Figure 3 – COM360 Rear View
Figure 3 above shows the rear of the COM360 chassis.
The COM360 chassis also contains two 5-inch exhaust fans to provide cooling to the system.
Airflow is pulled through the ventilation grates on the front of the COM360 chassis across the
COM46 cards and out the back. In the case of an equipment failure, a broken fan should be
serviced and/or replaced as soon as possible.
3.2 COM46 Card
The COM46 card is a customized DIRECTV receiver with a built-in smart card and has been
specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of the Lodging and Hospitality markets.
The COM46 is an 8 channel receiver capable of receiving up to 8 HD or SD streams from a
single SWiM output, removing the NDS conditional access system, and adding the Pro:Idiom
content protection DRM. The output from the card is delivered over an internal Ethernet
connection to the integrated Ethernet switch on the backplane of the COM360 chassis. Figure 4
below shows a detailed picture of the COM46 card.
