The „Input Mux Settings“ are used to assign an IP TX port to each ASI input of the U 262 Gateway.
An ASI stream can also be routed to several IP TX, so that the U 262 can also be used as an IP
splitter. To provide a better overview, the respective row and column of the output matrix will get
a red background if the mouse pointer will be shifted over it. The ASI signal can also be inverted.
Please consider that the ASI signal has to be available in packet (burst) mode.

IP setting for transmission and reception mode
Clicking on the „IP TX & IP RX“ submenu takes you to the settings for the transmission and
reception modes of the U 262. This page provides an overview of the transmission port (IP TX) of
the U 262, the general settings of the reception ports (IP RX Common Settings) and the detailed
settings of the reception ports (IP RX Channel Settings).
Figure 9: Overview of the configured transmission ports
The overview shows the configuration of the individual transmission ports. The U 262 Gateway
in the above example is equipped with 16 reception licenses, i.e. 16 ASI input streams can be
converted to 16 IP multicast groups and be distributed over the network interface. The links “TX1”
to “TX16” take you to the detailed configuration of the respective port.
The transmission ports can be activated and deactivated in this mask, specifically differentiated
according to Data A and Data B interface. If the user has a redundant network infrastructure (e.g.
bidirectional backbone), it may make sense for the data to be transmitted via both data inter-
faces.
For the general settings of the reception port, it is possible to choose between “Data A” and “Data
B” as the active reception interface.
