g CTRL (control) connector (RJ-45)
Connect to an Ethernet switch
The MVS-8000/8000A Multi Format Switcher Processor
and the MVS-8000/8000A system's center control panel
are connected in the same way to the Ethernet switch to
form a network for exchange of signals between the
devices.
This network is used primarily to control the various
devices from the center control panel.

i REF IN (reference video signal input) connectors
(BNC type)
If you wish to synchronize this unit to an external reference
signal, input the reference signal. For an HDTV system,
input an HD tri-level sync signal, black burst signal, or
analog sync signal. For an SDTV system, input a black
burst signal or analog sync signal.
The two connectors have a loop-through configuration.
Signal input to one connector can be output from the other
connector. If you will not be using the loop-through
output, be sure to terminate the unused connector with the
supplied 75Ω terminator.
