Carrier-Grade Media over IP Transport

The Evertz 7890MG-8-10GE2 Universal Media over IP Gateway forms an essential bridge between traditional SDI video infrastructure and high-capacity IP transport networks. Equipped to process up to 8 auto-sensing bi-directional SDI/ASI ports alongside 2 Gigabit/10-Gigabit Ethernet access ports, this card delivers ultra-low latency encapsulation for broadcast contribution, remote production, and inter-facility links. By leveraging standardized SMPTE ST 2022-2 and ST 2022-6 protocols, it guarantees full interoperability across modern IP routing ecosystems.

Hitless Redundancy and Mission-Critical Resilience

Designed to satisfy demanding Service Level Agreements (SLAs), the 7890MG-8-10GE2 features dual 10GE trunk interfaces for complete 1+1 redundant path transport. Each individual video port incorporates independent hitless protection switching, allowing the gateway to automatically seamlessly rebuild lost packets or transition between primary and backup paths without dropping a single frame. Signal integrity is further enhanced by built-in automatic input equalization, stabilizing 3G-SDI runs over coaxial cable before IP packetization.

Advanced Multi-Service Integration and Scalability

Beyond standard video transport, up to 4 access ports can integrate directly with Evertz Advanced Transport Platform (ATP) equipment, expanding capabilities to carry AES audio, MADI, serial data, and GPIO over the same IP pipe. The module fits into a compact 2-slot footprint within Evertz 7800 series chassis, making it ideal for space-constrained mobile production units or high-density facility racks. Engineering teams maintain real-time oversight of system health, optical power levels, and stream statuses via built-in web management or centralized VistaLINK SNMP monitoring.
