2: System Setup
The card supports the following audio I/O types:
• AES/EBU
• Embedded
• Analog
The audio and video connections to the card are made through the rear panel of the SGI
Media Server. The panel and connections are described in the following subsections.
The MSB-REARPANEL-B Rear Panel
The MSB-REARPANEL-B provides the physical audio and video connections to the
SGI Media Server. A rackmounted unit supports up to two video/audio cards
(channels) in the server. Each rear panel has two sets of video and audio connectors—
one set for each of two audio/video cards (PCI-VIDAUD-MSB-B). Figure 2-1 shows the
left-half, front view of the rear panel and shows all but one SDI video connector. The
right half of the rear panel is identical to the left half with matching connectors and
labeling conventions.
Note: The rackmounted rear panel requires a 19-inch connector break-out-box.
