9. Connect the transmitter as follows:
a. Connect power to the transmitter.
b. Route the fiber optic cable around the inside of the back box toward the transmitter and
connect the cable to the fiber optic connector on the transmitter.
WARNING: When routing the fiber optic cable, be careful not to bend the fiber
at a sharp angle. Doing so breaks the fiber.
c.
Using the coaxial cable supplied with the transmitter, connect the cable to the BNC
connector on the transmitter and on the camera.
NOTE: For additional information about connections to the transmitter, refer to the Connections
section.
10. Reconnect power to the camera.
11. Reattach the lower dome to the back box.
12. Reconnect power to the DF5/DF8 dome.

Mounting the Transmitter into a DF5/DF8 Pendant Dome
The following procedure provides instructions to mount the FT8301A transmitter into an existing DF5/
DF8 pendant dome installation.
To mount the transmitter into a DF5/DF8 pendant dome, do the following:
1. Mount the DF5/DF8 bracket to the transmitter (refer to the Mounting the DF5/DF8 Bracket to
the Transmitter section).
2. Disconnect power to the DF5/DF8 dome.
3. Feed the fiber optic cable through the wiring entrance of the dome into the back box.
WARNING: When routing the fiber optic cable, be careful not to bend the fiber at a
sharp angle. Doing so breaks the fiber.
back box.
5. Remove the lower dome from the back box.
6. Disconnect the power wires and video cable from the connectors on the camera.
7. Using a 7/16-inch wrench, remove the tilt bracket and attached camera from the back box. To
do so, loosen the nut on the stud of the tilt bracket and, while holding the camera securely,
remove the nut and associated flat washer and lock washer from the stud (refer to Figure 18).
NOTE: In Figure 18, the pan bracket is removed from the back box for illustration purposes only.
You do not need to remove the pan bracket from the back box.

8. Mount the transmitter into the back box as follows (refer to Figure 19):
NOTE: In Figure 19, the pan bracket is removed from the back box for illustration purposes only.
You do not need to remove the pan bracket from the back box.
a. Do either of the following:
•
If the dome is a DF5 dome, align the inner slot of the DF5/DF8 bracket with the slot
in the pan bracket of the back box.
•
If the dome is a DF8 dome, align the outer slot of the DF5/DF8 bracket with the
slot in the pan bracket of the back box.
b. Place the camera into the back box at the desired viewing angle.
c.
Insert the stud on the tilt bracket into the aligned slots of the pan bracket and the DF5/
DF8 bracket.
d. Reinstall the flat washer, lock washer, and nut on the stud of the tilt bracket but do not
tighten the nut.
e. Adjust the viewing angle of the camera as necessary.
f.
Tighten the nut on the stud of the tilt bracket using the 7/16-inch wrench.

*The FT8301A transmitter and compatible receivers are classified by the FDA as Class 1 laser products.
† When using 50/125 µm multimode fiber, subtract 3 dB from the optical power budget.
††Maximum transmission distance is limited by fiber bandwidth.
§ Maximum transmission distance is based on attenuation of 0.5 dB/km plus a 5 dB buffer for connector
and splice losses.
NOTES:
•
For conformal coated models, replace the first letter F in the model number with the letter C.
The conformal coated version of FT8301AMST, for example, is CT8301AMST.
