2.1 Installation of Rear Connector Panels
Grass Valley Densité-series cards are each associated with a rear connector panel, which must be installed in the
Densité frame before the card can be inserted.
The ADX-1901 card is designed to fit into Grass Valley’s Densité-2 frame. Two different rear connector panels are
available for this configuration. Due to connector space requirements, a double-slot-width rear panel is necessary:
•
ADX-1901-DRP
Double-slot-width panel for Densité-2
•
ADX-1901-DRP-F
Double-slot-width panel for Densité-2 with fiber I/O
With a factory-installed adapter mounted on the ADX-1901 card, it can be installed in a Densité-3 frame. In this case,
only a single-slot-width panel is required. Two rear panels are available:
•
ADX-1901-3SRP
Single-slot-width panel for Densité-3
•
ADX-1901-3SRP-F
Single-slot-width panel for Densité-3 with fiber I/O
See
for details of the signal connections available on each of these panel types.
All cards and rear panels can be installed with the frame power on. The card has connectors which plug into a mid-
frame mother board for distribution of power and for connection to the controller card, and a second connector which
plugs directly into the rear connector panel for input and output.
The rear connector panel must be installed with the card out of the frame.
•
To remove an existing card from the slot, tilt up the swivel handle on the front of the card to lever the
connectors apart, then use the handle to pull the card straight out of the slot.
