CXPS Manual Edition 1.08 Configuration 13
1, 2, 3, and 4, counting from the top of the card to the bottom. The card in slot number two
contains input channel numbers 5, 6, 7, and 8, and so on up to 36.
VIDEO OUTPUT OPTIONS
The CXPS can be configured with up to nine video output cards. Each card has four output
channels. By design, the video output card can accept either dual-link or single-link DVI.
However, the CXPS only supports dual-link DVI on cards installed in odd-numbered slots
(as discussed in “Dual-Link vs Single-Link” above).
Like the input channels, output channels are numbered from left to right and top to bottom,
so the card in output slot number one (the one immediately to the right of the switch fabric
card as you look at the back panel) contains output channel numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4, counting
from the top of the card to the bottom. The card in slot number two contains input channel
numbers 5, 6, 7, and 8, and so on up to 36.
Currently, there are four video output card options. All four options come with four output
channels. New options are under development; contact Black Diamond Video for more
information.
