Trinix Fiber Boards Installation
If you purchased the Trinix Fiber option with a Trinix Routing switcher, the
boards will be installed at the factory. You will only need to install the boards
on-site if they are to be used in an existing routing switcher, or used as a
replacement board.
Installing the three fiber boards requires that you remove the standard BNC
rear panel and coax Input or Output boards, if they are present. The Input or
Output boards will then be plugged in from the front of the Trinix chassis.
The three fiber boards and the SFPs are sensitive to ESD. Use static handling
precautions when installing or removing the sub-module. See
ESD Protection
on page 27 for more information.
Grass Valley recommends that you install the boards in the lowest slot
number first. For example, if you had three the Fiber boards, they should be
installed in slots 1-3.
If you are using a Trinix Multiviewer (TMV), install the Fiber boards in slots
after the TMV. The required Output slots for the TMV are listed in
Table 106 .
The recommended Output slot for the Fiber board are also provided.
The TMV board may be placed in any Output slot for the 128x256 and the
512x1024 Trinix Routing switcher. See the
Trinix Multiviewer Installation and
Service manual for more information about the TMV boards.
