The GV Node IP Gateway (IPG-4901) plug-and-play module from Grass Valley is a 3 RU single slot module for the GV Node frame, which offers bidirectional fiber IP connectivity. Not all IP signals are created equal. While Grass Valley provides a very complete IP solution, there will still be requirements to provide conversion to/from other equipment that supports IP standards that are incompatible. The new IPG-4901 IP Gateway provides a robust feature set for normalizing variances in IP signals sent to GV Node or GV Matrix I/O.
- Two dual-network interfaces supporting 10 GigE SFP+ ports with either:
- Long range single-mode optical connectors
- Short range multi-mode optical connectors
- Augments SMPTE ST 2022-6 video payload with individual audio streams using VSF TR-04
- Supports bursty server-originated sources with SMPTE ST 2022-6 core
- Full compliance to SMPTE ST 2022-7 Class A of all IP essences
- Input signal alignment with up to 2 frames
- Support of DiffServ for network traffic provides categorization of flows into QoS classes
- May be configured according to user preference using either iControl or GV Node controller
- Controlled using standard GV Node control options of NV9000 or GV Convergent
- Compatible with GV Node and GV Matrix platforms
- Uses Universal Reference Signal from the frame controller
