Phabrix Qx IP Series - IP Connections

Note:Use of SDISFP's for Eye and Jitter analysis and the 'Loop' signal passthrough feature is not supported.
SDI Outputs (SFP)
Both SFP+A and SFP+B can be used as transmit connections for SDI. Dependent on the SDI SFP types used,
up to x4 SDI output connections from 1.5G HD-SDI to 12G-SDI are available.
By default, internally, within the Qx, the generator provides four SDI output signals which must form part of the
same video signal set. Even when a single link standard is generated by a user, 'Generator Output Copy'
behaviour is implemented for SDISFP's automatically. The generator will provide either:
l x4 single link
l x2 dual link
l x1 quad link
On the internal SDI output signal paths of the Qx:
l a single link standard will always be carried on ‘SDI OUT A’, and then repeated on ‘SDI OUT B’, ‘SDI
OUT C’, and ‘SDI OUT D'
l a dual link standard... on ‘SDI OUT A’ and ‘SDI OUT B’, and then repeated on ‘SDI OUT C' and ‘SDI
OUT D'
l and a quad link standard will be delivered using all four outputs: ‘SDI OUT A’, ‘SDI OUT B’, ‘SDI OUT
C', and ‘SDI OUT D'
Which of these internal SDI output signal paths are utilized as externally available SDI outputs will depend on
the SFP types installed. See ‘SDI SFP Connections Overview' section of this manual for more details.
IP Connections
ST 2022-6 Input Optical SFP connection [Analyser - IP Mode]
The receive connection for IP video is SFP+A. This is the right hand most SFP when viewed from the rear.
This provides the multirate 2022-6 IP video analyzer connection from 1.5G HD-SDI to 3G-SDI over IP.
If the SMPTE ST 352 packets are known to be incorrect then the user has the option to select ‘Ignore
payload identifier packets (ST 352)’ in the ‘Analyzer - Video Standard’ window.
ST 2022-6 Output Optical SFP connection [Generator - IP Mode]
The transmit connection for IP video is SFP+B. This is the left hand most SFP when viewed from the rear.This
provides the multirate 2022-6 IP video packet generation from 1.5G HD-SDI to 3G-SDI over IP.
Note: For both SFP+A and SFP+B, use optical SFP's approved by PHABRIX. Use of incompatible SFP's will
lead to an error message window appearing on the Qx screen when powered up.
LC to LC optical multi-mode duplex fiber cables should be used. Cables of the following specifications are
approved by PHABRIX: OM1 (62.5/125), OM2 (50/125), OM3 (50/125), and OM4 (50/125).
