1. Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
The 3G-SDI/ST2110 over IP Uncompressed Gateway Converter allows HD-SDI
and 3G-SDI equipment to be extended up to 100ft (30m) via UTP Cat 6a/7 cable
(model 500767-2110-UTP), or up to 1300ft (400m) via duplex multimode OM4
fiber with LC connectors (model 500767-2110-MM), at up to 1080p resolution @
60Hz uncompressed, in a point-to-point configuration. A second Media/Data port
is provided and can be used to support ST-2022-7 Redundancy (Seamless
Protection Switching). Thus a second MuxLab SFP module (model: 500970-UTP
for UTP model, or 500970-MM for multimode fiber model) is pre-installed and
included.
Point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint configurations are also possible by
connecting several units to a 10G Ethernet network. The unit provides a 1G
Ethernet Switch port for unit management via a RestAPI or NMOS, and an
RS232 port for remote control of end devices (for future implementation).
The following diagrams illustrate typical multipoint-to-multipoint LAN
configuration.

1.2 Applications
The 500767-2110 is an ideal solution for SDI/IP hybrid environments. It
allows broadcasters the ability to have a single IP infrastructure rather
than two different ones. The 500767-2110 applications include
commercial broadcast AV systems, news/sports/TV stations and movie
networks.

2. Managing the 500767-2110
The 3G-SDI/ST2110 over IP Uncompressed Gateway can be managed through
its Web interface and API. The system supports the ST-2110 protocol, and ST-
2022-7 Redundancy for critical applications. This section describes how to set up
the 500767-2110 parameters using both the Web interface and the API.
2.1Web interface
Configuring the 500767-2110 from the Webinterface requiresa TCP/IP connection
from the unit 1G Ethernet port to your network. The 500767-2110 default IP
address is set to DHCP. If no DHCP is available on your network, as a TX,
“Console LAN” port / “Media 1” port / “Media 2” port will be 192.168.168.64/65/66
addresses respectively. As a RX, “Console LAN” port / “Media 1” port / “Media 2”
port will be 192.168.168.67/68/69 addresses respectively. To be able to log in to
the 500767-2110 Web interface, your computer has to be in the same subnet.
The Console LAN port and Media 1 andMedia 2 media/data ports are shownbelow
(media ports are shown without the included SFP module).

2.1.1 Configuring the 500767-2110 as a TX
This section will describe how to configure theunit as a TX using the Web interface.
Since the 500767-2110 is a Transceiver, it may be set as a Transmitter (TX) or
Receiver (RX). To set the unit as a TX, setDip Switch Pin #1 to the DOWN position.
The 4-Pin Dip Switch is located on the front panel as shown below.
2.1.2 TX Media Page
To connect into the TX, you may open a Web browser and type its IP address.
Once connected, the Media page opens. This page contains both the video and
audio settings. See example below:

2.1.5 TX Settings Page
The Settings page allows the user to configure both the network and the RS232
settings (RS232 is for future use). Additionally, you may load the factory
configuration by clicking on the Reset button while the Reboot button will reboot
the unit. Note that performinga Reset will overwrite the unit settings and reset
them to their factory default, while performing a Reboot will interrupt any
active connection.

Firmware Upgrade
The 500767-2110 comes with the firmware pre-installed, please check the
MuxLab Web site to verify if a newer version is available. You may go to our
support software/firmware page of our Web site to download the required files:
https://muxlab.com/support?section=software-and-firmware
Important Note: Use the 1G Port (port: Console LAN) to upgrade the unit
Firmware.
The 500767-2110 TX has both an FPGA and MCO (Micro-Controller Unit), and
each has its own firmware. The user may upgrade the FPGA and MCU firmware
from this page as follows:
1. Download the upgrade 500767-2110 firmware file (which includes the
FPGA and MCU code) from the MuxLab website (found under the
Support Software/Firmware page).
2. Go to the Setting page on the unit Web interface.
3. In the Upgrade Firmware section press on the “Browse” button and
locate and select the file you downloaded, and click on the “Chose File”
button. It may take 30 seconds or more to install the new version. Allow
the process to complete without interruption.
Network Settings (TX)
The user may set the network parameters of the 500767-2110 TX for the two (2)
10G Media/Data ports (ports: Media 1 & Media 2 is installed) and the one (1) 1G
Management/Control port (port: Console LAN), including enabling or disabling
DHCP, setting a static IP Address, Netmask Address, and Gateway Address,
and then pressing on “Apply”.
The 500767-2110 TX default IP addresses are set to DHCP. If no DHCP server
is available on your network the TX will default to the following static IP
Addresses:
•1G Management/Control port (Console LAN): 192.168.168.64
•Media/Data 1 port (Media 1): 192.168.168.65
•Media/Data 2 port (Media 2): 192.168.168.66

3G-SDI ST2110 Over IP Gateway Converter Operation Manual

Note: If the user changes the static IP addresses from their default values, then
the user defined static IP Addresses will be used when do DHCP server is
present. However, if the unit is Factory Reset then the default static IP Addresses
above will apply.
Factory Reset
The user may perform a factory reset, by pressing on the “Reset” button. This will
return the unit to the original MuxLab factory settings, and all user settings and
data will be lost. Allow the process to complete without interruption.
Reboot
The user may reboot the unit (equivalent to a power cycle), by pressing on the
“Reboot” button. This will temporarily interrupt normal operation and the unit
connection. Allow the process to complete without interruption.
Logs
The user may get logs for his unit by pressing on the “Download” button. This
may help identify the source of a possible issue you may be having, or to simply
get info on the unit operation.

2.1.6 Configuring the 500767-2110 as a RX
The following will explain how to configure the 500767-2110 as a RX from the Web
interface.
Since the 500767-2110 is a Transceiver, it may be set as a Transmitter (TX) or
Receiver (RX). To set the unit as a RX, set Dip Switch Pin #1 to the UP position.
The 4-Pin Dip Switch is located on the front panel as shown below.
2.1.7 RX Media Page
To connect into the RX, you may open a Web browser and type its IP address.
Once connected, the Media page appears. This page contains the main settings
to properly receive audio, video and ANC data signals from the 500767-2110 TX.
There are different ways of configuring the unit: Manual SDP and NMOS.
Additionally, when using Manual configuration, the Media settings can be
either ANC Data or Manual.
The following example shows settings for Manual input type and ANC Data Media
Settings.
