AMG AMG2161 is a rackmount video transmitter that also provides bidirectional RS422/RS485 data transmission. It allows for the transmission of video signals over optical fiber, making it suitable for long-distance applications. The device features 75 ohm BNC connectors for video input and output, with an input impedance of 75 ohms and a nominal input level of 1 volt p-p. It supports a frequency response of 10Hz to 6MHz. The optical connection utilizes ST Style connectors and operates at a wavelength of 850nm.

RS422/485 Configuration
Due to the number of options for RS422 and RS485 operation the AMG2161 has to be
configured by the use of jumpers JP3 and JP4 on the PCB. The circuit board assembly is removed
by removing screws A and B on the rear panel and sliding the assembly out of the case. Note the
pin numbers are lowest at the bottom of the board (with the connectors to the right).
RS485 2 wires - The data out transmitter is controlled by the presence of data coming in from
the optical fibre. The transmitter is normally off. Incoming data on the optical fibre will turn
on the transmitter and it will be held on until all the data has been transmitted. When the
transmitter is enabled the receiver is disabled. JP 4 can be set up to match the data rate and
determines the delay between the end of the data transmission and the transmitter being
disabled is:
Data Rate JP 4 Setting Delay
74kbits/s 1-2 50s
19.2kbits/s 3-4 625s
9.6kbits/s 5-6 1.25ms
4.8kbits/s 7-8 2.5ms
n/a 9-10 5us

RS422 4 wire operation has two modes of operation as follows:
Point-to-Point - In this mode the data out transmitters and the data in receivers are
permanently enabled.
Multi-drop - The data out transmitter is controlled by the presence of data coming in from
the optical fibre as per RS485 operation.
120 ohm termination - If the line is required to be terminated then a jumper should be fitted
between pins 1 and 2 of JP 3.
The jumper settings for the AMG2161 are as illustrated:
Unless specifically specified to the contrary all units are shipped set up as RS485 and the
highest speed data rate setting as below.
