MediorNet is based on a modular concept, which allows the frame to be configured to the customer’s requirements. The frame can be filled with various Media and Link cards, according to the specific application.

Each mainframe provides:
• 1x slot for the processing card
• 6x high-speed card slots (four with a 2x 4.25 GBit/s and two with a 4x 4.25 GBit/s connection to the backplane, designed for high data rate signals such as video signals or CWDM link cards)
• 2x low-speed card slots (each one with 2x 125 MBit/s connection to the backplane, designed for low data rate signals such as audio signals)

All modules and cards are hot-swappable. Redundant power-supplies guarantee maximum reliability. The optimized cooling concept of MediorNet results in a very low-noise system. The horizontal air-flow within the device allows for effective cooling without the need for additional rack-space below or above the MediorNet mainframe.

MediorNet frames can be rack-mounted in various positions, e.g. with all connectors on the front or on the rear side, or recessed to allow cabling from the front but without connectors or cables exceeding the rack’s dimensions. The IEC connectors can be located front or rear independently from the other cabling.

The MediorNet Fan Module contains three temperature-controlled, low-noise, slow-spinning fans ensuring a steady horizontal air stream through the mainframe.

The MediorNet MN-PSUF Power-Supply Module provides an IEC connector on the front of the mainframe (MN-PSUR: on the rear) and is prepared for a wide input range, from 90 to 264 V AC and a frequency range from 47 to 63 Hz. The power-supply provides 150 W output and is hot-swappable.
