Cable equalisation >200m Belden 8281 or equivalent
Auto 625/525 line selection
Automatic de-embedding of SMPTE or Sony format

VIDEO SDI OUTPUT
Two channels SDI 270Mbit to EBU 3267-E & SMPTE 259M
Audio is embedded to SMPTE or Sony format
Two outputs of each with suitable rear connector

DELAY THROUGH BOARD
6us

EMBEDDER TIMING PERFORMANCE
Interchannel: <1 clock cycle
Audio to video: Min 160us for Sony data format AES audio input. Min 1ms for analogue audio input
De-embedder automatically handles asynchronous and synchronous audio

MONITORING
One miniature front mounted audio jack and switch selects individual stereo audio analogue monitoring on both embedder and de-embedder. Also available on frame rear module.

EDH
EDH insertion on embedder

STATUS MONITORING
Front card edge visual monitoring with alphanumeric and LED indicators to indicate:
PSU rails present: LED
SDI inputs: Alphanumeric display
AES audio inputs: Alphanumeric display
Audio silence: Alphanumeric display
Piggyback card types: Alphanumeric display

DIGITAL AUDIO DELAY
Presetable and controllable via the card, frame active front panel, remote panel and Statesman. Each half of TANDEM has its own adjustable delay up to 0.68 seconds max

AUDIO PROTECTION IN DE-EMBEDDERS
A variety of sophisticated techniques are employed to protect and minimise the effects of cuts to untimed and asynchronous SDI. An AES/EBU reference can be applied to maintain audio integrity (silence) with loss of video

TOOLBOX ANALYSER FUNCTIONS
The Toolbox Analyser provides a detailed analysis of the SDI input
Reports include: SDI present, audio groups present, selected audio present, selected audio silent, non audio HANC data present, audio marked for deletion, audio data rate OK/high/low, checksum and format errors, parity error, TRS OK, Video standard = 625/525 lines, Video Picture Luma Content present/low or missing, Video Picture Chroma Content present/low or missing, valid/invalid audio source for embedder, embedding error (eg. no HANC space)

CONTROL
All functions available from board edge and Statesman PC Control System
All main functions available from frame active front panel and remote panel
SNMP monitoring and control available as a frame option

GPI CONTROL
Four GPI inputs can be used to recall stored presets
Two GPI outputs have programmable alarm outputs
