Introduction
INTRODUCTION
Network I/O – SDI is a broadcast specification bidirectional bridge between Embedded SDI Audio, a Dante IP Audio Network and industry standard MADI.

natural_image
Front panel of a solid-state logic device with no visible text or symbols on the main body (pure technical diagram)Includes eight 3G-SDI paths with embedders and de-embedders for 16 audio channels. The unit has dual Dante and triple MADI connectivity (2 x optical, 1 x coax). In addition to SDI-Dante bridging, SDI allows direct bridging between SDI and MADI infrastructure. Internal channel-by-channel routing enables flexible routing between all three domains, or can be used as a standalone audio router. As you would expect redundant PSUs provide reassurance in a 24-hour Broadcast environment.
For more information about Dante see Audinate's website: http://www.audinate.com/

Hardware Connectivity
POWER
Network I/O – SDI includes redundant PSU with IEC connectors, either supply can individually power the unit – both should be used for redundancy. Ideally these should be connected to separate mains supplies to provide external connection redundancy.
SDI
8 SDI inputs and 8 SDI outputs with auto format selection up to 3G SDI. These are video thru circuits with 16 channels of Audio De-Embedding and Embedding. Sample Rate Conversion (SRC) per audio group. The SDI circuits are represented in the Network I/O - SDI Software Manager as cards 2, 4, 6 and 8. Each card includes 32 audio channels 1-16 being SDI 1, 17-32 being SDI 2 on each card.
NETWORK (DANTE)
Primary and Secondary Dante connections (Net1 and Net2) are provided on RJ45 connectors. The Primary port is the control connection for the Network I/O SDI configuration tool.
A pair of LEDs per port provides network connection and activity information:
ACT flashes when there is network activity
GB shows solid green when connected to a gigabit network




Note: The Dante Controller application cannot be used on the secondary connection.
MADI
Three MADI ports can be provided: two fibre and one copper. The optional fibre ports can be configured to function as a redundant pair. The interface is via SFP sockets, for use with multimode or singlemode LC fibre cables. The third MADI port is via standard BNC connectors.

Configuration of the SDI unit is carried out using the *SDI Manager* PC application. This programme can be downloaded from SSL's website here. Connect a Windows™ PC to the Net 1 connector on the SDI unit using a standard network cable.

Diagram showing a device panel connected to a laptop, with a red arrow pointing to the component.IP ADDRESS
SDI units are shipped with a static factory default IP address of 192.168.1.10 for the Network I/O controller.
It is likely that this will need to be changed – or set to automatic – in order to fit in with the network environment in which the unit is to be installed. To do this, set your windows PC TCP/IP settings to a fixed address in the same domain as the SDI unit. (As shown right.)
The SDI Manager connection uses a separate IP address from the Dante connectivity. Settings for the Dante Environment should only be managed through the Dante Controller software.

Routes are connected by highlighting sources and destinations in their respective columns and clicking . Connect
The selected routes will now be added to the existing routes shown in the crosspoint status window.
Dourneet can also be used in this pane of the software to remove routes based on the destination(s) selected.
When stereo signals are available in adjacent odd/even pairs, these may be routed together by selecting the Stereo button below the card type selector.
It is possible to perform one-to-many routing (i.e. distribution) or simultaneous one-to-one routing. If a differing number of sources or destination is selected then the number of routes made will be equal to the lower number of I/O selected in either column.

OTHER SETTINGS
Other settings on specific SDI units are accessed via the button at the lower centre of the left pane in the software window. Each of the tabs is described in the following section.

Configuration changes can be saved from any of the page tabs.
Note that saving any changes will require a restart of the unit.
Sample Rate
- General Sample Rate – Set the general sample rate for the SDI unit to match the wider environment.
- Sample Rate Adaptation Source allows the unit's sample rate to be automatically adjusted as an external device changes.
The adaption source can be set to any of the separate or embedded clock reference signals.
Word Clock Output Sample Rate - Used to set the word clock to 48kHz or 44.1kHz (for use if the general sample rate is a higher rate e.g. 96kHz - sometimes called legacy mode).
Synchronization
Set the hierarchy of clock sources. Double-click in the Priority cell to alter the settings.

When using SDI with a Dante network all the Dante and other network settings should be set from Audinate's Dante Controller software (downloadable for OSX and Windows here: Dante Controller). Detailed instruction for this software can be found in the Dante Controller Manual – this guide gives you some basics that will allow you to get started.
Registration with Audinate is necessary before files become available for download.
NETWORK CONFIG
Each Dante device requires an IP address for communication – both the Primary and Secondary Network ports can be set to either DHCP or Fixed Addresses. The Primary and Secondary ports must be kept on separate networks or VLANS. This document covers the basics of connecting MADI Bridge to a pair of simple networks.
Please consult a network specialist for network design when considering more complex networks.
Key things to help you with IP addressing:
If either (or both) networks does not have a DHCP server and the Primary or Secondary network ports are set to DHCP then either (or both) will resolve to a link local address, eg. 169.254.x.x. This will take slightly longer to be functional from a power-up state but will always work.
If using fixed addressing the primary and secondary ports need to be on different subnets.
