Switches
Teranex Mini - 12G-SDI to Quad SDI’s switches provide the following settings:
Switches 8 & 7 - Quad SDI Output
Switches 8 and 7 are represented as bits 1 and 0, respectively. This simply means that by setting
various on off combinations of switches 8 and 7, you can choose how an 12G-SDI Ultra HD
signal is split among your Teranex Mini converter’s four outputs.
Below are some example configurations for converting an Ultra HD signal to quad link, dual link
or quad HD split mode.
If the input is 12G-SDI and switches 8 and 7 are set to ‘off’, the output will be interleaved quad link.
If the input is 12G-SDI, switch 8 is set to ‘off’, and 7 is set to ‘on’, the output will be 4 HD quadrants.
If the input is 6G-SDI, switch 8 is set to ‘on’ and switches 7 and 6 are set to ‘off’ the output will
be dual link 3G-SDI level B.
If the input is 6G-SDI, switch 8 is set to ‘on’, switch 7 is set to ‘off’ and switch 6 to ‘on’, the output
will be dual link 3G-SDI level A.
When the converter is in Quad HD split mode, the 4 outputs will carry 4 independent HD
quadrants to form the complete Ultra HD image.
The switch legend on the base of your converter gives you
all the information you need to change conversion settings.
Switch 6 - 3G Level B/A
This setting lets you change the 3G-SDI output standard to maintain compatibility with
equipment that can only receive level A or level B 3G-SDI video. Level B is the default setting,
and is accessed by setting switch 6 to ‘off.’ To output Level A video, set switch 6 to ‘on.’ These
settings only apply when outputting 3G-SDI video.
