Installing Interface cards
Installing a Universal Videohub SDI Interface or Universal Videohub Optical Interface is easy
and the steps are the same for installing each type of interface card.
1 Hold the card in a vertical orientation with the identification LED at the top of the card.
The identification LED looks like a pin hole near the top left of the top connector.
2 Gently insert the card along its guides until it plugs firmly into the PCI slot on the
motherboard.
3 Use a number 02 size Pozidriv screwdriver to secure the card to the Universal
Videohub frame.
See the ‘SDI Interface Card’ and ‘Universal Videohub Interface Cards’ sections for more
information on the different interface cards available for your Universal Videohub.
Installing a Universal Videohub Power Supply
The Universal Videohub Power Supply package consists of a power card, a power cable and
a 1 RU chassis containing the power supply. A second Universal Videohub Power Supply can be
installed under the first power supply for failover redundancy. You will need to provide a
standard IEC cord with a C13 connector for each power supply.
1 Ensure that any new power supplies are disconnected from any electrical source.
Orient the power card so that the MAIN POWER label appears at the top of the card.
2 Insert the power card into either of the two power card slots.
