MLA Master Rack
The MLA Master Rack (Part No. ASF17031) is a 4U flightcased rack containing:
•
a Merlin unit
•
a 2U connector panel providing easy access to all Merlin's inputs and outputs (audio and
network)
•
a 6-port Ethernet switch
•
a Rukus Wi-Fi router
Front of Rack:
MLA SLAVE RACK
This optional component (Part No. ASF17032) has been developed to facilitate simple network
connections to larger MLA systems, where the arrays are fully flown either side of a wide stage.
In this situation, it is useful to have a second U-Net/Ethernet switch (plus the possibility of
additional derived fill feeds) on stage. The MLA Slave Rack is a 4U flightcase with the same
components as the MLA Master Rack, except that the Wi-Fi router is omitted.
