I have a question about modular OpenGear, is compatibility with another tecnology how Harris/Leitch Frame 6800/6801?

That's a negative. Most of those systems are closed systems and are mostly incompatible with each other.

That said, I have personally seen a few businesses transition from their Evertz and Miranda frames to Ross OpenGear with great success. I've personally deployed a fair share with both BMD and Ross cards and have been very happy with the results.

The DashBoard control system Ross has developed is a very, very, nice tool.

Thanks Alexis, do you know if the cards of these frames Harris (leitch) with the Adapters Cobalt 5000 series works in to the OpenGear?

I'm fairly sure none of the Harris/Leitch stuff is going to work in OpenGear frames, but considering Cobalt also makes OpenGear cards, maybe they adapted a some of them. I suggest calling your supplier or Cobalt directly to get a real answer, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.
