Kaleido-Modular-X
Hardware Description & Installation Manual
by a rear panel (KMX-3901-OUT-D-3DRP, or KMX-3901-OUT-D-3+SRP) that holds all input
and output connectors associated with the card.
In Kaleido-Modular-X systems with two cards, one card is considered the
master
card, and
the others is the
slave
card. If the master card is removed, the other output card will take on
the master role automatically.
An output card is connected to the other cards in the Kaleido-Modular-X system to which it
belongs through the housing frame’s internal midplane (for cards housed in the same
frame), in addition to Ethernet, and FlexBridge connections.
External connections to an output card are made through connectors that are found in two
locations:
• on the rear panel (see
KMX-3901-OUT-D-3DRP rear panel connections
, below, and
KMX-3901-OUT-D-3+SRP rear panel connections
• on the front card edge (see
KMX-3901-OUT front card-edge USB connector
KMX-3901-OUT-D-3DRP rear panel connections
The KMX-3901-OUT-D-3DRP rear-panel covers 2 slots, and its layout includes 2 HDMI
outputs, 2 HD-SDI monitoring outputs, 2 analog audio outputs, 1 Ethernet connector, 1 RS-
422 connector, 2 FlexBridge inputs, and 2 SFP cages. In the case of the HDMI outputs,
HD-SDI monitoring outputs, and analog audio outputs, in each pair, the output associated
with the second head is
NOT
enabled if your output card is the single-head model (KMX-
3901-OUT-S). A software option is available to enable the second head.

Output cards with a single rear connector panel (
KMX-3901-OUT-D-
3+SRP
) are compatible with Densité 3+ FR1, and Densité 3+ FR4 only.
