Rear of the Kaleido-MX 4K 16 × 1 frame

The rear of the Kaleido-MX 4K (1RU) frame is organized in three sections, matching the
front.

Viewed from the back of the frame, the three sections are laid out as follows:

Kaleido-MX 4K systems with 16 inputs share the same rear-panel as the Kaleido-MX 16 × 4
multiviewer model, including 16 input connectors, 4 HD-SDI monitoring outputs, 1 SDTI
audio input, 1 LTC input, 1 reference input, 2 Ethernet connectors, 1 RS-422 connector,
20 GPI inputs, and 8 configurable GPI input/output.

Note:

The Kaleido-MX 4K (1RU) offers a wide variety of ports for incoming

and outgoing signals. With a view towards future expansion, there are ports
whose connections exist but that are currently not fully supported. The
FlexBridge IN ports are reserved for future expansion, and the SFP ports are
not yet supported.

Notes

• Do not use the 4 HDMI outputs with this system configuration. A seamless

4K UHD output is only supported at the SDI OUT connectors.
