Continuum DVP eXtra Dense QAM Array Housing
General
The Continuum DVP Extra Dense QAM Array housing is a compact, modular 1RU
high 19-inch housing provided with a system controller/input board, which controls
the Dual QAM Cards in the housing. This system controller/input board is
equipped with an integrated network interface for system management and control.
This board is provided with 4 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports, viz.: 2 optical and 2
electrical ports. The electrical ports are equipped with RJ-45 type connectors and the
optical GbE ports can be configured with SFP type laser module.
The fans mounted at the back of the device and in the PSU modules create an
optimal airflow inside the housing by which the Continuum DVP XDQA system
does not require an open rack space above nor underneath.
The following illustration is a front view of an empty Continuum DVP XDQA
