The RU-VA2 is the optimum choice where connectorized, rack-mounted video attenuation is needed. This unit features two separate, passive isolated channels. A single input jack is provided for each attenuator. The output jack is intended to be connected to a 75 Ω terminated load. A front-panel knob is provided to adjust hot video levels down to the normal 1 volt p-p signal level. A single attenuator is capable of adjusting down the video level to half the incoming signal level.

In situations where excessive video levels may cause input overload artifacts, the RU-VA2 is easily connected to the circuit and adjusted for proper video levels. With the high density 1/3 rack width of the RACK-UP® series, an RU-VA2 can be conveniently added to a rack so it is available when needed.

RACK-UP SERIES

RACK-UPs are the original 1/3 rack width 1RU rack-mountable modules for the A/V, recording and broadcast industries. Module functions include mixing, switching, pre-amplification, power amplification, distribution, gain control, equalization and more. Some RACK-UP modules are constructed in solid encapsulated durable industrial black plastic enclosures; MAX RACK-UPs are assembled using heavy duty extruded aluminum and steel panels. The rear panels feature clear bold white lettering for the terminal blocks and connectors. Reverse-printed front-panel polycarbonate laminates provide an attractive, durable finished appearance for rack-mounted or free-standing use.

Since RDL first originated 1/3 rack width modules, RACK-UPs have led the industry in economical, high-performance and cost-effective long life solutions in system designs. Multiple RACK-UP modules may be interconnected, or may be connected with other RDL modules to form all or part of an A/V system. Certain RACK-UP modules are often used free standing; all RACK-UPs may be rack mounted. A complete range of mounting options is available for systems comprised of multiple modules.

RACK-UP modules provide input, output and control connections through terminal blocks and connector (or both) according to common usage in professional installations. Front panels are equipped with connectors, user controls and LED metering, as appropriate.

Functions and features provided by RACK-UPs, since their introduction, are still available today. This continuity in product offering and support makes RACK-UP modules a preferred long-term resource for system design solutions. RACK-UP SERIES modules are designed and manufactured in the U.S.A.
