Transmission - Racking the Equipment

We have finally managed to find and sort out some half height mobile racks that we think will be suitable for the TX, Distribution and Presentation areas on the day of the event. Jamie has been busy drawing up system diagrams and working out what pieces of equipment would need to appear on the CTP's of each rack.

Meanwhile we racked the TX equipment (encoders, mux, IRD etc) into one of these racks in preparation. It got a bit fiddly in terms of leaving enough space so that everything could be cooled and so that each piece of equipment would be easily accessible from the back of the rack. In the end everything managed to fit and after plugging up and sorting out a few minor problems within the encoder configurations the rack was up and running again.
