Description

Blackmagic Design Spares - Power Module - 12VDC 225WThe Blackmagic Design Spares Power Module 12VDC 225W is a heavy duty internal power supply unit designed for the most power intensive hardware in the Blackmagic lineup. Providing a massive 225 watts on a 12V DC rail, this module is engineered for "Enterprise" class devices that feature high density FPGA processing, extensive 12G SDI crosspoints, or large arrays of physical controls. High Current Performance With a 225W rating, this module can deliver

The Blackmagic Design Spares - Power Module - 12VDC 225W is a heavy-duty internal power supply unit designed for the most power-intensive hardware in the Blackmagic lineup. Providing a massive 225 watts on a 12V DC rail, this module is engineered for "Enterprise" class devices that feature high-density FPGA processing, extensive 12G-SDI crosspoints, or large arrays of physical controls.

High-Current Performance

With a 225W rating, this module can deliver approximately 18.75 Amps of current. This high capacity is necessary for devices that manage significant heat dissipation and complex mechanical tasks simultaneously.

  • Voltage: 12V DC (Standardized for high-end broadcast logic).

  • Wattage: 225W (High-overhead for mission-critical reliability).

  • Input: Universal AC 100V–240V.

  • Efficiency: Designed for 24/7 "always-on" environments like broadcast master control rooms and live production trucks.

Compatible Hardware

This power module is typically found in Blackmagic's "flagship" 2RU and larger devices, where a 60W or 150W supply simply wouldn't provide enough current:

  • ATEM 4 M/E Broadcast Studio 4K: The massive processing requirements for 80+ inputs and multiple M/E rows require this level of power.

  • Smart Videohub 40x40 (12G-SDI models): Routing forty 12G-SDI signals creates significant thermal and electrical load that requires a high-amperage supply.

  • Teranex AV / Express: Standards converters that perform intense real-time pixel processing and frame rate conversion.

  • Universal Videohub Frames: Used in modular router frames to power multiple I/O cards.

Symptoms of Failure

Because this module handles such high current, failures can be more dramatic than in smaller units.

  • Thermal Shutdown: If the module's internal cooling or capacitors degrade, the unit may shut down under load (e.g., when all 40 SDI ports are active).

  • High-Frequency Whine: A common sign of aging capacitors in a 225W supply, indicating it can no longer provide "clean" DC power.

  • Fan Failure Triggers: In some units, if the power module's voltage rail dips, the system fans may spin at 100% (failsafe mode) or stop entirely, leading to a secondary overheat on the Main PCB.

Key Features

  • Broadcast Grade: Low-ripple DC output to ensure no electrical noise is introduced into the SDI video signals.

  • Active/Passive Hybrid Cooling: Often features its own integrated heat sinks and is positioned near the unit's main fans for maximum longevity.

  • Redundant-Ready: In many 225W devices, these modules are designed to be paired with a second module for power redundancy.


Technical Installation Note

Replacing a 225W power module is a high-level repair that requires strict adherence to safety protocols.

  • Lethal Charge Warning: The large primary capacitors in a 225W supply can store a lethal electrical charge for a significant amount of time. Wait at least 15 minutes after unplugging the AC source before opening the unit.

  • Terminal Integrity: Unlike smaller modules with plastic clips, 225W units often use screw terminals or high-density spade connectors for the 12V output. Ensure these are tightened to the correct torque; a loose connection at 18 Amps can cause electrical arcing and fire.

  • Mounting and EMI: Ensure all mounting screws are used. This module generates a significant electromagnetic field; the metal chassis serves as both a heat sink and an EMI shield.

  • Airflow Check: When replacing the module, inspect the internal chassis fans. A power module failure is often preceded by a fan failure that caused the supply to bake in its own heat.

Are you replacing this in a Videohub 40x40 or an ATEM switcher? Knowing the specific device can help determine if there are additional calibration steps required.

Not super chew material
Style: Tipsy Rosé
This is marked as a super chewer. But it’s super flimsy I returned because my dog would destroy it in seconds. If you have a super chewer don’t recommend this toy!

Excellent
Style: Bundle
These are so cute. My Chihuahua couldn’t pull them apart until I got it loose for him. A bigger dog may be able to do this easily. I think that is why he’s wasn’t too impressed with these. As a pet parent, they are a great toy. Extremely well made and excellent quality. Great value as well.

Poor durability
Style: Bundle
Stuffing was everywhere in minutes. The fabric is as thin as a carnival prize. I like the idea but it needs better execution.

Been an hour! Update days later
Style: Bundle, Style: Bundle
And he is still going at the brown monkey. I am shocked. Usually he's ripped his toy to shreds right now. LOL. Amazing! I'll update this review with the photo and the actual time to destruction. Update: Few days later, he killed it. Not sure where the stuffing came from inside the monkey, but we put it back together and loves to sleep with it. He's working on it again. I am just so amazed. I thought he was gonna finish it tonight, but he got tired since his job wasn't accomplished. LOL
