B.1 Control Ethernet Specification
B.1.1 Overview
The system has two Ethernet control ports that support IEEE 802.3 100BaseTX and
1000BaseT Ethernet protocols. The Control ports are accessible via RJ-45
connectors on the rear panel of the chassis and support IEEE 802.3u auto-
negotiation and parallel detection. Also, the ports support Auto-MDIX.
See Chapter 2, Installing the Equipment for connector details.
B.1.2 IP Parameters
It is possible to configure the following IP parameters for the Control Port.
Table B.1 IP Parameters (Control Port)
Parameter Specification
IP Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (Ipv4)
Network Mask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (Ipv4)
Gateway Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (Ipv4)
Note: The front panel always provides a way of changing these settings to prevent
all control interfaces being disabled.
B.2 Data Ethernet Specification
B.2.1 Overview
The Ethernet Data ports support IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation and parallel
detection. The auto-negotiation function can be disabled to force the line speed to
be either 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps.
These ports support Auto-MDIX. This function can be disabled
See Chapter 2, Installing the Equipment for connector details.
B.2.2 Data Port Parameters
The Transport Streams output via the IP Outputs contains 188 byte long Transport
Stream packets.
The time that a port has had a link established is recorded to an accuracy of ± 1
second, and the information made available to the user.
