Managing Kaleido-X Systems
Key Concepts
Kaleido-X16 The Kaleido-X16 is a compact, ultra-quiet multiviewer in a 1RU frame,
with 16 inputs and two outputs. It provides a subset of the features of
the Kaleido-X 4RU and 7RU models. There are two types of Kaleido-X16:
Kaleido-X16-S (single head) and Kaleido-X16-D (dual head).
KMV-3901/3911 The KMV-3901, the first member of the Kaleido-Modular series, is a
multiviewer on a single Densité card, with eight inputs and two outputs.
Designed to address production-type applications, it supports a subset
of the features offered by the other Kaleido-X series multiviewer models:
• Processing: Video scaling, Video cropping, 3Gbps (level A only)
support, KXI-DVI-Bridge support.
• Probing: Display of audio levels (up to 16 audio signals per head), time
codes (based on URS signal from a REF-1801 Densité card, or on
embedded reference signal), video format and audio format.
• GPIO interface: Support for 8 GPI inputs and 2 GPI outputs.
In addition to the features listed above, the KMV-3911 multiviewer
supports up to two HD-SDI monitoring outputs. In XEdit, all
KMV-3901/3911 models, with any number of inputs and outputs are
identified as Kaleido-Modular. In XAdmin they are identified as Kaleido-
Modular KMV-3911, or Kaleido-Modular KMV-3901.
Kaleido-IP The Kaleido-IP can monitor and display HD and SD television programs
distributed over IP, across two HDTV displays. It supports MPEG-2 and
H.264/AVC compressed video, and the AAC, AC-3, DD+, MPEG-1, MPEG-
2, MPEG-4 AAC LC, and MPEG-4 HE-AAC compressed audio formats,
within unencrypted DCII, DVB, or ATSC streams. The Kaleido-IP X310
supports concurrent decoding of up to 64 MPEG-2 or up to 32 H.264 HD
video programs. In the case of SD signals, they support concurrent
decoding of up to 128 MPEG-2 or up to 64 H.264 programs. The
Kaleido-IP X110 supports concurrent decoding of up to 16 MPEG-2 or up
to 12 H.264 HD programs, and up to 48 MPEG-2 or up to 24 H.264 SD
programs. The Kaleido-IP X300 supports concurrent decoding of up to
24 MPEG-2 or up to 16 H.264 HD programs, and up to 64 MPEG-2 or up
to 32 H.264 SD programs. The Kaleido-IP X100 supports concurrent
decoding of up to 8 MPEG-2 or up to 6 H.264 HD programs, and up to
24 MPEG-2 or up to 12 H.264 SD programs. In XAdmin and XEdit, a
Kaleido-IP X100 or Kaleido-IP X300 with two network adapters is
identified as Kaleido-IP-2. A Kaleido-IP X110, Kaleido-IP X310, or
Kaleido-IP X300 with four network adapters is identified as Kaleido-IP-4,
and a Kaleido-IP X310, or Kaleido-IP X300 with six network adapters is
identified as Kaleido-IP-6.
