9223-OM (V2.0)
The following outputs are available:
•
Two ASI outputs
•
Two Ethernet outputs, supporting full-duplex 100 Mb/s and 1 Gb/s operation
In general terms, configuring the 9223 includes the following steps:
Step 1: Configure the encoders.
Step 2: Configure the outputs (ASI or IP).
Step 3: Make connections between inputs and outputs.
The connections between inputs and outputs can be made as part of the input or output
configuration steps. The 9223 supports many-to-many connections.
The overall architecture is depicted below.

For the remainder of this manual, the term port for a physical input/output port (such as ASI or
Ethernet), and stream for a transport stream present in the port. ASI ports support only one
stream, while Ethernet ports support multiple streams.
