DiGiCo has developed the Remote Rack PSU (RR-PSU) for its SD range of digital mixing consoles.
This comprises two modules – one with a single multi-pin connector, the other a 3U-high rackmount unit with a corresponding multi-pin connector and two power supply sockets. These modules are connected via a 5m cable which allows the power supply to sit in a remote location, removing fan noise from the level-sensitive area.
The RR-PSU can also be used in conjunction with the SD11, with the additional benefit of turning the SD11 into a redundant PSU system.
‘Under normal circumstances, the PSU fan noise produced by our consoles is insignificant,’ says DiGiCo MD, James Gordon, ‘but in some level sensitive theatres and halls we wanted to take our console to a further stage of quiet.
The RR-PSU is another addition to our ancillary range of equipment that makes this possible with our SD consoles. Combine it with an SD11 and you have the makings of an amazing little broadcast console.’
The DiGiCo RR-PSU can be used with SD8, SD9, SD10 and SD11 consoles.
