1Introduction
The NTSC-8 accepts encrypted video signals from a COM46 card via Ethernet, and modulates
those eight signals as analog NTSC, standard definition, unencrypted RF channels. One NTSC-8
will modulate eight channels from one COM46 card.
Connecting multiple NTSC-8s to a COM360 chassis using a Gigabit Ethernet switch (not included)
The system offers all the advantages of a COM2000 system including remote management, and is
expandable to high definition for cost effective upgrades in the future.
System requires one RU of rack space.
Ventilation fans are rear mounted. The front and rear areas of the NTSC-8 should be kept clear to
ensure good airflow.
Included in the box is the NTSC-8 unit and power supply.
Note: Technicolor only supports NTSC-8 installations when interfaced to COM46 cards in a
COM360 chassis.
2Front Panel Connections
All connections to the NTSC-8 are on the front panel as shown in Figure one above.

An external AC adaptor is included with the NTSC-8. The power adapter has a locking connector
that clicks when properly seated as shown below in Figure 2.

4Physical Connections
Figure 3 below details the connection of two NTSC-8 units connected to a COM2000 system. If
more than one unit is to be connected, a gigabit Ethernet switch (not included) is required between
a chassis GbE port and the NTSC-8s.
Connect remote management directly to an unused COM360 GbE port or to the GiGe switch.

Connect the Power Cord
Carefully insert the power cord into the Power port on the NTSC-8 as shown in Figure 4. When
properly seated in the power port the plug will snap into place with an audible click. To remove,
firmly pull back on the cover and remove the plug from the power port.

5COM46 Software Requirements and Setup
5.1 Software Requirements
COM46 cards need to be running software to version ST03.03.15 or later. You can verify software
version from the COM46 Pairing information page as shown below in Figure 5.
Figure 5 - COM46 Pairing Info Page
See COM2000 integrators manual or consult with your distributor if you need assistance upgrading
software.
5.2 COM46 Setup
Each COM46 card will stream eight channels to the NTSC-8. You will need to enter the IP
address of the first NTSC-8 modulator in the COM46 advanced edit page as shown below in
Figure 6. By default, the NTSC-8 IP addresses are set to 192.168.5.1 / 8.
Enter the IP address of the first modulator in the NTSC-8 in the NTSC8_IP field. Click Submit
Repeat in each COM46 card that is associated with a NTSC-8 unit.
(See section 5.1 below for setting up the NTSC-8).
Figure 6 - COM46 User Config
Once you have all the NTSC-8s and COM46s set up retune the channels or restart the COM 46
cards.

6NTSC-8 Setup
To access the NTSC user interface click on the NTSC tab as shown below in Figure 7 and Figure 8.
Note the box to the right of each field in the Control section. Checking this box will apply that
setting to all modulators in the NTSC-8.
