IP Inputs
IP Inputs receive transport streams over UDP/IP from the Ethernet ports, de-jitter them, and
make them available for connections to outputs. The 9220 card supports up to 8 transport stream
inputs per Ethernet port. IP Inputs have the following specifications:
•
Format support: MPEG-2 Transport Packets over UDP/IP.
•
Maximum data rate per stream: 120 Mb/s.
•
Number of MPEG-2 Transport Packets per UDP datagram: between 1 and 7 (no support
for IP fragmentation).
•
Addressing support: unicast, multicast and broadcast.
•
Configurable source IP address filtering.
•
Configurable IP Address/UDP Port redundancy.
IP Inputs: Configuration Tab
The IP Input Configuration follows a similar workflow as the ASI Ports. Ports can be created,
configured, and deleted. Before any ports are created, the Configuration Tab appears as depicted
below:
To create an IP Input stream, first select the desired Ethernet port in the Add Stream drop-down
box. Once that selection is made, the IP Input Stream Configuration is displayed, as depicted
below. The configuration screen has three areas:
•
Common Parameters: apply to the stream input as a whole, regardless of the
redundancy options.
•
Redundancy Control: allows selection of the redundancy mode.
•
Addressing Parameters: allow selection of the network stream to be received
