11-slot expansion chassis that adds capture and output slots to a VSNV3 video wall controller, with the link kit and redundant power supply included. For large video wall projects that outgrow a single chassis.
Large-scale video wall projects often require more resources than a single VSNV3 chassis can provide — as more capture channels are added or wall sizes increase, physical slots become scarce. The VSNV3 expansion chassis is an 11-slot unit that lets customers seamlessly add capture or graphical output cards to a master system without swapping out the original controller — more than one can be added to the same master system if the project needs it.
The HLink-G3, SLink-G3 and Ex-Cable-G3 link kit needed to connect it to the master is included in the price — nothing extra to order alongside it. Full gen-locking is achievable between cards dispersed across chassis, giving tear-free video on video walls even when capture and display cards are split across two or more physical boxes.

Range and alternatives
This is the piece that saves an integrator from re-specifying an entire project when a video wall grows. Rather than swapping a VSNV3 for a bigger system, the expansion chassis bolts on an additional 11 PCIe slots to the existing master unit — useful on traffic management and utility projects where the wall size is often only finalised after the initial install, or where a phased rollout is planned. The link kit needed to connect it is included in the price — no separate purchase required. More than one can be added to the same master if a project genuinely needs it, each with its own included kit.
Worth planning for: the HLink-G3 card fitted in the master chassis to support this expansion occupies one physical slot on the master unit — the expansion chassis itself keeps its full 11 slots free, since only the master side loses capacity. An 11-slot master with one 11-slot expansion therefore gives 21 usable slots in total (11 − 1 on the master, plus the expansion's full 11), not 22 and not 20 — factor this into the card count when specifying a system that will need to grow, and use EMS's Build My System tool or get in touch to confirm the real usable slot count for a specific configuration.
