Description
The DRM2-Plus Active Faceplate Power Supply is a rackable single power module designed to provide centralized power for AJA Mini-Converters. It occupies a 3 RU frame and delivers up to 288 W of consolidated output to power multiple converter modules. The unit is intended to streamline power management and secure Mini-Converter installations in broadcast and production racks.
The supply features an active single power architecture that supports standard and next-generation Mini-Converters. It can accommodate twelve standard Mini-Converters or six next-generation Mini-Converters when deployed in the matching frame. The active design helps maintain stable voltage under variable load conditions and reduces the number of individual AC power connections required in a rack.
Electrically the unit accepts 100 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz and provides a maximum output of 288 W. The faceplate integrates with a proprietary power interface used by AJA Mini-Converters to distribute power across the mounted modules. Power I/O is specified by the manufacturer protocol and the supply is intended to be used with compatible AJA frames and Mini-Converter series.
Connectivity and compatibility are focused on AJA Mini-Converters and compatible 3 RU frames. The faceplate mounts into a single 3 RU frame that secures multiple converters in a compact rack footprint. The product color finish is black and silver to match standard broadcast equipment aesthetics.
Typical use cases include centralized power for live production racks, broadcast studios, and OB vans where multiple Mini-Converters are deployed. It simplifies cable management and reduces AC outlet requirements when compared to powering each converter individually. Systems integrators can use this supply to create a cleaner, more serviceable converter array in high-density environments.
Installation is straightforward when used with the specified 3 RU frame and supported Mini-Converters, and the active supply is engineered for rack-grade durability. The build quality supports continuous operation in professional AV and broadcast settings and the form factor aligns with common rack layouts. The DRM2-Plus supply reduces installation time and provides a tidy solution for powering multiple converter modules.
