3. Top panel connectors
3.1 ASI Input and Output
HD PRO TAB is equipped with ASI input and output on standard 75Ω BNC connectors,
compliant with standard EN50083-9. The ASI input is always active, while ASI output could
be activated in meter’s configuration menu.
3.2 10MHz and 1PPS inputs *
HD PRO TAB is equipped with 10MHz and 1PPS inputs on standard 75Ω BNC connectors
for Transport Stream analysis purposes, like Network Delay and PCR measurements.

3.3 RF inputs: 75Ω F connector and 50Ω N connector
HD PRO TAB has 2 different RF inputs: a 75Ω F connector input and a 50Ω N connector
input. Both RF interfaces accept signals with power level between 30 and 120dBµV and
comply with standards ETS300744 (OFDM), ETS300421 (QPSK) and EN302307 (QPSK,
8PSK, 16APSK).
3.3.1 RF Inputs: optical input connector
HD PROTAB can be equipped on demand with an optical input along with one of the
two other RF inputs available, either 50Ω N connector or 75Ω F connector). A
specific Optical Measurement Interface will then be accessible in the Meter’s Home
page.
3.4 Common Interface
HD PRO TAB is equipped with a Common Interface slot compliant with EN50221 standard
(DVB-CI) capable to manage both consumer single service decryption CAM and
professional multi-service decryption CAM.
The meter detects automatically the CAM module once inserted in the PCMCIA slot and
gives information about the CAM manufacturer, module firmware version and status.
3.5 Remote bypass switch – DC at RF input
HD PRO TAB is able to bias directly LNBs as well as terrestrial antenna distribution
systems with a DC voltage from 5 to 24V available on both RF input connectors. The DC
internal generator can be activated via software, while configuring the meter for satellite or
terrestrial measurements, but can be activated / deactivated via this hardware switch.
Physical switch activation is mandatory for software DC generator configurations to take
effect.
