Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Connect your 3G-SDI sources to the dedicated SDI inputs and your IP network via the 10G Ethernet port (RJ-45 or SFP). Ensure your network infrastructure supports 10Gbps speeds and SMPTE ST-2110 protocols, including PTP synchronization. Use the front panel LCD and control knob to configure IP addresses, select PTP settings, and route inputs. For power, connect the included external power adapter or utilize Power over Ethernet (PoE+) if your network switch supports it and you are using Cat6 copper cables.
Compatibility: The converter is compatible with standard SDI equipment and adheres to the SMPTE ST-2110 suite of standards. It supports common analog signal formats like NTSC and PAL, and chroma subsampling rates of 4:2:2 and 4:4:4. Supported operating systems for configuration software include Mac OS X 10.15 Catalina, Big Sur, and Windows 10.
Care: Keep the device in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing the unit to moisture or extreme temperatures (operating range: 0-40 °C). Regularly check physical connections to ensure they are secure.
