Clear-Com HX System Frames - Manual (Page 31)

4.2.1 Installing the external power supplies
The Eclipse HX-Delta's power is provided by two external 12V power supply units (for
redundancy). The power supplies have separate connections to the rear of the matrix (see
Figure 3 Eclipse HX-Delta rear panel ).
Each of the power supplies must be connected to a dedicated branch of AC mains power.
The matrix will continue to operate even if one of the power supply units fails.
When the matrix is installed to the rack, connect the power cables from the external power
supplies to the power connectors on the rear of the matrix.
The power cables connecting the supplies to the matrix can be up to 1.5m in length, and are
capable of sustaining a pull test of 10 Newton’s. The power cables are secured to the matrix
by latching connectors.
When the matrix is connected to the power supplies, connect the power supplies to AC
mains power.
A fully equipped Eclipse HX-Delta matrix (2 CPU cards, 4 interface cards and 3 interface
modules)
requires 100 - 240 VAC at 50 - 60 Hz with a maximum dissipation of 175W.
4.2.2 Installing the rear panels
The rear panel of the matrix is constructed of modular, individually-installable connector
panels. Each port or expansion card has a corresponding rear-connector panel:
• An MVX-A16 rear panel has 16 RJ-45 connectors.
• E-FIB rear panels have two fiber connectors.
• E-QUE, IVC-32 and LMC-64 rear panels have 11 RJ-45 connectors.
• E-MADI64 rear cards have a MADI fiber connector, MADI input and output coaxial
cable connectors, and a coaxial Video / Word clock input.
Note:
Clear-Com ships each matrix with the required number of rear-connector panels already
installed. Blank rear panels fill unused card slots.
To add a rear panel to the matrix:
1. Remove the desired blank rear panel by loosening the screws and pulling the panel
out. The screws are attached and cannot be removed.
2. Install the new rear panel by sliding the card into the card’s guides at the top and
bottom of the Eclipse HX-Delta chassis.
3. Tighten all of the screws on the rear panel.
