relay output. The module equalizes the total length of the sum of the input and output cables that connected to the relay by-passable HD-BNC connectors. | |
The DDA1 and VEX1 use an extended 3G-reach equalization. When combined with Belden 8281 coaxial cable, a pathological pattern, and a non-SPMTE424 (6.1.7)-compliant signal with excessive output amplitude excursions, the source equalization may be reduced to between 200 and 300 m for SD-SDI signals. This condition typically only occurs with older SD-SDI equipment having a 1uF capacitor on the output. All recent and multi-rate SD/HD/3G equipment is compliant with the standard (having at least a 4.7uF capacitor on the output), and can achieve 300 m with 8281 cable and pathological pattern. |
