FEC
The Forward Error Correction allows the card to automatically recover lost packets. This increases the
productivity of the card by transporting data with better quality. Once the card is upgraded to the FEC
supported firmware, follow these steps to confirm if all configuration settings match the requirements to
enable FEC
:
Make sure these port values matches on the TX and RX side WebPages. The Destination IP address
should not be entered more than one. To enable FEC the user must start three different TX side
Proxies. For three different TX side Proxies to receive the stream, the user may need the source to
multicast its stream.

- TX Side
All the source UDP ports on different streams on both TX and RX sides should be different and should
match the destination UDP port on the other side. The ARQ port should be set equal to the source UDP
port on the RX side.
