KAYENNE — Installation Planning Guide 11
Kayenne Control Surfaces
The modular design and use of a separate PCU supports the hot-replace-
ment of individual Control Panel components, if necessary, while the rest
of the system remains operational.
Multiple Suites and Control Surfaces
A Kayenne system can be subdivided into two suites, if desired, each of
which can have two control surfaces. Hardware resources in the Video Pro-
cessor Frame can be assigned to an individual suite during configuration,
essentially creating two separate switchers from one Kayenne system. A
Kayenne PCU can support two control surfaces using its eight available
ports.
Flat or Curved Control Panel Orientation
The main Kayenne Control Panel supports different physical orientations.
Besides a conventional flat surface, a special support design permits a
curved working surface, where the MEs progressively tilt for improved
ergonomics (
Figure 6 ).
