    Inter-Communications System (ICS) and produces MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS) compliant with STANAG 4609. The IVDO MULTI E+2 consist of the IVDO MULTI E+2 Hardware with a Graphic Users Interface (GUI). The primary Human Machine Interface (HMI), for both operator and maintenance functions, is through the IVDO MULTI E+2 GUI.

  • Page 20: Ethernet Interfaces

    5.1.5. DSP F UNCTION The IVDO MULTI E+2 design incorporates four DSPs each running various customer specified video/audio algorithms. Each DSP is independent from the other 3 and therefore gives a very flexible architecture to the system design. Communication and control come from the main Central Processing Unit (CPU) to the DSPs via an internal Ethernet switch.

  • Page 21: Design Considerations

    HERMAL ESIGN The thermal design for IVDO MULTI E+2 is conduction cooled utilizing both a heat frame and wedge lock system to move heat from the internal unit to finned heat sinks located on the surfaces of the chassis. The unit is designed to work with airflow across the external heat sink surfaces provided in the installation.

    The Main Board is responsible for the control of the data flow and the processing of video data, audio data and metadata in the IVDO MULTI E+2. The control of the data flow includes the data conditioning at the interfaces (i.e. ADC), multiplexing (data selection) and routing the encoded data to the appropriate outputs.
  • Page 24 5.3.2.1. Processor The Main Board for the IVDO MULTI E+2 is based on a main processor running at 1.0 GHz. The Main Board takes advantage of the high-speed PCI Express technology by attaching to a PCIe bridge. The PCI side of the bridge attaches to a USB bridge to allow external storage of data if required.
  • Page 25 UNCLASSIFIED iVDO Multi E+2 Commercial Technical Manual 5.3.2.4. USB Port A USB 2.0 port is available for use to move data to external storage devices. A standard USB to SATA adapter or external SATA cable could also be used if a SATA drive is available.
  • Page 26 5.3.2.6.4. SDI Video Interface The IVDO MULTI E+2 has four (4) SDI inputs or four (4) SD inputs, each capable of supporting rates up to 2 Mbps. Each input automatically adjusts for various cable lengths to provide optimum signal strength. These inputs supports SMPTE 292M for cable lengths up to 200 meters.
