Figure 1-1 shows a functional block diagrams of the 9374-Series card.
9374-Series Input/Output Formats
The 9374, 9372, and 9371 cards which comprise the 9374-Series vary only in
the number of discrete SDI streams (channels) handled by the card. Each
embedded channel within an SDI stream can be swapped between SDI
streams or between the card’s AES and MADI interfaces as shown for each
card in Table 1-1. Furthermore each of these three cards is available as
embedder-only (-EM) or de-embedder-only (-DE) versions. Where functional
or operating descriptions apply only to specific cards, these differences are
noted.
Note:
Video formats on
SDI IN A
/
SDI IN B
must be same format. First received input
sets priority. If next received input is not of this format, its output is replaced
with a flat-field of the priority format and an alarm is set. SDI input pairs on
SDI
IN C
/
SDI IN D
have similar constraints. Note however that common formats
are not required between input pair
SDI IN A
/
SDI IN B
and
SDI IN C
/
SDI IN D
.

(1) On -EMDE, 8 AES pairs (BNCs) total are available, which can be selected as either inputs or outputs
(2) Input/output complements listed require appropriate rear I/O module. See 9374-Series Card Rear Modules (p. 2-4) in Chapter 2,
“Installation and Setup” for more information.
