Overview
The SMPTE ST 2081 suite of documents defines the mapping of various source image formats onto a singlelink, dual-link and quad-link serial digital interface operating at a nominal rate of 6 Gb/s. This informative "overview" describes the documents in the SMPTE ST 2081 suite.
The SMPTE ST 2081 series specify a common virtual interface that is carried on both electrical and optical physical interfaces which are also defined in the document suite.
The diagram of Figure 1 illustrates a simplified 'Image mapping data flow' overview for the 6G-SDI profile as defined by the SMPTE ST 2081 document suite. The individual roadmaps of the SMPTE ST 2081 standards include full details of reference standards.
