HD Video Processor Frame
HD Video Processor Frame Hardware Options
Table 23 lists the modules that may be purchased as options.
Emergency Bypass Option
The Emergency Bypass system provides basic switching capability should
a component in the Kalypso system fail or lose power. This option operates
with SD video signals and so does not support any HD video formats. This
option is appropriate for Kalypso Duo systems, and for Kalypso HD
systems only when operating in SD mode. See
Emergency Bypass on page 61
for more information about this option.
Video Processor Power Supply Frame
The Kalypso HD Video Processor Power Supply frame is rack-mountable,
occupying two rack units (
Figure 56 on page 51 ). It is separate from the
Video Processor frame and has its own cooling fans.
The power supply can contain up to three slide-in modules rated at 1000
watts each. Two power supply modules are required to run the system. An
optional third module may be added to provide redundant power. With
three modules installed, one module can fail without causing system
failure. Modules are hot-swappable and current sharing. It is recom-
mended that each module’s AC input be connected to a separate AC
supply circuit. Any module(s) for which a separate supply circuit is not
available should be connected to a UPS.
A blank module can be installed in the empty slot when the power supply
frame is not fully populated with three power modules. Every Kalypso
power supply is shipped with one blank power module for this purpose,
regardless of whether two or three power modules are ordered.
An included 1 m (3.28 ft) interconnecting DC power cable allows the Video
Processor Power Supply frame to be installed either above or below the
Video Processor frame. All power connections are located at the rear of the
Video Processor Power Supply frame (
Figure 57 on page 52 ).
