9223SA-OM (V2.0)
Introduction
The 9223-SA is an advanced openGear™ H.264 SD/HD dual-channel encoder, with the
following features:
•
Video Inputs: support for composite, SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI.
•
Audio Inputs: support for unbalanced analog audio, and SDI embedded digital audio.
•
Outputs: 2 ASI ports and 2 Ethernet ports, supporting 100 Mb/s and 1 Gb/s operation.
•
Replication: each encoded stream can be replicated on both ASI ports and 4 times on
each Ethernet port.
•
Support for UDP/RTP on Ethernet.
•
Support for SMPTE 2022 FEC on Ethernet.
•
Closed-Captioning support (both EIA-608 and EIA-708 captions).
•
AFD extraction and insertion support.
•
Audio Encoding support: MPEG-1 Layer II and AAC-LC.
•
Support for pre-compressed Dolby AC-3 pass-through embedded in SDI inputs.
•
Support for secondary audio.
•
Muxing support: each output can be configured to carry either encoder as a Single
Program Transport Stream (SPTS), or both encoders as a Multi Program Transport
Stream (MPTS).
Product Overview
The 9223-SA supports up to two H.264 SD/HD encoders. The encoded transport stream can be
routed and replicated to Ethernet and ASI outputs. Both SPTS and MPTS outputs are supported.
The 9223-SA provides a compact form-factor standalone unit for distribution MPEG-4 encoding.
Utilizing the openGear® open-architecture control/monitoring platform, the 9223-SA can be
remotely controlled and monitored with the free, easy-to-use DashBoard™ setup and control
operator interface.
The following inputs are available:
•
Software-configurable Composite or SDI video inputs
•
SDI video inputs support SD-SDI, HD-SDI and 3G-SDI
•
Analog unbalanced audio stereo inputs
•
SDI embedded audio support
•
Two internal test packet generators (which can be used to generate ASI or IP test
streams)
