2.3.4.2 Digital Video Input (CE-HEVC/BNC Option Module)
High definition digital video can be input via the 75 Ω
female BNC connector (labelled SDI 1) on the rear panel.
The remaining connectors are not currently supported for
HD video. Ultra High Definition (UHD) (4K) video
encoding uses all four SDI BNC connectors. The input
video maybe either formatted as 4 synchronized HD
quadrants or as 4 synchronized interleaved sub pictures.
The LED (labelled LOCK) next to each connector shows
the lock status of the input video signal for that connector.
