Maximum flexibility and convenience for audio, intercom and data connectivity.

Thunder is the newest generation high-volume audio/data/intercom transport link from Grass Valley, a Belden Brand, Thunder transports up to 80 audio, intercom, or data paths, configurable in 8-path groups (10 groups total), all on one or two strands of fiber, at the lowest price and most compact size ever available.

Simply equip the compact 1 RU frame with the appropriate Thunder Bolt I/O cards to create a fiber optic link that can solve virtually any audio/intercom/data connectivity situation in the teleproduction environment.

You buy only the components that you need. Individual analog and AES breakout panels as well as data and intercom devices can be configured in any combination to create an audio system that is perfectly suited to your particular application.

Whether you need a system that requires all 80 chan-nels of audio, a mix of audio, data or GPI channels, or even all data or GPI channels, Thunder provides maximum flexibility and convenience.

Analog audio signals can even be converted to AES format, and vice versa, by just configuring Thunder with an analog input or output Bolt card at one end of the system and an AES I/O Bolt card at the other.

Up to ten internal Bolt I/O cards can be installed in a frame.

Bolt Cards

Six Bolt cards are available, along with their signal complement:• Analog Audio Input, 8 channels• Analog Audio Output, 8 channels• AES Input, 4 channels (8 analog when decoded)• AES Output, 4 channels (8 analog when decoded)• Multiformat digital (RS-232/422/485), 4 channels,

bidirectional• GPI (general purpose, dry contact, SPST remote

switch closures), 8 channels, bidirectional

Breakout Panels

Each ThunderBolt card slot in the Thunder frame is associated with a DB-25 pin connector on the rear panel of the frame. Access to the card via this con-nector is provided by the use of a breakout panel. The breakout panel mounts in the frame, and has a matching DB-25 connector on the back, and audio/data/GPI connectors on the front. Each card type is matched with an appropriate breakout panel.

Five breakout panels are available:• Analog Audio Input (passive or active)• Analog Audio Output (support for one Bolt card or two

Bolt cards)• Data In/Out (one or two data cards and the GPI card

share a single breakout panel)• GPI In/Out (the GPI card and the Data card share a

single breakout panel)• Intercom (the Thunder Intercom panel can house up

to four intercom modules. Three types are available: – Balanced 4-wire – Clear-Com 2-wire – RTS/Telex compatible 2-wire
