If you have only partially populated your Universal Videohub 72 with interface cards, you might
be able to power it with a single 150W power supply and preferably use a second power supply
for failover redundancy. If you choose this option:
1 Temporarily disconnect the second power supply and then check the Power Overload
light on the crosspoint card after installing any cards.
2 If the Power Overload light illuminates, you will have to add a 150W brick power supply
or remove some cards to ensure that all cards are receiving power.
3 Reconnect the second power supply when you have finished checking the Power
Overload light.

Universal Videohub 450W Power Card can be
connected to three 150W power bricks.
For peace of mind, we recommend connecting and powering the three power supplies at all
times to ensure sufficient power, and power redundancy, with all card combinations.
If you need to remove or replace a 150W Power Supply while Universal Videohub 72 is still
running, power off the brick while being careful to avoid switching off power to the remaining
power supplies. Unplug the IEC cord and then unscrew and disconnect the power supply from
the Universal Videohub 450W Power Card.
Congratulations! Your Universal Videohub 72 is now ready to start routing video!
SDI Interface Card
SDI interface cards feature 4 SDI inputs, 4 SDI outputs and a connector for a Universal
Videohub Deck Control Cable. All SDI connections support auto detection of SD, HD or 3G-SDI,
and reclocking on all SDI outputs. Simultaneous routing of 2K, HD, SD video and DVB-ASI are
supported with Universal Videohub. SDI interface cards are designed to be installed while
Videohub is running and become active immediately. They do not require Videohub to be
power cycled. You will need a number 01 and a number 02 size Pozidriv screwdriver to install
the various cards.
There are two models of SDI interface cards that can be used with Universal Videohub:
Universal Videohub SDI Interface card with BNC connectors.
Universal Videohub Optical Interface card has standard SFP transceiver modules with
1310 nm laser drivers and receivers. Each module includes an LC connector port to be
used with single-mode optical fiber cables.
