Rear I/O Modules
Note:
Various Rear I/O Modules for Cobalt
®
cards are available and described in
respective product information for the cards. Rear I/O Modules are not
supplied with the BBG-1300-FR.
(See Figure 1-3.) Cards within BBG-1300-FR physically interface to system
video and audio connections using a Rear I/O Module. All signal inputs and
outputs enter and exit the card via the card edge backplane connector. The
Rear I/O Module breaks out the card edge connections to industry standard
connections that interface with other components and systems in the signal
chain.
In this manner, the particular inputs and outputs required for a particular
application can be accommodated using a Rear I/O Module that best suits the
requirements. The required input and outputs are broken out to the industry
standard connectors on the module.
The BBG-1300-FR supports a Standard-Width rear module which serves one
card, or a Split rear module that will support two cards. (The rear module,
when fitted to BBG-1300-FR, is rotated (as compared to typical frame rear
module fitment) to positioning shown in Figure 1-3.)
Figure 1-3 Rear Module Types Compatible with BBG-1300-FR
Standard-Width Rear I/O Module
Standard-Width Rear Modules can offer a variety of connection types – all on the same
module – including BNC, 3-wire removable Phoenix, and other connector types.
Split Rear I/O Module
Split Rear I/O Modules accommodate 2 cards per module (as opposed to a single card
per module). Split rear modules are identified by "S" in the part number (for example,
"RM20-9902-A/S").
Note: Utilization of BBG-1300-FR as a two-card device requires Split Rear I/O Module
usage. Split rear modules are not available for all cards.
