Configuration and control

3.1 In Multicon

The HD-TD-10GX-8-SFP is made to be as transparent as possible, and therefore there are
only a few functions that are configurable. The modules will do as little as possible to the
signals themselves, but they will provide error detection and a few nifty options to raise alarms
on unexpected video formats, or to diagnose errors that occur very infrequently.

As far as the user interface goes, the mux part of the module uses a laser and laser on/off
setting, whereas the de-mux part has a pin-diode receiver which does not have any settings.

There are four bidirectional I/O BNCs whose direction can be controlled; these are BNC 5 to
8. Using the configuration settings, the user can choose to set each channel individually to
be either an output or an input, and there is a switch matrix in order to set the desired output
channel to any of the inputs.

Furthermore, the number of error types that can be detected is more for the input signals than
the output signals, also there is an extra signal integrity block for the 10G input.

The following illustration shows the user configuration settings.
