The SSP-3801 is a playout server card that consists of two circuit boards assembled
together:
• The main board carries the bulk of the electronics with connectors that interface with
the SSP-3801 rear connector and Densité 3 frame mid-plane.
• The second board is a solid state drive (SSD) carrier board, which features up to two
SSDs for application and media storage.
