IP Mode
The IP is a standard interface supplied w ith the Vision Series Modem. If IP is selected
under Edit/Unit/Interface/Terrestrial then the follow ing interface description applies.
The Vision Series supports tw o RJ45 Ethernet ports – one remote control and the other
reserved for future use. IP traffic requires the use of the P3714 IP Traffic option card.
The base modem Ethernet supports 10/100 BaseT data rates and uses CAT 5 Ethernet
cable, either straight or crossover, depending upon whether the modem is connected
directly to a host or hub/switch.
The Edit/Unit/M&C menu allows modem IP configuration.
The P3714 IP Traffi c card provides 2 RJ45 10/100/1000 BaseT Ethernet ports. The IP
Traffic port on the base modem is redundant and should not be used. The IP Traffic card
does not replace the base modem M&C Ethernet interface, w hich should continue to be
used for remotely configuring the modem over Ethernet.
ASI interface
The DVB Asynchronous Serial Interface (ASI) interface provided by the P3710 Quad ASI
card consists of four 75Ohm BNC connectors that can be independently configured as
ASI input or output ports.
The interface type can be configured under Edit-Unit-Interface-ASI for the enabled
port(s). The modem configuration limits the maximum packet rate. The external
equipment must limit the packet rate sent over the Asynchronous Serial Interface (ASI)
port.
The ASI interface can support MPEG packets up to the ASI limit of around 216Mbps
corresponding to the ASI data rate of 270Mbps w ith 8/10 bit encoding.
