Meta data included in an SDI frame can impact the streaming data rate and should be considered
when determining the over all data rate. The meta data can be broken down into horizontal and
vertical ancillary data (HANC and VANC respectively).
2) Use the following formula to calculate the
HANC Data Rate
in MB/s, where “HANC packets per
line” can be determined using Table 28 below:
