The SFR04 is the generic module holders
for the Synapse system. The SFR04 is a 1 RU frame with 4 card slots, the SFR08
is a 2 RU frame with 8 slots, and the SFR18 is our most dense frame with 18
slots in 4 RU. These frames incorporate several unique functions that stand out
from the conventional frames found in most other card-based infrastructure
products.

Technical Details |
Robust design
Central gunlock input(s) for all cards that require a
reference
2 inputs on the SFR08 and SFR18, one for the
SFR04
Ethernet connection for remote control, setup and
maintenance
Easy, hot-swappable fans in the SFR08 and the SFR18
Auto input range power supply (redundant for SFR08 and
SFR18)
Full control of all card and frame parameters through the intuitive interface on the inside of the front panel and via ACP (Axon Control
Protocol) for remote monitoring and control software (like Cortex and
Cerebrum)
Internal Synapse ADD-ON daisy chain bus for audio, GPI and multitier
applications
Separate rack controller slot which doesn’t take up a card
slot
Top fan status for SFR18
These frames, together with the rack controllers and power
supplies form the base of the Synapse system. All frames contain the unique
ADD-ON daisy chain bus. It enables you to embed audio and even video from one
card to the other from within the frame (instead of external physical wires).
The bus is a central (passive) interface between the power supply, the front
panel control and the cards. Beside the ADD-ON bus there is also an internal
bus which distributes reference, power and control/monitoring data to al
cards.
To visualize this, the following graphic is made which
displays the functionality of the internal Synapse.
