SDI Video Switch Card Connections

Each Video Switch Card can cross-switch two video output sources
between two video receiving devices. The output from one video source is
connected to Switch Card input A. The input to the receiving device is con-
nected to Switch Card output A. The output from a second video source is
connected to Switch Card input B. The input to a second receiving device
is connected to Switch Card output B. When the card is switched, source A
is connected to receiving device B while source B is connected to receiving
device A. This card switches SDI video signals. Cable connections are made
using SDI compatible cabling terminated with 75 Ohm BNC connectors.

Note

There are two SDI Switch Cards in the default Master Module configuration.
One card connects to the Program video output of Ignite, and the other con-
nects to the Preview video output of Ignite. Refer to
