Description

The BM102 is an intelligent monitoring plug-in module from Bluebell Opticom, designed to provide real-time status and diagnostics for BC Series cards installed in the BC100 (3RU) and BC160 (1RU) modular frames. The BM102 monitors power supplies, fan status, frame temperature, enhanced diagnostics for all BC cards, including detailed reporting of card model, serial number, firmware/hardware revisions, and SFP status such as optical power, temperature, and voltage, ideal for more advanced monitoring needs..

Via an RJ45 Ethernet port, the module supports SNMP for integration into network management systems, and offer built-in web interfaces for convenient browser-based monitoring.

Whether used in OB trucks, studios, or fixed installations, the BM102 help simplify maintenance and provide peace of mind in critical signal transport environment.
