Bulkhead breakout panels (BHP) provide a convenient way of connecting audio and auxiliary input and output signals to the VIP™ module. BHP's may be outfitted with BNCs and/or terminal strips, extending AES, GPI/O, Tx/Rx, Analog Audio and GND connections as described below. BHPs occupy ½RU, 1RU, 2RU or 3RU of rack space and are designed for mounting at the rear of the rack panel. BHP are included with specific line item order options as defined below.

The 7760AVM-BHP Bulkhead Breakout Panel can be used to connect up to five or ten 7760AVM2 modules. Each of the ten sets of connectors on the breakout panel is fitted with two BNCs for audio in or out, two six position terminal strips for the 4 channels of analog audio, and one six position terminal strip for the GPI I/O and RS-232 signals.
