Abstract
Once again, our ability to capture and display images has leap-frogged our ability to transport, control, and monitor them. New ultrahigh-definition (UHD) formats, and high frame rates require increasing data rates in image transport. Payload rates approaching 200 Gbits/sec are required to support UHDTV2 image structures at 120 Hz progressive frame rate. Building on the concepts presented in the paper “1080p50/60, 4K and Beyond: Future Proofing the Core Infrastructure to Manage the Bandwidth Explosion,” presented at the UHDTV: Ultra-High Definition Imaging Session of the SMPTE 2012 Annual Technical Conference, this paper introduces a hierarchical approach to increased serial digital interface (SDI) data rates, allowing affordable steps toward extended data rates, including those needed for UHDTV2. It describes progress in technical standards and technology development since the 2012 conference, for single-link and multilink SDI operating at 6 Gbits/sec, 12 Gbits/sec, and 24 Gbits/sec using protocols that enable easy compatibility between data rates. It shows the performance that can be expected at these data rates, over copper and optical interfaces, and introduces coding concepts to improve the reliability of serial video.

His responsibilities include technology strategy, product definition, and international standardization for both the broadcast and datacom/telecom markets served by Semtech GPG. As a Fellow and an active member of SMPTE, he is the author of several SMPTE Standards and actively contributes to the development of realtime streaming media interfaces for video and D-Cinema production. Hudson currently chairs the 32NF40 Working Group on SDI Interfaces and the 32NF70 6G SDI Drafting group.
Edward Frlan
bio
Edward Frlan is a senior system architect within the Gennum Products Group of Semtech Corp., responsible for the definition of next-generation datacom and video PHY products. He is also the Optical Internetworking Forum's (OIF's) Physical and Link Layer (PLL) Interoperability Working Group chair and has contributed to the development of the CEI-28G-VSR Implementation Agreement. Frlan joined the Gennum Products Group as a hardware architect within the Metro Ethernet Networks division of Ciena where he was responsible for the system architecture and synchronization aspects of various line cards (including Carrier Ethernet, SONET, OTN and Broadcast Video). He actively participates in the OIF PLL working group and holds a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Carleton University.
