ENCLOSURE CONSTRUCTION

All enclosures should be constructed from 18mm (3/4”) Medium Density Fibre board. Enclosures should be glued and screwed, because MDF is porous. FUSION recommends sealing the internal sides with a polyurethane sealer prior to installation. To accurately cut the subwoofer hole use the unique FUSION ruler guide included inside the FUSION Subwoofer packaging.

ENCLOSURE PLACEMENT

An important factor is to place the subwoofer enclosure as far back in the vehicle as possible, so that the natural bass gain of the vehicle is utilised. If your vehicle is a hatch back, always experiment with which direction the subwoofer is facing. Facing the subwoofer towards the rear of the car, should enhance the low down bass that NV Series Subwoofers are designed to produce.

ENCLOSURE TUNING

When tuning the system it is always a good idea to try running the subwoofer out of phase (which means switching the speaker wires around) with your other speakers. Do this and listen to the system to see if the perception of bass is more from the subwoofer location or the front speaker location. Which ever way gives the better perception that the bass is coming from the front speakers, would quite safely guarantee the subwoofer is wired correctly.

CALCULATING ENCLOSURE ‘BOX’ VOLUME

Cuft:

To calculate Cuft multiply the height (A), width (B), depth (C) in inches, then divide that number by 1728.

Example: 10" high x 18" wide x 12" deep = 2160 inches³ Divide 2160/1728 = 1.25 ft³

Litres:

To calculate Litres, multiply the height (A), width (B), depth (C) in centimetres, then divide that number by 1000.

Example: 25.4cm high x 45.72cm wide x 30.48cm deep = 3539cm³ Divide 35396/1000 = 35.39 litres

NVSW12, NVSW15 specifications

Fusion NVSW15 and NVSW12 represent the latest in advanced switching technology designed for high-performance networking environments. These switches are engineered to cater to modern data center demands and support a diverse range of applications, making them an ideal choice for enterprises and service providers alike.

One of the standout features of the NVSW15 is its high bandwidth capability, which supports a switching capacity of up to 15 Tbps. This immense throughput allows organizations to handle large volumes of data traffic efficiently, which is crucial as more devices connect to the internet and demand for data-intensive applications grows. Conversely, the NVSW12 offers a slightly lower capacity of 12 Tbps, making it a cost-effective option for those who may not require the full capabilities of the NVSW15.

Both models employ cutting-edge technologies such as Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). VXLAN dramatically increases the scalability of cloud environments, enabling the creation of virtual networks on top of the existing physical network infrastructure. MPLS, on the other hand, ensures efficient data forwarding and reduces latency, which is critical for real-time applications such as video conferencing and online gaming.

The NVSW15 and NVSW12 also come equipped with advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features, allowing for precise control over traffic to ensure that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth. This is especially important in mixed-environment data centers where different applications often compete for resources.

Security is another key focus, as these switches integrate robust features such as IEEE 802.1X authentication and dynamic ARP inspection. These protocols help protect network integrity by mitigating threats and ensuring that only authorized devices connect to the network.

In terms of management, both models support centralized management through intuitive user interfaces and APIs, facilitating easier configuration and monitoring. Compatibility with various networking protocols ensures they can be integrated smoothly into existing infrastructure.

Overall, Fusion's NVSW15 and NVSW12 switches offer powerful, flexible, and secure networking solutions tailored to meet the high demands of today's digital landscape. With their superior capabilities, organizations can confidently support their evolving networking needs.
