Information About the ILC450 Module
ILC450 Function Module
10G HD/SD-SDI, ASI IP Gateway & GigE Data Transport
Information About the ILC450 Module
This manual introduces the ILC450 function module and includes information for installing and conguring
the module.The ILC450 module is a single channel ASI, SD-SDI, or HD-SDI over IP gateway with 1 Gigabit (G) of
Ethernet trac bridged between its 10G and 1G interfaces.
The ILC450 can operate as a transmitter or receiver as follows:
• Transmitter—Video input is auto-sensed as either HD-SDI or SD-SDI or ASI on the input BNC or
backplane input. If the video data is ASI, it is packetized as SMPTE 2022-2 packets and SMPTE 2022-1
forward error correction (FEC) packets are included to maximize reliability. If the video data is HD-SDI
or SD-SDI, it is packetized as SMPTE 2022-6 packets and SMPTE 2022-5 forward error correction
packets are included to maximize reliability.
• Receiver—Either SMPTE 2022-1/2 ASI video or SMPTE 2022-5/6 SDI packets are received, de-
encapsulated, and fed out both the backplane and BNC out. FEC packets are used if included to help
recover packets that are lost due to an unreliable Ethernet link.
The ILC450 provides exible user-congurable FEC and buering settings:
• Selectable transmitter row and column FEC settings.
• Selectable receiver buering.
• Designed to withstand burst outages in excess of 3mS.
Additional features include the following:
• Auto-senses the video signalling format.
• Supports transport of 1G (bridged from the 10G interface) of user data trac through the rear panel
SFP or backplane connection to Ethernet ports of other 1G Ethernet-featured modules in the chassis.
• Supports 10 Gigabit for transport of combined user data and video trac over a SFP+.
• Fully transparent carriage of SDI data, audio, or ancillary data.
• Support for +/- 30 ppm frequency oset for HD (SMPTE 274 section 5.1 species +/- 10 ppm) and for
SD video.
• Support for +/- 100 ppm for ASI streams.

2ILC450 Function Module Installation and Operations Manual
ILC450 Function Module
• Standards-based encapsulation and FEC:
– SMPTE 2022-5/6 IP encapsulation of HD-SDI or SD-SDI including FEC.
– SMPTE 2022-1/2 IP Encapsulation of DVB-ASI including FEC.
– SMPTE 2022-5 FEC recovers lost, damaged, or delayed packets of HD and SD-SDI.
– SMPTE 2022-1 FEC recovers lost, damaged, or delayed packets of ASI.
• Support for unicast or multicast streaming.
You provision and monitor the ILC450 module as follows:
• Provision and monitor the module remotely using InnityLink Manager, which is Artel’s element
management system (for more information, see the InnityLink Manager Setup and Operations
Manual).
• Monitor the module locally using the front and rear panel status LEDs.
• Upgrade the FPGA using InnityLink Manager (see the InnityLink Manager Setup and Operations
Manual).
ILC450 Module Functional Description
This section provides a functional description of the ILC450 module, including Figure 1, which are functional
block diagrams of the module operating in transmitter and receiver modes.

ILC450 Function Module Installation and Operations Manual 3
ILC450 Module Functional Description
Electrical/Optical Inputs and Outputs
The ILC450 module can transport both video and user data and uses the following inputs and outputs:
• Two electrical rear panel connections for video data:
– One input BNC connector (IN).
– One output BNC connector (OUT).
• Rear panel SFP+(10G) and SFP (1G) transceiver sockets:
– 10G—User and video data. The module’s operating mode determines the conguration of trac
through this port as follows:
- Transmit (TX) mode—IP video traverses out of this socket.
- Receive (RX) mode—IP video traverses in to this socket.
– 1G—User data only
The SFP+and SFP sockets support the following optics:
– WDM (1310 nm, 1550 nm)
– CWDM ITU G.694.2 (Channels 27-61)
– (SFP only) DWDM ITU G.694.1 (Channels 21-60)
The SFP+and SFP sockets support the following electrical connections:
– (SFP only) RJ45
– (SFP+ only)10GbE passive copper cables
• Backplane connections for sharing signals with other host chassis modules.
• Front panel 75Ohm HD-BNC output jack (MON) for local signal monitoring (see the“Monitoring the
Module Using the Monitor Jack” section on page 16).

Installing the ILC450 Module
The ILC450 module and associated SFP and SFP+are hot swappable, enabling you to safely install them while
power is applied to the host chassis. Before you install the module, see the ILC450 data sheet for a detailed
description of the module specications, including environmental requirements, that you must adhere to
when installing the module.
Note: You must install the ILC450 module in a chassis that includes IL Manager functionality as the
module requires IL Manager for conguration and monitoring purposes. For more information,
see the“Conguring the Module” section on page 8.
To install the ILC450 module in the host chassis (see Figure 4), perform the following steps:
1. From the back of the chassis, remove the two screws that secure the blank tray to the unused function
module slot.
Use any available function module slot.
2. Slide the module into the chassis slot using the printed circuit board guide rails on either side of the slot.
3. Push the module in until it is rmly seated into the backplane and ush with the chassis.
4. Tighten the two mounting screws that secure the module to the chassis.
5. Install the Artel approved SFP+in the 10G socket and the SFP in the 1G socket of the module (handle on
top as shown in Figure 4).
Push the SFP+and SFP into their designated sockets until they are rmly seated.
6. Insert a blank tray in any unused chassis module slot to maintain proper ventilation.

Cabling the BNC Connections
To connect to the BNC connectors on the ILC450, use a high quality 75 Ohm precision video coax cable, such
as Belden 1694A cable.
To cable the BNC electrical connections, perform the following tasks:
• Input signal—Connect the coax cable to the ILC450 receive connector (IN) and the source device’s
electrical transmit connector.
• Output signal—Connect the coax cable to the ILC450 transmit connector (OUT) and the destination
device’s electrical receive connector.
Cabling the SFP+and SFP Connections
When using an optical SFP+or SFP, use a single mode ber when connecting to the LC connectors of the SFPs.
To cable the 10G (SFP+) and 1G (SFP) connections, perform the following tasks:
1. (Optical only) Remove the safety plug that protects the TX and RX ports.
Cover any unused optical port to keep the port clean.
2. Connect the ber optic or electrical cable between the SFP+and SFP connectors on the module and the
external source or destination device as follows:
• 10G Socket—(SFP+) User and video data.
• 1G Socket—(SFP) User data only.
Conguring the Module
You congure the ILC450 module operation using the InnityLink Manager (IL Manager) element
management system and the module’s conguration page.
