7.4.2 CE-a J2K VCM
7.4.2.1 Overview
The CE-a J2K Video Compression Module (VCM) is a single card that can encode a
single video input.
Figure 7.3 CE-a J2K VCM
Note: Up to 6 CE-a J2K modules can be fitted in the unit, but limitations due to
operational temperature may apply.
The CE-a J2K VCM cannot decode or encode audio input streams. However, it can
pass-through linear PCM or Dolby E encoded streams embedded in the SDI signal.
The VCM is also capable of processing Ancillary Data (ANC) but only in HD mode.
