Summary
The M3 output card is functionally equivalent to the standard output card but is designed to
operate with M3 backplane modules. The M3 backplane module is one that has a 16-terminal
M3 connector.
The M3 connector is presently used to make connections from NV8500 hybrid routers to Kaleido
multi-viewers that have M3 connectors.
There is no M3 input card. In the future, other Grass Valley products will incorporate M3 connec-
tors. At that time, the NV8500 routers might include M3 input cards.
The M3 output card has 18 video channels, of which 2
—
the 9th and 18th
—
use coax
connectors.
The M3 backplane module supports the 18 channels in a unique way.
M3 Backplane Module
The M3 backplane module has one large M3 connector and two coax connectors. The M3
connector supports 16 of the video channels of the M3 card and the two coax connectors
support the other 2 channels.
When the backplane is installed in the lower output bays of an NV8576 frame, it is upside down
and its port ordering differs from when the backplane is installed in the upper bays (right side
up) of an NV8576 frame.
When the M3 backplane module is installed in an NV8140, NV8144, or an NV8280, it is consid-
ered right side up.
