AC Power Connection
An IEC universal power inlet is provided. This accepts an AC input from 95v up through 240v, at either 50 or 60 Hz.
Backup Power Connection
A 12VDC power connector is provided for a redundant, or back-up, power supply.
Network Connections
Two 100BT Ethernet ports are provided. They are configurable as either mirroring redundant ports or as a single
L port and separate management port.
To be precise, the mode of the Ethernet ports when configured as redundant ports is called “active-passive Ethernet
port bonding”. In active-passive mode, only one port is used, and the other one is a fail-over backup.
SDI Input
Two autosensing SD/HD-SDI input connectors are included on the SDI xNode.
All 16-channels of an SDI stream are available for de-embedding, embedding, and pair shuffling.
SDI Output
Two SD/HD-SDI output connections are included on the rear of the SDI xNode. All 16 audio channels in the SDI
stream are available for embedding and pair shuffling.
Installation and Mounting
Installation
The xNode is a fanless device, so it may be located in a control room or other location where fan noise cannot
be tolerated. Because this unit is passively cooled, it is recommended to leave an empty space above the unit
when mounted in a rack or other enclosure. An internal thermal sensor is designed in to the product, so that the
operating temperature of the xNode may be monitored remotely
Mounting
The SDI xNode includes a rack mounting kit. The mounting hole location and pattern is consistent with all
xNodes, so any xNode may be mounted using the available kit, and two of them may be mounted side by side.
