Preface
Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
Directive 2002 / 95 / EC—commonly known as the European Union
(EU) Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS)—sets limits on the
use of certain substances found in electrical and electronic equipment.
The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of hazardous
chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate
the environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive takes effect
on July 1, 2006, and it refers to the following hazardous substances:
• Lead (Pb)
• Mercury (Hg)
• Cadmium (Cd)
• Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
• Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
• Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
In accordance with this EU Directive, all Leitch Technology products
sold in the European Union will be fully RoHS-compliant and
“lead-free.” (See the Leitch Web site, www.leitch.com
, for more
information on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Spare parts
supplied for the repair and upgrade of equipment sold before
July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Leitch equipment that
complies with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant
symbol, as shown in Figure P-1.

Preface
Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Directive
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002 / 96 / EC on Waste from
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection,
treatment, recovery, and recycling of electrical and electronic waste
products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the
responsibility for the disposal of associated hazardous waste to either
the producers or users of these products. Effective August 13, 2005,
producers or users will be required to recycle electrical and electronic
equipment at end of its useful life, and must not dispose of the
equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some
EU member states may have different deadlines.)
In accordance with this EU Directive, Leitch Technology International,
Inc. and other companies selling electric or electronic devices in the EU
will affix labels indicating that such products must be properly
recycled. (See the Leitch Web site, www.leitch.com
, for more
information on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Contact your local
Leitch sales representative for information on returning these products
for recycling. Leitch equipment that complies with the EU directive will
be marked with a WEEE-compliant symbol, as shown in Figure P-2.

2 DVSD / DVSE6800+ Installation and Operation Manual
Chapter 1: Introduction
Product Description
The DVSD / DVSE6800+ dual distribution amplifiers provide two
channels of SD-ASI video distribution; the DVSE6800+ also provides
cable equalizing and reclocking. The DVSD / DVSE6800+ dual
distribution amplifiers provide four outputs for each input (two 1×4s),
and provide a method that allows for a single channel distribution
amplifier with 8 outputs (one 1×8). DVSD / DVSE6800+ dual
distribution amplifiers feature high video performance, low cost, and
remote indication of signal presence and alarms. They feature high
video performance, low cost, remote control, and diagnostic capability
in Leitch's control system.
• The DVSD6800+ can distribute any 10 – 540 Mb / s data within the
amplitude limitation.
• The DVSE6800+ can handle 143 Mb / s, 177 Mb / s, 270 Mb / s,
360 Mb / s and 540 Mb / s serial digital video signals; and SMPTE
310 and ASI signals.
You can set up, control, and monitor a DVSD / DVSE6800+ locally via
card-edge jumper or remotely on a PC. For remote control, you can use
either a serial RS-232 or optional ICE6800+ Ethernet connection.
Typical Broadcast and Production Applications
The DVSD / DVSE6800+ dual amplifier can be used in broadcast,
cable, production, educational, and auditorium applications where a low
cost method of distributing SDI / ASI video signals is required.
Main Features
DVSD / DVSE6800+
• Two inputs, four outputs per input (two 1×4s) or one input, eight
outputs (one 1×8)
• Identical polarity between input and outputs (ASI compliance)
• Automatic cable equalization
• Automatic bypass if the signal cannot be reclocked
• Manual (force ) bypass option
• Input signal presence detect
• Auto cable EQ
• Alarm output
