oGx Frame

The Foundation of openGear

oGx, the fourth-generation openGear modular frame from Ross embraces intelligent design, robust control, and unparalleled reliability.聽 oGx reflects decades of broadcast expertise, offering an intuitive front panel, resilient power management and a vast ecosystem of openGear products. Every aspect of oGx is designed to meet the evolving demands of 24/7 broadcast and production operations. Explore the myriad features and discover how oGx seamlessly integrates the broader openGear universe.

Smart Modular Design

oGx offers the flexibility of independent rear modules for connectivity to a wide array of interfaces such as BNC, twisted-pair audio, and fiber, supporting analog to UHD and IP. The independent rear modules are available in different I/O configurations for select cards, including high density split rear modules allowing up to 20 independent openGear庐 cards in the oGx frame. Each frame also includes dual reference inputs.

Smart Front Panel

Know the status of your frame at a glance. Integrated LCD display provides frame name, IP address and reports any alarms. Customize the look of your installation with the bold, programmable RGB LED bar, which also doubles as not-to-be-missed alarm indicator. Color code your rack room by function, air chain, or whatever works for you!

Smart Power

oGx accommodates 2 front-loading, hot-swappable power supplies. The split outside location of the power supplies makes installation a breeze when utilizing an alternate phase power source. A single 600 watt supply can fully power a loaded frame, and the addition of a second (optional) supply gives the frame full power redundancy. Each power supply contains an independent cooling fan, status LED, and a front mounted power switch.

Smart Control

A rich set of control interfaces are included in every oGx Frame. Ethernet connectivity allows DashBoard control of openGear cards in the frame. DashBoard provides full setup, real-time control and monitoring, plus provides tools for creating customized workflow through CustomPanels. With the optional Advanced Networking controller, DataSafe will automatically backup card settings and restore them if the module is swapped. Optional SNMP support allows control and monitoring from third-party control solutions.

Smart Reliability

oGx was built from the ground up for reliability. Decades of engineering and broadcast experience have been poured into every detail to ensure oGx is up to the demand task of 24/7 operation. The system includes integrated smart cooling with redundant cooling for the power supplies and an easy-to-clean air filter. The frame features a passive backplane, so that every active component in the system can be hot-swapped from the front. oGx also supports hot-swappable redundant power supplies for maximum protection.

Smart Ecosystem

The oGx is built by Ross at our Iroquois facility and is the universal frame embraced by our openGear partners. This means you benefit from the collective genius of the entire openGear ecosystem. Multiple manufacturers’ products coexist within the oGx. Instead of being confined to a single vendor’s proprietary offering, the availability of diverse solutions from Ross and the openGear partners ensures the availability of solutions suited for every application.

A standard feature of the oGx’s advanced network controller, DataSafe is your safeguard against downtime. Whenever an openGear module is replaced, this ingenious feature performs an automatic restoration of all settings, thanks to the parameters stored on the frame’s local network card. Considering some cards can contain over 100 parameters, from audio channel delays to video proc levels, DataSafe eliminates guesswork and tedious manual reconfiguration. You can toggle DataSafe on or off for individual slots via the frame鈥檚 network controller card using DashBoard. Plus, its smart design ensures parameter restoration only when a compatible replacement product is detected.

oGx’s advanced network controller may optionally be equipped with SNMP.聽 This direct support means there is no need for any external gateways.聽 Additionally, SNMP runs on a separate software port allowing for simultaneous control from both DashBoard and SNMP clients. This is especially useful in applications, for example, where system wide monitoring is performed using SNMP and real-time control is performed using DashBoard.

Frame controllers provide a single point of Ethernet access to communicate with DashBoard-capable openGear modules in an oGx frame, as well as monitor and control the frame itself. As with other cards in the frame, the frame controller is a hot-swappable card/module.

Basic openGear Controller
Provides a 10/100 Ethernet connection for a single DashBoard client.
Compatible with most cards but ideal for ones with limited sets of controls and monitoring parameters such as distribution and switching products.
An affordable option, perfect for “set-and-forget” scenarios like bulk distribution amplifiers.
Advanced openGear Controller
Features GigE connectivity for both external networks and in-frame cards.
Supports multiple DashBoard client connections concurrently.
Offers DataSafe and optional SNMP functionalities.
Essential for advanced openGear cards with extensive controls, including the Gator series, MC1-UHD, and AMX-8952 audio products.
