Using the Equipment
The IP layer is according to RFC791 – Internet Protocol Specification.

3.10.5.6 Notes on IP Input Latency
FEC correction can be enabled or disabled on the card. When enabled and the
transmitter dispatches a valid ProMPEG FEC (Code of Practice issue 3 release),
FEC latency is introduced by the card. The latency introduced by card is directly
proportional to the FEC scheme configured at the source and is given by the
formula:
FEC latency = 2 x Rows X Columns x packet period
Packet period = ((TS per IP) (188) +54) 8 / Bit rate
The current buffer level status is indicated in milliseconds based on the total buffer
memory internally allocated by the card. This status indicates the total latency
measured from the card’s RJ-45 port to host. This status does not include picture
decoding latency introduced by host. Both buffer level and FEC latency are
configurable, allowing fine control of the card’s latency.
Current buffer level = Jitter Buffer + FEC latency + clock compensation
Clock drift compensation introduces a small amount of latency. The exact amount of
latency is based upon the difference between the encoded video’s clock rate and
the local clock rate.
The clock drift compensation should never be more than +/-5 ms. Typically, the
encoder and IRD clocks will never be the full 1620 Hz different and normally a
maximum compensation period of a couple of milliseconds is expected.
The maximum buffer size that should be configured is as follows (where bit rate is
specified in bits per second):
Max buffer level = (100000000-Bits required for FEC) / Bit rate
