UCP-3901 Gateway & MV Applications
Universal Compute Processor for Densité 3+
The UCP-3901 is a user-configurable multichannel video-over-IP transceiver developed for use within low-latency and high-bandwidth Ethernet IP networks. It can simultaneously encode two and decode two 12G SDI signals using either SMPTE ST 2110 or SMPTE ST 2022-6 encapsulation standards and transport them over dual 25 GbE links (SMPTE ST 2022-7) providing "hitless" redundancy switching.
To enable hardware processing flexibility, the UCP-3901 can utilize alternative Software Defined Cores (SDCs) that can be purchased and loaded as operational requirements change.
With its essence processing (EP) SDC, UCP-3901 acts as a gateway between multiple SDI inputs/outputs to/from uncompressed...
FEATURES
General Features
- Handles up to 16 SDI signals over dual or quad 25 GbE IP links (number of channels dependent on SDI signal format)
- Multiple SDI standards & formats supported including 12G Single-link & 4K UHD SDQS or 2SI 1080p (3G) modes
- Configuration of Ethernet links to maximize signal distribution points using dual or quad SFPs, or for redundancy as per SMPTE ST 2022-7. When operating as a receiver will dynamically adapt to any stream presented to it (i.e., hitless switching)
- UHD Single Stream SMPTE ST 2110 and 12G SDI I/O
- Supports IGMPv3 source-specific multicast, allowing transmission in multicast groups
- Supports frame-synchronized SDI inputs and outputs, referenced using external blackburst/tri-level analog sync reference
- Fast, clean and quiet switching via make-before-break or break-before-make
- Low delay mode and independent H & V offset available for each channel along with up to two frames of video, and up to 255 ms of audio delay
- Seamless integration with GV Orbit Control, Configuration & Monitoring software including logging & reporting
