Evertz 7880DM4-LB-IP

The Evertz 7880DM4-LB-IP connector is used to monitor and control an Evertz chassis containing different Evertz 7700/7800 series cards.

About

The chassis must include an Evertz 7800-FC card in order to be functional. Data about the location of other cards is polled from this card. The Evertz 7800-FC is placed in slot 1; other cards are inserted into slots 2 to 15. A DVE will be created for each (supported) card. Data is polled via SNMP and HTTP. Traps are supported to reduce the amount of polling. When a trap is received, the corresponding parameter is polled again to update its value.
