The Densité 3+ FR4 Frame
Overview - Frame
The 4 RU Densite 3+ FR4 Frame from Grass Valley, a Belden Brand, is a modular frame and
controller designed to deliver more power per slot and higher speed connectivity needed by
the increased feature set of the latest Densité products. The Densité 3+ FR4 frame offers true
multiformat operation, with the ability to process simultaneously SDI and IP 4K, 3G, HD, SD, and
analog video, as well as AES and analog audio. The frame provides advanced monitoring and
back-up capabilities along with a color LCD panel with integrated touchscreen for ease of status
and control navigation on the front panel.
The front-opening frame features dual hot-swappable power supplies (PSUs) and fans. The
processing modules or cards for the frame are also hot-swappable, and can be configured auto-
matically when a card is replaced. The frame is front-to-back air-cooled and all modules,
redundant PSUs and fans are monitored to provide status via GPI or the Ethernet port. The basic
frame configuration includes one PSU and a controller that allows card parameters to be
adjusted from the front panel.
