1.1 Box content
Item No. 492073 - IP output module
Item No. 492074 - Auxiliary board
Item No. 492086 - SFP transceiver RJ45 - copper -
1.2 Licenses
IP output licenses need to be purchased from Triax to be able to distribute IP services through the TDX headend system. The licenses can be
ordered online with your TRIAX customer login at the TRIAX Product Registration Tool (PRT).
Required licence numbers:
Item No. - 418040 TDX IPTV out 12 service start
Item No. - 418041 TDX IPTV OUT 12 service
Licenses are activated using License handling in the Administration window. See the user guide of the TDX Headend Main Unit for more
information.
1.3 IP output module
The IP output module is an output module for transmission of digital video, audio and miscellaneous data, encapsulated within one or more
MPEG2/ DVB single program transport streams.
The TDX headend system provides the following functionality when the IP output modules have been installed:
•IP multicast streaming (UDP streaming)
•RTP option
•IGMP version 2
•SPTS including SDT, PAT, PMT, CAT
•Packet ratio of 3-7 TS packet per IP packet - ratio 3-7:1
•Max. BW 700 Mbits/s output per IP output module
•48 services on each IP output module/AUX socket
•24 services of the 48 can be encrypted with Pro:Idiom®
•Possible to change service ID (SID)
•Possible to select from IP via Link.
1.4 Module positioning
A maximum of two IP output modules, and associated auxiliary boards and SFP transceivers can be installed in a TDX headend. Dedicated
positions in the TDX headend are used.

1.8 Labels
Labels are located on the IP output module and the Auxiliary board. Information relating to configuration of the module can be written on
these labels if desired.
1.9 Network hardware configuration
The TDX headend system must be connected to a Gigabit network switch to receive and deliver IP services. The network switch must
support IGMP version 2, and contain an adequate number of ports to connect to all the Link sockets on the main and, if relevant, subunits.
•Multiple TDX headends can also
be used to deliver a greater
number of IP services .
•Each IP output module on each
TDX output headend must be
connected to the Gigabyte
network switch, via the associated
AUX 1 and/or AUX 2 RJ45/fibre
optic transceivers.
•Cat 5e shielded or better network
cables must be used.
1.10 Optional hardware
A fibre-optic transceiver can be used instead of an RJ45 SFP transceiver. This is especially relevant for pre-existing optical installations, or
for installations with high levels of interference and/or total cable lengths exceeding 100m..
The fibre-optic transceiver must be ordered seperatly.
Item No. 492087 - SFP Fiber 850nm EOLS-8512-MXX (500m)
Item No. 492088 - SFP Fiber 1310nm EOLS-1324-02XX (2km)
1.11 Software version
To support the Pro:Idiom®functionality the TDX software version 5.0 or later is required.

2. Hardware installation
2.1 Hardware installation
A maximum of two IP output modules can be installed in a TDX headend.
2.2 IP output module
•Insert the IP output module into either slot no. 3 or slot no. 6 in the lower section of the headend unit..
2.3 Auxiliary board
Insert the Auxiliary board as per the following:
•Use Auxiliary board in slot no. 2 if the IP output module is in slot no. 3.
•Use Auxiliary board in slot no. 1 if the IP output module is in slot no.
2.4 SFP transceiver
Insert the SFP transceiver in the correct AUX socket relating to slot position where the IP output module is located:
•IP output module in slot no. 6 - SFP transceiver in AUX socket 1
•IP output module in slot no. 3 - SFP transceiver in AUX socket 2.
2.5 Installing CAM / Smart card
Two Conditional Access modules (CA) can be inserted into each IP output module. Each CA module can descramble one or more services.
The services that can be provided is dependant on the provider of the CA module and smart card..
1. Insert the smart card into the CA module.
2. Insert the CA module into the IP output module.
NOTE:
Hot swapping can be used when inserting modules into or removing modules from the TDX system, i.e. there is no need to power
off the unit.
.
NOTE:
Either (or both) CA position(s) in the IP output
module can be used.
