| Component | Power Draw | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| HYDRA Body (compute) | 1 kW per unit | Dedicated circuit recommended, on-site compute only |
| Access Point (via PoE) | 25.5 W per AP | Provided through PoE+ switch |
| Receiver Workstations | 150 W per unit | Mac Mini ~40 W; Dell ~150 W |
| Display Screens | Per manufacturer spec | |
| Total (on-site compute) | ~1.5 kW per single-field deployment | Excluding displays |
| Total (remote compute) | ~200 W per field | AP + switch + workstations only |
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Network Gear | 6U rack space (router, switch, PoE injector), HYDRA-supplied network only |
| Compute (if racked) | 19U rack, 24-inch depth minimum, on-site compute only |
| Compute (standalone) | HYDRA Body can be placed on floor or table |
| Remote Compute | No rack or floor space required for compute |
| AP Mounting | Non-metallic pole or ceiling mount, adjustable 3–4 m, centered over play area |
| Cable Pathway | CAT6a from network gear to AP mount point; ethernet to each workstation |
| Attribute | Requirement |
|---|---|
