PHABRIX announced a V4.3 software release for its Qx and QxL hybrid IP/SDI rasterizers, adding multiple extended formats, including RGB SDI and ST 2110 IP standards support and a comprehensive 2110 IP Generation Toolset. In addition, there is a proprietary IP Signal Generation toolset and other features like ST 2110-40 ANC Generation with timecode, and auto video format detection with configurable Auto/SDP/Override feature.
Other features include 2110 Auto Video Format detection with an ‘Auto/SDP/Manual’ configuration tool, an SDI BER (Bit Error) insertion tool to help with stress-testing SDI based systems (SDI-STRESS). There is also a combined SDI/SDI-STRESS boot mode, as well as support for 12G SDI optical and coaxial 12G SFPs. Available in two platforms, the Qx and QxL have an accessible user interface and intuitive toolsets for full operational flexibility and easy migration from an SDI- to an IP-centric operation. The flexible architecture of both the Qx and QxL offers in-field license upgrades for SDI-UHD/4K, HDR as well as engineering grade data view and ANC packet inspection tools.
A factory hardware option provides RTE real time SDI eye and jitter analysis, with an optional advanced SDI-STRESS toolset. The Series supports HD/3G/6G/12G-SDI, 10G/25G IP interfaces, and HD/UHD, IP SMPTE 2022-6, SMPTE 2110-10/20/30/31/40 with ST 2022-7 and AMWA NMOS.
