a. Housing Frame & Control
i. Configurator (Frame Layout Tool)
With the Miranda Configurator, you will be able to quickly and easily design your Densité frame to your precise needs using a comprehensive web application. It is also very good reference tool to get the information on a specific Densité module and its available rears, the block diagram, the specification and the ordering information.
When you are ready to design your Densité frame, a list of all available Densité series modules will appear and you will be able to drag-and-drop the selected module and its rear to your frame. The configuration rules or constraints are used to determine which rears and options can be used together on which modules, and ensure that your Densité frame is properly des
- Web-based tool speeds the configuration of Densité frames
- Compatibility checking on frame, modules and rears
- Easy drag-and-drop frame population
- Access to detailed information about Densité modules
- Configuration load/save/print functions
- Configurations can be exported to an Excel file for reference and support
- Simplifies quotation requests
ii. Densite 2 Frame (20 multi-format modules in 2RU)
The 2RU Densité 2 frame offers multi-format operation, with the ability to process simultaneously 3Gbps, HD, SD, and analog video, as well as AES and analog audio. The frame can be fitted with 2RU Densité modules, and provides advanced monitoring and back-up capabilities. The front opening frame features dual hot-swappable power supplies (PSUs) and fans. The modules for the frame are also hot swappable, and replacement modules can be configured automatically. The frame is air-cooled and all modules, redundant PSUs and fans are monitored to provide status via GPI or an optional Ethernet port. Front panel multi-color LEDs provide status reporting. The basic frame configuration includes one PSU and a controller card, which allows card adjustments by the front panel.
- Multiple video and audio formats can be fitted in a single chassis
- Up to 20 cards in a single 2RU frame
- Easy configuration by front panel or remotely via Ethernet
- Remote control by RCP-200 advanced control panel, RCP-100 basic control panel, and by PC-based iControl Solo GUI
- Hot-swappable power supply, with optional redundant power supply
- Supports full range of interfacing, distribution and monitoring modules
- Can be stacked without additional cooling spaces
- Redundant Ethernet connection with DENSITE-CPU-ETH2 option
- Full network link redundancy using Channel Bounding, with
DENSITE-CPU-ETH2-OPT-LNK option
iii. Densite 3 Frame (20 multi-format modules in 3RU)
The 3RU Densité 3 frame offers true multi-format operation, with the ability to process simultaneously 3Gbps, HD, SD, and analog video, as well as AES and analog audio. The frame provides advanced monitoring and back-up capabilities. It can be fitted with 3RU and 2RU Densité modules (using card extenders). The frame features dual hot-swappable power supplies and fans. The modules for the frame are also hot-swappable, and can be configured automatically when a card is replaced. The frame is air-cooled and all modules, redundant PSUs and fans are monitored to provide status via GPI or the Ethernet port. The basic frame configuration includes one PSU and a controller card, which allows card adjustments by the front panel. Front panel multi-color LEDs provide status reporting.
- Multiple video and audio formats can be fitted in a single chassis
- Up to 20 cards in a single 3RU frame
- Backwards compatible with 2RU Densité or Densité 2 modules
- Easy configuration by front panel or remotely via Ethernet
- Remote control by RCP-200 advanced control panel, RCP-100 basic control panel, and by PC-based iControl Solo GUI
- Hot-swappable power supply, with optional redundant power supply
- Supports full range of interfacing, distribution and monitoring modules
- Can be stacked without additional cooling spaces
- Redundant Ethernet connection
iv. iControl Solo (Stand alone PC-Based Control)
Control Solo is a stand-alone, PC-based control GUI for Densité modules, which is provided as standard with Densité modules. It provides easy ‘tree-based’ control and configuration of up to 100 Densité Series modules, and does not require Miranda’s Application Server. Operators are provided with quick access to devices and parameters for fast and easy control.
More advanced control requirements, demanding simultaneous, multidevice monitoring and error logging can be met with the iControl Web and iControl PM applications
- Easy to use ‘tree-based’ control and configuration direct from a PC.
- Runs on Windows XP™ Professional
- Easy problem resolution using status indicators
- Ideal for ‘set and forget’ operations
- Control of up to 100 cards
- Software does not require the use of a Miranda Application Server
- Download free iControl Solo software
v. RCP-100 (Remote Control Panel)
Miranda’s RCP-100 panel meets the requirement for fast and easy operator remote control, with a ‘knob-per-function’ access to critical functions and parameters.
- Designed to control wide variety of functions
- Soft legend LCD buttons simplify user interface by eliminating need for cumbersome menus
- Dedicated knobs for multiple proc amp controls
- Ethernet, 422 serial interfaces
- Field upgradable using compact

b. Frame Options
i. MSB-1121
Multi-format monitoring router for Densité frame
The MSB-1121 Monitoring Switching Bridge (MSB) greatly extends the functionality of the Densité Series by providing a scalable and cost-effective way of monitoring the video and audio outputs of modules without using external connection per module. The MSB supports a wide range of Densité Series distribution amplifiers, embedders / de-embedders, audio and video converters, fiber optic converters and monitoring probes. All cards showing the MSB compatible logo in the ordering information are supported by the MSB.
When installed in slot 20 of a Densité frame, the MSB allows users to select the output of audio or video modules in the frame, and route them to a common SDI monitoring output. The MSB-1121 supports cards of any format by performing the required audio and video conversion to normalize the signal prior to the output. The MSB-1121 supports Analog, Digital or embedded audio, and allows either audio follow video (AFV) or breakaway switching operation.
- Integrated monitoring router for Densité frame (MSB does not support HD)
- Monitors the output of any MSB supported module
- Multiple MSB equipped Densité frames can be cascaded
- Built-in signal conversion for monitoring analog/digital video and audio
- Powerful user interface displays signal presence and status
