Introduction
Physical Concerns
Rack Mount Applications:
The Soloist 2 was designed to be rack mounted and requires only one rack unit
(1RU). It does NOT require blank spaces above or below to remain within it’s
designed operating temperatures. The Soloist 2 integrates a built in fan with side
panel discharge, make sure the side discharge has at least 1” of clear space to
allow for airflow.
Non Rack Mount Applications:
The Soloist 2 can be tabletop or desk mounted as it ships with four rubber feet to
prevent skid or slipping on Formica finishes. In this application, make sure that
no heavy objects (over 25 pounds) are placed on top of the unit as this may
cause damage to the drives.
Power Concerns
Power Supply:
The Soloist 2 ships with a six (6) foot standard SJT power cord with a three (3)
pin US type plug. A European 3 PIN cord with plug is available on PAL
versions. The unit incorporates a universal input switch mode power supply. It
carries the CE, UL, CSA and TUV safety certifications. Valid input ranges from
70 to 240 volts AC (VAC), 50 Hz or 60 Hz and uses between 20 and 65 watts
based on the number and type of hard drive(s) used.
Video Concerns
Video Connections:
The SOLOIST 2 uses video industry standard BNC connectors for video and
SYNC connections. YC is available via two BNC connectors or a 4-pin din
connector. In addition, a four (4) pin din connector and two BNC connectors are
supplied for Y/C video out.
