5.11.9. Set the Video Crosspoint State
Set the connections between the
stream sources and the destination
ports.
Move the cursor of the mouse above
the desired crosspoint. You can check
your selection in the
Highlighted Streams
section. Click on the selected crosspoint to set up the connection.
5.11.10. Set the Source MUX Settings
DEFINITION:
The source multiplexer (
Source MUX
) makes available routing more different source signals
to the HDMI output ports. The setting is available only on the output ports of the receiver and transceiver
operation modes. The type of sources is different for the outputs.
Click on the left side of the output port tile to access the
MUX settings. The available options are the following:
Receiver (UBEX RX) Side
For HDMI out 1
▪
Stream
- The source signal is the stream received
via the SFP+ links
from the remote endpoint device;
▪
HDMI in 1
- The source signal is the stream received
via the local HDMI in 1
port.
For HDMI out 2
▪
Stream
- The source signal is the stream
received
via the SFP+ links
from the remote
endpoint device;
▪
HDMI in 2
- The source signal is the stream
received
via the local HDMI in 2
port.
▪
Copy
- The receiver is able to
copy the signal
of the HDMI out 1
port. This is the
COPY
function.
Transceiver (UBEX TRX) Side
For HDMI out 2
▪
HDMI in 2
- The source signal is the stream received
via the local HDMI in 2
port.
▪
Copy
- The receiver is able to
copy the signal of the HDMI out 1
port. This is the
COPY
function.
ATTENTION!
If the selected source is the local input port or the copy of the HDMI out 1, the output is still
selectable as a destination in the global crosspoint table. It means the crosspoint setting is not forbidden
for the selected output and it is still included in the bandwidth calculation. When the sum of the two
incoming streams exceeds the bandwidth limit, the signal transmission can be denied on the HDMI out 2
port even if the incoming stream of the HDMI out 1 is not used. The solution of this limitation is disabling
of the unused destination port.
Appereance of the Destination Tile
When the selected source is the local input port or the copy of the HDMI out 1, the
destination port tiles and the crosspoint tile appear as the following:
5.11.11. Check the Signal Bandwidth Status
Check the signal bandwidth and the bandwidth limit status
indicator. When the bandwidth limit is exceeded, the source/
destination port tiles and the crosspoint tile appear as the
following:
Bandwidth Limitation
If an endpoint exceeds bandwidth limit, the MMU disable the
stream of HDMI in 2 of the transmitter automatically. The stream of HDMI in 1 is transmitted continuously.
Solution
More possible solutions can be applied to avoid the bandwidth limitation:
▪
Enable the scaler / FRC on the HDMI inputs of the transmitter;
▪
Apply the color space conversion on the stream source(s).
▪
In the case of 10 GbE link (only one SFP+ module / DAC cable is installed in the SFP+ ports) upgrade
the bandwidth performance of the endpoint to 20 GbE.
5.11.12. Set the HDCP Settings
Check the HDCP settings either on the sources and destinations. For more details about HDCP technology
see the
▪
Click on the source port properties
panels on the transmitter side and
select the
Port
tab. Check the
HDCP
enable
setting. Put a tick to enable
HDCP capability on the port.
▪
Click on the destination port
properties panels on the receiver side
and select the
Port
tab. Check the
HDCP mode
setting.
INFO:
UBEX extenders always authenticate the highest version of HDCP-encryption and cannot force the
lower version.
