This topic lists the part numbers for .edge. You will need these to specify a new system, expand an existing system (via hardware or software) or order replacement parts.

When specifying a new system, please use the following steps:

  1. Choose a frame variant - to order a frame with either AC or DC power supplies and a rack-mounting kit. 
  2. Add up to 4 x .edge_gateway - to populate the frame. Each .edge_gateway includes 1 x processing blade + 1 x rear I/O plate + 1 x .edge_sdi_inc software license (for 16 x SDI I/Os).
  3. Add the required software licenses - to unlock more resources (on each processing blade).
  4. Don't forget to add optical transceivers - to use the network ports (on each blade).

Alternatively, you can choose one of the hardware and software bundles to order a complete multi-frame package.

To expand a partially-fitted frame, use .edge_gateway (to include the processing blade, rear I/O plate and 1 x SDI license).

To order a replacement part, see spare parts.

Frame Variants

The frame variants specify the type of power supplies and rack-mounting kit. The frame comes with four empty slots, front and rear. The processing blade(s) and rear I/O plate(s) must be ordered separately using .edge gateway.
