High-density openGear® compatible modular frame offering 600 watts of net (user) available power in a high-capacity 2RU 20-slot format.

The Cobalt® HPF-MAX is a 2RU high-density openGear® modular frame offering 600 watts of net (user) available power in a high-capacity 20-slot format. It uses the same form factor and DashBoard™ remote control as our other 20-slot frames and supports all openGear compatible cards and rear I/O modules. The HPF-MAX is perfectly suited for high-density utilization. High power-density power supplies (single standard, redundant second – optional) and engineered cooling/ventilation design allow 10 high-power cards in a frame (10 x 60W = 600 W), or 20 medium-power cards in a frame (20 x 30W = 600W). Separate forced-air cooling paths are provided for the card area and the power supply areas. An intelligent fan controller adjusts fan speed with changes in power supply loading and temperature.

The is a new 20-slot frame compatible with all openGear cards. It has 600W of available power, a built-in Gigabit Ethernet backplane, and intelligent power supplies.

The HPF-MAX-N uses the same rear I/O modules as our current 20-slot frames, allowing a seamless transition from a current 20-slot frame to the HPF-MAX-N. The HPF-MAX-N frame offers Gigabit Ethernet connection to all card slots with the included HPF-GE-FC network controller. The rear modules offer a broad selection for a flexible and wide array of interfaces such as BNC, HD-BNC, twisted-pair audio, and fiber optic. Special high-density/high-ventilation rear I/O modules offer even greater packaging density when used with compatible Cobalt Digital® cards. The HPF-MAX can accommodate two front-loaded PS-MAX power supply modules. Adding a second (optional) supply gives the frame full power redundancy.

9000-FSB

Support COBALT® 20-slot frames in mobile applications, such as trucks or equipment cases (fly packs).

9000-FSB-S: Short option for racks that are 18—26 inches deep. The 16.5-inch rail supports 1RU rear rack mounting for a COBALT® HPF-9000, HPF-9500, or HPF-MAX 20-Slot Frame.

9000-FSB-L: Long option for racks that are 26—32 inches deep. The 21.5-inch rail supports 1RU rear rack mounting for a COBALT ® HPF-9000, HPF-9500, or HPF-MAX 20-Slot Frame.

Note: Maximum cooling performance is obtained when a 1RU space is provided above the frame. Optional high-ventilation rear modules are available to increase airflow where above-frame cooling space is compromised.

Please contact Cobalt Digital Sales for more information regarding frame build-out where ventilation is less than optimal.
