1. Introduction
1.1 General description
The DTM-3200 is a compact OEM module to convert ASI to or from a Transport Stream over IP
(TS-over-IP or TSoIP). Next to the serial ASI interface, the unit supports a parallel interface. The
direction of the conversion (TSoIP to ASI or ASI to TSoIP) can be configured programmatically
through the control interface.
Figure 1. The PCB of the DTM-3200
The DTM-3200 is available in two models and a development kit (see also §3.3):
DTM-3200 with standard pin headers (power connector is right-angle type);
DTM-3200-RA with right-angle pin headers;
DTM-3200-DEVKIT: DTM-3200 with power supply and cables.
1.2 TSoIP-to-ASI mode
When configured as TSoIP-to-ASI converter, the unit accepts unicast and multicast streams over its
Gigabit-Ethernet port. Key features include de-encapsulation of UDP or RTP, IP jitter removal and
error correction according to SMPTE 2022-1. The resulting stream is transmitted simultaneously on
the ASI output connector and the parallel pin header.
