Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the new Bittree RS422 64-Port Active Data Patchbay. You
have purchased the latest innovation in data patchbays, which will help you accomplish your
RS422 patching with unprecedented speed and reliability. Please read this User Guide end-to-
end to familiarize yourself with all of your patchbay's features, and to ensure you will use it
safely and effectively.
1.1
Overview of the Patchbay
The new Bittree RS422 Active Data Patchbay delivers the most significant improvement in
RS422 patching since its inception, making it easier to route, manage, verify and diagnose
RS422 data connections.
The key innovation lies in the patchbay's auto-sensing transceivers that receive, interpret and re-
transmit perfectly regenerated RS422 signals, eliminating inductive and capacitive signal
distortion frequently imposed by traditional passive switches. The patchbay also provides a
powerful diagnostic tool that easily verifies the connection status between controllers and remote
devices (e.g., VTRs). The color-coded Indicator LEDs on the front panel display the
transmitting and receiving status of each device connected to the patchbay, providing you with a
reliable way to manage, verify and diagnose RS422 signals, as well as determine which devices
are set to "Master" and which to "Remote."
The RS422 Active Data Patchbay enhances the mechanical and electrical reliability of your
RS422 connections. Mechanically, your system will be more reliable because it uses standard,
robust bantam (TT) audio jacks and corresponding bantam audio patchcords, as opposed to the
more fragile "card edge" patchcords used by competing 2 x 32 patchbays that can cost twice as
much. Electrically, your system will be more reliable because the patchbay transmits
regenerated, pristine RS422 signals.
In addition to the signal-enhancement, diagnostic capabilities and increased reliability described
above, the form-factor of the new RS422 64-Port Data Patchbay is more efficient than that of
competing models, thanks to its 2 x 32 port configuration that perfectly matches standard routers.
To ensure uninterruptible operation and unmatched reliability, Model 422A32-D features dual,
redundant power supplies and automatic internal power switching in case of anomalous events.
Dual power indicator lights on the front panel provide complete status information on both
power supplies and the patchbay's power bus. Model 422A32 features a single power supply.
The RS422 Active Data Patchbay is ideal for multiple edit bays and machine rooms in post-
production, broadcast and duplication houses. And because the patchbay also serves as a
repeater, it excels in today's larger networked installations, helping to provide RS422 cable runs
of up to 8,000 feet, depending on the termination gear.
