KONA IP Transport, Capture, Display v16.0r1 10 www.aja.com
KONA IP Features
KONA IP is designed as a flexible platform for supporting various different IP
standards and types:
• SMPTE ST 2110 uncompressed HD video over IP, including Transmit support for
2022-7, thus providing for playout redundancy.
• SMPTE ST 2022-6 uncompressed HD video over IP including support for
2022-7 Transmit and Receive.
• KONA IP can also be configured to use all streams for input or output, thus
supporting up to 4K p60 uncompressed transport via ST 2110-23 (in this case
2022-7 support is not available).
NOTE: NDI is supported on KONA IP in the same way as it is supported on KONA 4,
courtesy of running Newtek Connect.
KONA IP supports different operating modes for different needs. By loading
a different version of firmware, you can tune your AJA hardware to the
requirements of the task at hand.
Video Formats
See
for a listing of supported video formats.
Physical Connection for IP Video
• 2 x 10 GigE Ethernet SFP+ Cages - SFP+ modules (not included).
See
for a list of SFPs tested by AJA.
Inputs and Outputs
• AJA Desktop Software package configured by default for ST 2022-6 operation
with two simultaneous uncompressed streams on the top SFP (one In, one
Out).
• For ST 2022-7 operation, a second SFP is used for redundant transport of the
other SFP's signals.
• When supporting 4K with KONA IP via ST 2110-23, note that both SFPs are
being used in one direction, either input or output.
• KONA IP HDMI output supports HDR signaling and monitoring for HDR10
and HLG. HLG support is application dependent. Check with your software
manufacturer for compatibility.
Digital Audio Input
• 16-Channel embedded audio
Digital Audio Output
• 16-Channel embedded audio, 16- and 24-bit per channel, 48 kHz sample rate,
synchronous
• 8-Channel HDMI embedded audio, 48 kHz sample rate, synchronous
Signal Timing
• 1x BNC assignable to reference video or LTC input
• Relevant to SMPTE ST 2022-6 workflows only
• Not used for SMPTE ST 2110 workflows
