Modator Chassis 2U

2U rackmount housing for up to 10 Pro Convert and Ultra Encode blade modules.

The Magewell Modator Chassis 2U is the physical foundation of Magewell's modular conversion and encoding system — a 2U rack unit that houses up to ten Pro Convert or Ultra Encode blade modules, sharing a single dual-redundant power supply, cooling system, and network management infrastructure across all installed modules.

When deploying multiple Magewell conversion or encoding devices, the Modator system is significantly more space-efficient and cost-effective than an equivalent number of standalone units. Ten simultaneous channels in 2U of rack space. A single Ethernet connection manages every installed module through Magewell Control Hub.

The chassis accepts a mix of module types — NDI encoders, NDI decoders, AIO modules, and Ultra Encode SDI Plus modules can all coexist in a single chassis. The chassis is sold separately from the modules. Specify the chassis once and populate it with whatever combination of modules your project requires.
