When a cable is used for video signals, small electrical currents caused by differences in ground potential (ground loops) or induced common-mode noise, can result in considerable hum interference. Cameras, video recorders, monitors and video effects generators... even switchers and computers downstream... are affected. Allen Avionics offers three types of products to eliminate hum caused by ground loops or induced currents. All are broadcast quality. Although they can be inserted anywhere in the transmission system, they are most effective at or near the end of the cable run. Hum Eliminators Hum eliminators work best in those circumstances where interference is cause by small differences in ground potential (less than 20v DC) or by induced currents in long cable runs. When there are multiple power panels in a building, or even on a single floor, equipment and lighting loads result in small differences in potential which induce ground loop current flow and 60Hz hum. Electromagnetically-induced currents in long cable runs also create hum. For 50Hz and 60Hz power systems, and where induced currents are high, HEC-2000 and HEC-2000-H increase the attenuation at the power frequency. Should a small amount of hum remain after an HEC has been added to the circuit, a second HEC can be added in series, without significant degradaton of the video signal. ◆ Flat response ◆ No differential gain distortion ◆ Small, compact package ◆ Bandwidths up to 30MHz (100 MHz on the ◆ No differential phase distortion ◆ Use in the field between remote truck; telco HEC-5000) ◆ Passive device-failure free and microwave; for intertruck hookup ◆ ◆ For color and B&W ◆ Reversible Use in the studio between buildings; on long ◆ runs in buildings; between studios and trans- No low frequency or high frequency roll-off ◆ Rugged, waterproof case mitters; incoming/outgoing telco circuits HEC-500: HEC-3000: 50 Ohms unbalanced (impedance), 50dB for 60Hz hum reduction 75 Ohms unbalanced (impedance), provides 3 channels of 60dB for depending on system, 0.2dB maximum insertion loss, 20dB minimum 50Hz or 60Hz hum reduction depending on system, 0.2 dB maximum 3 return loss.

For signals below 60Hz hum caused by ground loops. When there are hum problems 20MHz they are totally “transparent”. Since hum reduction, using video caused by large potential differences (20v or more) the video isolation noise eliminators, is not as great as with HECs, their use is recommended transformer is the product to use. The dielectric withstanding voltage of only where higher frequencies are involved. the VIT is over 500 volts at DC. VITs are true isolation transformers—there is no DC path between the windings. Frequency response is flat over the VNE-50: 50 Ohms unbalanced (impedance), 40dB for 60Hz hum range 20Hz to 4.5MHz.

Useful in matching video sources with varied cable runs. A video delay will take the place of the mound of coiled coax that some studios use to time equipment. Impedance is 75 Ohms, working voltage is100-volts. Pulse distortion is less than 3% with an input rise time of 20 seconds. Return loss is 20dB or greater.
