IQUCP50 GATEWAY

Universal Compute Processor for 50GbE IP Systems

The IQUCP50 is a user-configurable multichannel video-over-IP transceiver developed for use within low latency and high bandwidth Ethernet IP networks. It can encapsulate or de-capsulate up to 16 SDI signals (depending on format) using either SMPTE ST 2110 or SMPTE ST 2022-6 encapsulation standards and transport them over redundant 50 GbE links (SMPTE ST 2022-7) with either dual or single port options providing “hitless” redundancy switching.

The IQUCP50 is a Universal Compute Processor offering low-latency, high-bandwidth multichannel broadcast processing/routing for SDI and IP applications. Delivering up 16 channels of 3G or four channels of UHD, this flexible powerhouse can adopt...

FEATURES

Key Features
  • Handles up to 16 SDI signals over dual 50 GbE IP links with dual and single port rear panel options (number of channels dependent on SDI signal format) 
  • Multiple SDI standards and formats supported, including 12G Single-link & 2SI 1080p (3G) modes over Single-stream or Quad Stream SMPTE ST 2110
  • Supports configuration of Ethernet links for maximum signal transport using both SFPs or for dual-link mode to provide link redundancy as per SMPTE ST 2022-7, and when operating as a receiver will dynamically adapt to any stream presented to it
  • Supports IGMPv3 source-specific multicast, allowing transmission in multicast groups 
  • Supports frame-synchronized SDI inputs and outputs, with audio rate adaption, referenced to either SMPTE ST 2059-2 PTP or via the IQH4B frame analog reference bus for blackburst/trilevel syncs
  • 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 and reporting 
Essence Processing (EP) Features
  • SMPTE ST 2110-20 video including UHD Single-stream

  • SMPTE ST 2110-40 metadata associated with SMPTE ST 2110-20 video stream
  • SMPTE ST 2022-6 Transport of High Bit Rate Media Signals (HBRMT) (SDI) over IP Networks
  • SMPTE ST 2042 (VC2) low-latency high quality compressed IP transport
  • SMPTE ST 2022-7 Class A & D seamless protection switching
  • SMPTE ST 2059-1 & -2 precision time protocol
  • NMOS IS-04 discovery and registration with group hints tag support
  • NMOS IS-05 device connection management
  • In-band or out-of-band control of NMOS
  • Support of DHCP, LLDP and DNS-SD for easy IP configuration
  • Both FC-FEC (Fire Code) and RS-FEC (Reed Solomon IEEE) Forward Error Correction are supported
