AJA H262 Bridge Live HD-Ultra HD Multi-Channel Live Video
Congratulations!
AJA BRIDGE LIVE facilitates the highest quality conversion between SDI and
various stream types for HD and UltraHD. For detailed installation and
configuration instructions please refer to the AJA website for the latest
version of your BRIDGE LIVE manual: https://www.aja.com/products/bridge-live
What’s in the Box?
- BRIDGE LIVE Quick Start Guide, BRIDGE LIVE appliance including rack rails, pre-installed rack-ears and two power cables.
Setup
- For initial setup BRIDGE LIVE will need to be accessed locally via customer-supplied keyboard, mouse and monitor (via Display Port).
- Once BRIDGE LIVE has been unpacked and safely racked-mounted, cables and peripherals can be added; 10GigE cables for network connectivity, SDI cables for baseband audio/video I/O, USB keyboard, USB mouse, monitor (via Display Port), and dual power cables for redundant power supplies.
Cabling Guide:
As viewed from the rear of the chassis, 10GigE Port 01 is on the left, and
10GigE Port 02 on the right. All four SDI spigots can be used simultaneously
for HD I/O with 3G-SDI. For UltraHD via 12G-SDI, any of the SDI connections
can be used as a single 12G-SDI Input or Output for UltraHD, but in doing so
the other three SDI connections will not be available for video I/O.
Power Up & login:
Once you have cabled up the system, power on BRIDGE LIVE (front right button).
At the login screen enter the systems specific Admin credentials as shown
