XTract – Version 1.01 – User’s Manual

EVS Broadcast Equipment – January 2011

Issue 1.01.A

3. Network Architecture

XTract is installed on the same computer as an XTAccess application. XTract is

the interface application used to manage the backup and restore functions.

The files to be archived and restored are located on one or several XT[2]/XT[2]+,
XS and/or XTnano servers and storage units connected to the same network.

Two networks are used for the various communication and the transfer of files as
illustrated. Physically, these networks can be one and the same or separate for

the sake of performance:

o

The MTPC network is used to detect XT[2], XT[2]+, XS and XTnano servers,
to identify them, and to transfer the list of clips to be backed up.

o

The HCTX network is used to transfer the clips data between the XTract and
XTAccess computer, the XT[2], XT[2]+, XS and XTnano servers and the

storage unit.
