FG1058-540 Input board
FG1058-550 Output board
Enova DGX 8
Enova DGX 8 enclosures are built to hold up to four DGX HDMI Boards with four inputs or outputs per
board. Each enclosure holds a maximum of two input and two output boards, accommodating connector
configurations up to a maximum of 8x8, as well as three subsets (i.e., 4x4, 4x8, or 8x4).
Enova DGX 16
Enova DGX 16 enclosures are built to hold up to eight DGX HDMI Boards with four inputs or outputs
per board. Each enclosure holds a maximum of four input and four output boards, accommodating
connector configurations up to a maximum of 16x16, as well as subsets (e.g., 16x8 or 4x12).
Enova DGX 32
Enova DGX 32 enclosures are built to hold up to sixteen DGX HDMI Boards with four inputs or outputs
per board. Each enclosure holds a maximum of eight input and eight output boards, accommodating
connector configurations up to a maximum of 32x32, as well as subsets in increments of four (e.g.,
12x20 or 24x8).
Signal Routing
DGX HDMI Input Boards route signals to DGX HDMI Output Boards or to any other type of Enova
DGX Output Boards. HDMI Output Boards can also accept signals from all of the other types of
Enova DGX Boards. When routing signals between different board types, the Enova DGX Switcher
automatically converts the signal format to match the output board.
Whenever HDMI Input Boards are used with DGX SC Optical Output Boards, the signals are converted
to fiber and then converted by a DGX Receiver before being sent to the destination. Note that
DGX SC Optical boards can be used for non-HDCP signals but do not support HDCP; when HDCP
protected video signals are routed to them, the display provides a dark red image to indicate the
authentication process failed.
The HDMI connectors are designed to route high-resolution HDMI or DVI signals with or without
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). DVI signals must be single link DVI-D and require
the use of a cable adapter. Destinations with DVI-I or single-link DVI-D connectors are supported.
