Single or dual embedder
For each side with an input option card, audio channels can be selected from any four
mono channels available from the input card. These channels can then be routed to any
one of the four audio channels available in any one of four audio groups in the output SDI
stream via that side’s embedder.
Single or dual de-embedder
Up to four mono audio channels can be selected from any one of the four groups from
that side’s SDI input. These four channels can then be routed to any of the four mono
channels available on the output card, and/or to that side’s embedder.
Mixed de-embedder/embedder
With an audio input option card fitted in one side and an audio output option card fitted
into the other side, a mixed embedder/de-embedder can easily be configured.
Dual de-embedders and dual embedders
If two input cards are fitted, then each embedder may select any four signals to embed out
of the eight available; four from the input card and four from the de-embedder on the
same side as the embedder. If either side has no card, or an output card, then that side may
embed any four out of the four available from the de-embedder on the same side as the
embedder. De-embedders and embedders may be enabled or disabled at any time.
Note:
Audio and video signals cannot be routed between one SDI circuit and another.
Audio channels can be transferred from one group to another. However, audio channels
can only be de-embedded from within one group and embedding into one (possibly
different) group.
There is one delay module available on each side, this means that delay can be assigned
to an output router or an embed router but not to both.
