Output modules
Six output modules, each consisting of four RF channels can be installed in a headend unit. Hot Flash technology is used in the headend, meaning that
output modules can be inserted/removed/moved while the headend is running.
Output module types
Each output module is identified through use of a specifically coloured label. The label also indicates the module type’s name and associated item
number. The remainder of the label is used for noting post-installation module information.
Another label containing a barcode and serial number is located on the underside of the output module.
