Board Installation
Use the following steps to install the ADC-8032A in a RossGear 8000 series digital distribution frame:
Cable Connections
This section provides instructions for connecting cables to the ADC-8032A when mounted in
RossGear 8000 series Digital Products Frames. See the following frame rear panel diagram for BNC
input and output designations:
Connect the BNC cables as follows:
1. Refer to the User Manual of the RossGear 8000 series frame, to ensure that the
2. Please note that heat and power distribution requirements within a frame may dictate
3. After selecting the desired frame installation slot, hold the ADC-8032A card by the
1. Connect the Analog Composite IN BNC connector to the output of your analog
2. Connect BNCs 1 through 4 to the inputs of four component SDI devices.
3. Connect BNC 6 to any device that needs to track the video delay through the 8032A
4. If you wish to use the Comlink functionality, connect the BNC end of the Comlink
5. Connect a video reference one of two ways:

in any compatible frame other than a Ross Video product, refer to the frame
manufacturer’s manual for specific instructions.

should be arranged to avoid areas of excess heat build-up, particularly in frames
using convectional cooling.

or 8032A-S. (RossGear ADL-8520 AES/EBU Auto Tracking Audio Delay)
The TTL Tracking Delay Pulse is a positive 5V pulse. Its width tracks the video
delay as it passes through the card. The ADC-8032A TTL pulse tracks up to 2 video
lines, the ADC-8032A-S up to 2 fields.
