Revision 2.3

5.4.1. Stream Control

Stream Name:

This parameter displays the

RX side IP Stream profile name.

Restart:

This control allows the user to

estart the individual RX side IP Stream.

5.4.2. Network

ARQ Enable:

This parameter allows the user to select the

RX side IP Stream IP Transport Mode: ARQ or

RTP. ARQ enables retransmissions so should normally be enabled when transmitting over the public
internet or similar lower reliability networks.

Destination IP Address:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream Network

Destination IP address. This means the IP address that the received transport stream will be output on to
the access port.

Destination UDP Port:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream Network Destination

port number. This means the IP address that the received transport stream will be output on to the access
port.

Source UDP Port:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream Network Source UDP port

number. This means the UDP port that the received transport stream will be output on to the access port.

Expected Jitter:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream Network which expected

the jitter for the WAN network.

5.4.3. ARQ

ARQ Port

: This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream ARQ port. This must match the

ARQ port on the transmitting 7890IXG or Evertz Cloudbridge.

By default, ARQ normally sends upstream

retransmission request packets on UDP port 7020. The ARQ Port setting can be changed to any valid
and non-conflicting UDP port. However, the same port number at both the encoder and the decoder
should be defined. To help bypass firewall blocking, reset this to be the same port as the media UDP
port, usually 10000.

ARQ Mode:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream ARQ mode

Auto or Manual.

Auto will attempt to pick appropriate values based on network conditions, while manual gives the user full
control over retransmission parameters. When AUTO is set, you cannot set the number of retransmits or
the round trip latency.

Number Retransmits:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream ARQ Manual Mode

maximum number of retransmissions when packet loss is detected. Higher values give more protection
but increase the latency.

Round Trip Latency:

This parameter allows the user to set the

RX side IP Stream ARQ Manual Mode

Round Trip Time, if it is known.

Target Latency:

Target Latency, specifies the total delay, in milliseconds, allotted for the request,

retransmission, and recovery process. The ARQ mechanism will attempt as many retries as possible
within this target latency time. Thus, larger target latency times increase the delay before video is output,
but allows for more chances of requesting and recovering any missing packets. The ARQ error correction
operates through the addition of a small additional buffering delay to provide enough time to request and
receive replacement for each lost packet. Target Latency gives the ARQ mechanism a target value for
determining the necessary ARQ delay. The ARQ divides the Target Latency, specified in milliseconds, by
the round-trip time to the video encoding source to determine the number of request attempts. Unless
