The HLP 4200 is Harmonic’s flexible platform for mounting
broadband communications equipment. The platform
measures three rack units in height, accommodates a
power supply and up to five of Harmonic’s standard 2.6”
wide plug-in modules, or up to ten of the “half width” 1.3”
wide plug-in modules. It includes a common communication
and DC power bus with RS-232 and RS-485 interface
connectors. This high-density packaging design minimizes
headend space requirements, making it an ideal platform
for narrowcasting applications. With its modular design and
built-in communications interfaces, the HLP 4200 provides
operators with the infrastructure to meet emerging broadband
network requirements.
Two configuration options are available. Model HLP 4200WD,
with the front panel display option, enables module set-up
and monitoring via the 40 character alphanumeric display
with push button controls. With the HLP 4200ND, without
the front panel display, module set-up is accomplished via
the module front panel function slide switch and set-up
adjustment. With either option, module set-up and monitoring
can also be accomplished using the NETWatch Element
Management System or a local computer connection.
