RX1 back Panel

1. Dual Common Interface
2. Quad Satellite input
3. ASI output
4. 1 GbE – eth0 for management
5. Quad 1 GbE output – eth2 for multicast
6. Power input

NOTE : The back panel components are SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) components.
CAUTION : CAMs supplied with the RX1 must be kept with the unit they were supplied with. Do not swap CAMs between RX1 units. The CAMs are labeled with the serial number of the RX1 they belong with. To keep the CAMs with the RX1, we recommend plugging the CAMs into the CI slots soon after unboxing the RX1. Where two CAMs are supplied, it does not matter which CI slot each CAM is fitted in. Always unplug CAMs from the RX1 unit when it transported. Leaving a CAM in a CI slot risks damage to the CAM or the RX1 CI slots.
