Overview
The DFR-8110A(-C) Digital Products Frame accommodates up to ten Ross 8000 series
Distribution Products or ten Leitch® 6800 series video products. For high power consumption
requirements, the DFR-8110A can be field upgraded with the CFM-8110A Cooling Fan Module,
which is mounted on the inside of the door. Alternatively, the DFR-8110A-C version comes direct
from the factory with the cooling fan option already installed. The DFR-8110A(-C) design offers
several key features such as; heavy-duty door hinges, durable powder-coat paint finish, and a
specially designed top cover to enable frame stacking in high density environments.
The DFR-8110A(-C) carries forward the heritage of our past digital frames by featuring our
unique Master Reference Input, which accepts one external analog color black signal that is
distributed to all modules. The frame also employs rugged aluminum construction, which
provides superb heat dissipation, as well as the use of the highest quality connectors throughout
the product.
The PS-8102 universal power supply is a power factor corrected supply that will accommodate
all world standards (100-240 volts) with up to 80 Watts of module power. Of special note is that
the PS-8102 has the ability to sustain a 100ms input voltage loss, or glitch, while maintaining a
full power output. This is of great importance in areas where incoming power may not be clean.
