OPERATION
THE ECLIPSE OMEGA MATRIX AND CIRCUIT
CARDS
The Eclipse Omega matrix chassis houses the circuit cards, power
supplies, and connectors that form the central hardware of the system.
Measuring 19-inches wide and 6 rack units high (48.3 cm x 26.9 cm),
the matrix chassis installs in a standard equipment rack.
Various types of Eclipse Omega circuit cards perform unique
functions. System cards control overall system operation, analog
interfaces control the operation of connected panels and interfaces
and communications interfaces allow communication with wireless
equipment, fiber optic links and IP networks.
Two Euro Cassette power supplies provide fail-safe redundancy in the
event of a component failure or an AC circuit outage. Front-panel lights
give information about the condition of the power supplies, allowing the
system operator to take preventative corrective action.
Each MVX-A16 interface connects to an individual panel on the back
of the Eclipse Omega matrix. This panel holds the RJ-45 sockets for
connecting to intercom panels and interface modules.
The Eclipse Omega matrix is completely modular, allowing cards,
power supplies, and connector panels to be added or removed to meet
operational needs.
