Epica DGX SC Optical Boards
Applicability Notice
This chapter pertains to the following Epica DGX SC Optical Input and Output Boards which are compatible in Enova
DGX enclosures:
FG1056-500 Input board
FG1056-510 Output board
Epica DGX SC Optical Boards have four input or output connectors per board.
Enova DGX 8
Enova DGX 8 enclosures can hold up to four Epica DGX SC Optical Boards. Each enclosure holds a maximum of two
input and two output boards, accommodating connector configurations up to a maximum of 8x8, as well as three subsets
(i.e., 4x4, 4x8, or 8x4).
Enova DGX 16
Enova DGX 16 enclosures can hold up to eight Epica DGX SC Optical Boards. Each enclosure holds a maximum of four
input and four output boards, accommodating connector configurations up to a maximum of 16x16, as well as subsets
(e.g., 16x8 or 4x12).
Enova DGX 32
Enova DGX 32 enclosures can hold up to sixteen Epica DGX SC Optical Boards. Each enclosure holds a maximum of
eight input and eight output boards, accommodating connector configurations up to a maximum of 32x32, as well as
subsets (e.g., 12x24 or 32x8).
Enova DGX 64
Enova DGX 64 enclosures hold up to thirty-two Epica DGX SC Optical Boards with four inputs or outputs per board.
Each enclosure holds a maximum of sixteen input and sixteen output boards, accommodating connector configurations
up to a maximum of 64x64, as well as subsets in increments of four (e.g., 12x48 or 52x8).
Signal Routing
DGX SC Optical Input Boards route signals to DGX SC Optical Output Boards or to any other type of Enova DGX
Output Boards. DGX SC Optical Output Boards accept signals from all types of Enova DGX Boards. These boards can
be used for non-HDCP signals but do not support HDCP. When routing signals between different board types, the Enova
DGX Switcher automatically converts the signal format to match the output board.
Important:
Signals which are not supported are: HDCP, 3D formats, any other video signal above
1920x1200, Deep Color, and any audio signals originating in a format other than 2 channel PCM digital or
analog stereo audio. When HDCP protected video signals are routed through fiber, the display provides a
dark red image to indicate the authentication process failed. When compressed audio signals are routed,
the display goes blank. Non-HDCP signals are accepted.
Currently, the following signals can be sent over DGX SC Optical Boards: HDMI, DVI-D, analog video, and digital or
analog stereo audio. Supported analog video input signals include RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, and Y/Pb/Pr (converted to
RGsB) and an RGBHV output signal.
DGX SC Optical Boards
must
be used in conjunction with DGX Fiber Modules (see the compatibility list on the next
page and the system setup information on page 116).
