Blackmagic Design BMD-OGX-FR-CNS-P openGear Frame w/ Cooling, Advanced Networking & SNMP

$0.00

The Blackmagic Design OGX-FR-CNS-P is an oGx open gear frame with cooling, advanced networking, and SNMP. The oGx is a 2RU high-density openGear® modular frame offering 600 Watts of total power in a high-capacity 20-slot format. It uses the same form factor and DashBoardT remote control as Blackmagic Design's other 20-slot frames and supports all openGear compatible cards and rear I/O modules, but offers significantly more available user power. The oGx is designed to meet the demands of today's most complex IP and hybrid infrastructures, supporting evolving IP and UHD applications.

A new high-power mode allows 23 Watts per slot (460 W user net max). An intelligent fan controller adjusts fan speed with changes in power supply loading and temperature. The single (standard) 600 Watt power supply can fully power a loaded frame, and the addition of a second (optional) supply gives the frame full power redundancy. oGx accommodates 2 front-loaded, hot-swappable power supplies. The split outside location of the power supplies makes installation easy. Each power supply contains an independent cooling fan, status LED, and a front mounted power switch.

In addition to an integrated LCD display that provides frame name, IP address and reports any alarms, the FrameGlow highly-visible programmable RGB LED bar provides "across-the-room" visibilty of any customizable status or frame ID functions, allowing personnel to see frame status/info literally anywhere in the room.

The openGear® 3.0 frame offers optional gigabit Ethernet to every slot within the frame chassis, enhancing communication speed, and connection options to all openGear® cards. The openGear® 3.0 frame provides more communication options and flexibility to openGear® card manufacturers. The 21-port Ethernet switch, built in to the frame's network control card, virtually future-proofs the openGear® 3.0 platform. (Gigabit Ethernet is only available with the Advanced Network Control option.) SNMP (optionally available) is loaded direct to the frame eliminating the need for any external gateways and runs on a separate software port allowing for simultaneous control from both DashBoard and SNMP clients. This is useful in applications where system wide monitoring is performed using SNMP and real-time control is performed using DashBoard.

The oGx 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 oGx. These rear modules offer a broad selection for a flexible and wide array of interfaces such as coaxial, twisted-pair audio, GPIO, comm, and fiber. Special high-density/high-ventilation rear I/O modules offer even greater packaging density when used with compatible Blackmagic Design® cards.

About the Blackmagic Design BMD-OGX-FR-CNS-P openGear Frame w/ Cooling, Advanced Networking & SNMP

The Blackmagic Design openGear Frame with Cooling, Advanced Networking & SNMP is a comprehensive, intelligent chassis system engineered to serve as the central hub for professional broadcast signal processing in an IP-managed facility. This frame integrates high-density modular card housing, active cooling for thermal stability, and a sophisticated networking controller with full SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support into a single 2RU rack unit. It is designed to house a configurable array of openGear-compatible cards—such as SDI converters, distribution amplifiers, audio embedders, and sync generators—while providing the tools to monitor, control, and manage the entire assembly as an intelligent network device. The integrated cooling system ensures reliable, 24/7 operation by actively dissipating heat from the installed processing cards, which is critical for maintaining signal integrity and equipment longevity.

The advanced networking controller with SNMP is the cornerstone of this frame's management capabilities. It provides a web-based interface for configuration and offers full SNMP agent functionality, allowing the frame and its individual cards to be seamlessly integrated into a facility-wide network management system (NMS). This enables broadcast engineers to remotely monitor real-time parameters such as internal temperature, fan speeds, power supply status, and the operational health of each card. More importantly, it can generate SNMP traps (alerts) that are sent to a central monitoring console if any parameter falls outside normal ranges, enabling proactive, automated fault detection and rapid response to potential issues before they affect on-air operations.

Constructed with a robust steel chassis, the frame features tool-less card guides for easy installation and maintenance. The centralized, high-capacity power supply eliminates the clutter and point-of-failure risks associated with individual power adapters. By combining signal processing, power, cooling, and enterprise-grade network management in one scalable unit, this openGear frame transforms a collection of discrete devices into a cohesive, software-defined broadcast node. It is an ideal solution for modern broadcast centers, outside broadcast trucks, and any operation seeking to build a reliable, remotely manageable, and future-proof signal infrastructure that aligns with IP-based and software-defined broadcasting principles.
