2RU Frame
The OG3-FR is a 2RU modular frame, designed to accommodate up to 20 cards from the openGear family.
Common Frame Features
Two looping reference inputs are buffered and distributed to all module slots. A frame mounted Ethernet port allows a network control module to be added without occupying a module slot. PowerLock cord retainers guard against accidental power loss.
Modular Rear I/O Modules
Separate rear I/O modules are ordered with card modules offering a mix of BNC, fiber optic and other connections as required. These rear modules are quick and easy to install.
SNMP
openGear supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) offering an industry standard interface for system wide monitoring applications. SNMP is loaded direct to the frame eliminating the need for any external gateways and runs on a separate software port allowing for simultaneous control from both DashBoard and SNMP clients. This is useful in applications where system wide monitoring is performed using SNMP and real-time control is performed using DashBoard.
DataSafe
DataSafe dramatically reduces downtime when failed modules are swapped out. All module parameters are stored on the local frame network card and automatically restored when a hot-swap is performed. With some cards reaching well over 100 parameters, including audio channel delays and video proc level, DataSafe ensures a proper reconfiguration of replacement cards without the hassle of trying to remember previous settings. DataSafe can be enabled or disabled on a per slot basis through the frame's network controller card. DataSafe's intelligent design will only restore parameters when it detects a compatible replacement product. DataSafe is only available with the advanced networking control option.
Modular Frame Architecture
The OG3-FR offers the flexibility of independent rear modules for connectivity to a wide array of interfaces such as BNC, twisted-pair audio and fiber. The independent rear modules are available in different I/O configurations for select cards, including high density split rear modules allowing up to 20 independent openGear cards in the OG3 frame.
Robust Power Supplies
The OG3-FR can accommodate 2 front-loaded PS-OG3 power supplies. The split outside location of the power supplies makes installation a breeze when utilizing an alternate phase power source. A single 450 watt supply can fully power a loaded frame and the addition of a second (optional) supply gives the frame full power redundancy. Each power supply contains an independent cooling fan, status LED and a front mounted power switch.
Cooling
The OG3-FR frame has been designed with an advanced cooling architecture with increased ventilation. Front door mounted cooling fans provide forced air cooling to all cards with front to back airflow. An intelligent fan controller adjusts fan speed with changes in power supply loading and temperature. The front door assembly can be removed without tools for quick and easy maintenance.
Control
The OG3-FR comes standard with Ethernet connectivity for basic configuration and monitoring of openGear cards through the DashBoard control system. An optional advanced networking card, the MFC-0G3-N, adds an on-board Gigabit Ethernet switch, with GigE access to each of the 20 processing card slots. The advanced networking control also allows multiple DashBoard connections and adds advanced features such as DataSafe and optional SNMP.
