Connecting to CoaXPress video input connectors
When attaching video sources to your Matrox Radient eV-CXP, you must use
75
Ω
, coaxial cables with standard BNC connectors. For the best performance, it
is recommended that you use high-quality cables, such as Belden 1694A cables.
Video sources can be connected to the CoaXPress video input connectors in any
order. For example, if you have two video sources, which would each be connected
to Matrox Radient eV-CXP with two coaxial cables, you can connect the cables
as follows:
Matrox Radient eV-CXP communicates with the video sources to identify which
video source is connected to which input connectors.
❖
Note that if you are using more than one coaxial cable to connect to the same
video source, the cables you choose must be of the same type and length.
The length of cable that you choose will affect the maximum data transmission
rate. In general, for lengths greater than 40 m, the longer your cables, the lower
the maximum possible bit rate. For example, using high-quality, 100 m cables,
the maximum possible bit rate is 3.125 Gbits/sec.
Another factor that affects the bit rate is the quality of the cables that you choose.
