BC100
Modular 3RU Rack Mounting System
Description
Modular 3RU Rack Mounting System The BC Series is a cost effective and flexible modular system designed to accommodate the growing number of broadcast signals that need to be transported over fibre optic cable. With nearly 100 cards in the range, all standard video, audio and data formats can be accommodated with alarm and monitoring via GPI or Ethernet/SNMP. From a simple point to point link or a complex optical infrastructure the BC Series combines the lowest cost of ownership, full broadcast specifications and robust energy efficient designs. Multiple signals can be electrically multiplexed together as a single wavelength and up to 16 wavelengths can then be multiplexed onto a single fibre using CWDM. Optical splitters and switches provide redundancy for mission critical situations. Our equipment supports 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, DVB-ASI Broadcast Quality PAL/NTSC AES/EBU and analogue audio 10/100/1000 BaseT Ethernet Data and RF The BC100 is a 19†3RU chassis for Bluebell BC Series cards. Each frame can hold up to 15 single slot cards. Redundant PS65 power supplies are available as is the option for a 48V dc power input. Signal and card monitoring is achieved through SNMP monitoring in the BM102 network card. The BM102 network card monitors the status of signals and power supplies within the frame. The Ethernet port allows a third party SNMP management system to receive signal and power supply failure alarms. The card is fitted into Slot 16 of the BC100 frame.
