Encoding Module
MGW 2400 supports MGE-400 and MGE-400D encoding
modules. MGE-400 encoding modules support analog sources
while MGE-400D encoding modules support both analog and
digital sources.

Connectors Description
ANALOG AUD Connects analog audio source to MGW 2400.
DIG AUD Connects a digital audio source to MGW 2400. This
connector is only used for MGE-400D modules.
COMP.VID Connects a Composite video source to MGW 2400.
S-VIDEO Connects an S-Video Source to MGW 2400.
SDI Connects a digital video source to MGW 2400. This
connector ships only with MGE-400D encoding
modules.

Table 10: MGE-400 and 400D Encoding Module Interfaces
Note
MGE 400D encoding modules support the SMPTE 125M-1995 SDI standard.
Other SDI standards will cause the video frames to be shifted 10 lines down.
I.e. the content of the top 10 video lines is unknown and the 10 bottom lines
will not be encoded.
