Output
|
|
● 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports
● Maximum loading capacity of a single Ethernet port:
○ For 8-bit input sources: 650,000 pixels
○ For 10-bit/12-bit input sources: 320,000 pixels
● Support redundancy between Ethernet ports.

OPT1
OPT2
|
● 10G optical ports
○ Single-mode twin-core fiber: Support LC optical connectors; wavelength: 1310 nm; transmission distance: 10 km; OS1/OS2 recommended.
○ Dual-mode twin-core fiber: Support LC optical connectors; wavelength: 850 nm; transmission distance: 300 m; OM3/OM4 recommended.
● The maximum loading capacity of a single optical port equals to that of all the 6 Ethernet ports.
● 2 OPT inputs/outputs
○ The OPT1 works as the primary input or output port, and the 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports work as the corresponding output or input ports.
○ The OPT2 works as the backup input or output port of OPT1.
● In the sending card mode, both OPT ports and 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports can work as output ports to output the same image.
● In the fiber converter mode, when the OPT ports work as the input ports, the 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports work as output ports. When the 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports work as input ports, the OPT ports work as output ports.

MONITOR
|
|
Connect to a monitor to monitor the inputs. The output resolution of this connector is 1920×1080@60Hz (fixed output with a width of 1920 pixels and height of 1080 pixels).
If the input resolution exceeds the monitor resolution, the input will be automatically scaled in proportion and then displayed on the monitor starting from its top left.
