Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection
Electrostatic discharge occurs when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in
intermittent failure or complete damage adversely affecting an electrical circuit. When you remove and
replace any card from a frame always follow ESD-prevention procedures:
•Ensure that the frame is electrically connected to earth ground through the power cord or any other means if
available.
•Wear an ESD wrist strap ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the grounding clip to an unpainted
surface of the chassis frame to safely ground unwanted ESD voltages. If no wrist strap is available, ground
yourself by touching the unpainted metal part of the chassis.
•For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and
10 megohms.
•When temporarily storing a card make sure it is placed in an ESD bag.
•Cards in an earth grounded metal frame or casing do not require any special ESD protection.

1 IPG-3901 High Density SDI/IP Gateway for Densité 3 Platform
1.1 Introduction
The Densité IP Gateway (IPG-3901) plug-and-play modules seamlessly bridge hybrid SDI/IP production
environments. As broadcasters migrate to IP-based transport, these space-saving, low-power cards are easily added
to existing Densité signal processing platforms, converting real-time, uncompressed, baseband video using SMPTE
2022-6 protocol for distribution over 10 GigE networks, and vice versa.
The gateways support any mix of 3G/HD/SD-SDI production workflows over IP networks. With bidirectional I/O in
combinations of 5 in/6 out or 6 in/5 out, the cards offer full redundancy in either unicast or multicast workflows to
ensure uninterrupted service.
Based on the proven Densité modular framework of over 100 functional cards, the flexible, space-efficient IPG-3901
cards accommodate a gradual adoption of IP production elements into broadcasting workflows, while protecting
operational methods and investment in installed equipment. With flexibility to configure up to 6 IPG-3901 modules per
Densité 3 frame and with each IPG-3901 module carrying 11 HD or 6 3G gateways, the Densité 3 platform scales to a
density of 66 HD or 36 3G gateways in a 3 RU frame. In the new Densité 3+ FR4 frame, up to12 IPG-3901 modules
can be installed giving a density of 132 HD or 72 3G gateways in a 4 RU frame. This means space- and cost-efficient
scaling – today and tomorrow.
The Densité IP Gateway can be controlled by the advanced GV Convergent SDN platform, offering unified control
across COTS IP switches and SDI routing/processing infrastructures, as well as by the proven iControl systems.
1.2 Features

2 Installation
2.1 Installation of Rear Connector Panels
Grass Valley Densité-series cards are each associated with a rear connector panel, which must be installed in the
Densité frame before the card can be inserted.
The IPG-3901 card is designed to fit into Grass Valley’s Densité-3 and Densité 3+ frames. Two different rear
connector panels are available:
•IPG-3901-3TRP Triple-slot-width panel for Densité-3
•IPG-3901-3+DRP Double-slot-width panel for Densité-3+FR1 and FR4
See section 2.3 for details of the signal connections available on these panels.
All cards and rear panels can be installed with the frame power on. The card has connectors that plug into a mid-
frame mother board for distribution of power and for connection to the controller card, and a second connector that
plugs directly into the rear connector panel for input and output.
The rear connector panel must be installed with the card out of the frame.
•To remove an existing card from the slot, tilt the swivel handle on the front of the card to lever the
connectors apart, then use the handle to pull the card straight out of the slot.
To install the connector panel:
1. If a card is installed in the slot whose rear panel is being changed, remove it as described above.
2. Remove the existing panel (either blank or belonging to an existing card that is being changed) by releasing the
captive screw(s) at the bottom (Densité 3 or Densité 3+ FR4) or side (Densité 3+ FR1) of the panel.
3. Position the new panel and secure it in place with the captive screw(s) at the bottom or side.
2.2 IPG-3901 Card Installation
Once a matching rear connector panel is in place, install the IPG-3901 card as follows:
1. Open the front panel of the frame.
2. Slide the IPG-3901 card into the slot and push gently on the handle to seat the connectors.
•When using a triple-slot-width rear panel in a Densité-3 frame, the card should be inserted into the right-
most of the three slots.
•When using a double-slot-width rear panel in a Densité-3+ FR1 frame, the card should be inserted into the
lower of the two slots.
•When using a double-slot-width rear panel in a Densité-3+ FR4 frame, the card should be inserted into the
right-most of the two slots.
Inserting the card into the wrong slot will not damage the card, and will be flagged by the on-card status LED
flashing red to indicate that there is no connection to the rear panel.
3. Close the front door of the frame.
