Chapter 2: Installation
Introduction
KUMO SDI routers are easy to set up and use. All of the steps for KUMO installation and
configuration are documented in this chapter, summarized as follows:
1. Install the chassis in an appropriate rack. If you are mounting multiple KUMO units,
try to place them visually in the same area so if you communicate with them via a
network attached computer, you can use the KUMO’s Identify feature to flash the
corresponding LED of the unit you’re communicating with. Ensure you have an
Ethernet cable routed to where the KUMO will be placed.
2. Assemble the Ethernet network connections to a closed network or LAN using Cat.5
Ethernet cable and any required switches and hubs.
3. Connect the KUMO to power, connecting the power cord to mains AC.
4. If necessary, configure device network settings for operation in your facility.
5. Cable the system SDI video source and destination equipment and reference signals.
6. If operating with or 4K signals, select the appropriate KUMO operating mode...

supplies, connect the KUMO dual power supplies to separate branch circuits.
