914-HDE Motherboard Overview
Figure 4-1 shows the top view of a 914-HDE card with user interface connectors highlighted. The remote and
console 914 cards are physically identical; the only difference between them is the EEPROM configuration and
optical transceiver. The 914-HDE does not use physical DIP switches for system configuration and settings. All
settings are accessed via the Model 914 Diagnostic GUI and are saved in non-volatile memory. Firmware updates
may also be available. Please visit

* 1000 BASE-T is not supported by default. If HD-SDI video is not required, this feature can be traded for 1000
BASE-T in L1 versions via the diagnostic GUI under the Ethernet options tab.
** In M1 version both 3G-SDI and full bandwidth gigabit Ethernet cannot be supported simultaneously. While 3G-
SDI video is passing through the system, the maximum available bandwidth for Ethernet is 350Mb/s.
*** MS expansion channels have limited available bandwidth, especially when 3G-SDI is active.
