The review model was the 'DP' version, with dual redundant power supplies (the standard model has a single mains power supply), and thus featured duplicated IEC mains inlets - making it ideal for broadcast applications or any role where fail-safe operation is required.Ī small blanking panel on the rear of the unit can be removed to allow installation of an 'option module' - the only current one adding a further four word-clock outputs.

In addition, there is a 15-pin D-Sub connector which, if the iC-Alarm option card is installed, delivers remote alarm signals in case of system failure.

There are then four video sync outputs, eight word-clock outputs, four AES outputs, and two S/PDIF outputs (all configurable in pairs). The rear panel carries an impressive collection of interfacing, starting with three external clock inputs: two 'universal' inputs on BNCs, plus an AES input on an XLR. Eight status LEDs highlight critical operational conditions, and four cursor keys are provided to navigate the configuration menus. The 1U rackmounting unit's dark-blue front panel is mostly given over to a large backlit display - the lighting can be set to turn off after a period of control inactivity.
#Iclock model 2500 generator#
The Mutec iClock is an astonishingly flexible and very sophisticated master clock generator that delivers both video and digital audio clocks, synchronising to external references and generating an unlimited combination of different clock rates simultaneously. This new master clock generator from Mutec can transmit a bewildering array of clock signals at many different rates simultaneously.
