SMPTE 2110
SMPTE 2110 is a suite of standards from the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) that describes how to send digital media over an IP network.[1]
SMPTE 2110 is intended to be used within broadcast production and distribution facilities where quality and flexibility are more important than bandwidth efficiency.[2]
SMPTE 2110 is specified in several parts:[3]
- ST 2110-10 - System architecture and synchronization: essences, RTP, SIP and PTP.
- ST 2110-20 - Uncompressed video transport, based on SMPTE 2022-6
- ST 2110-21 - Traffic shaping and network delivery timing
- ST 2110-30 - Audio transport, based on AES67[4]
- ST 2110-31 - Transport of AES3 formatted audio
- ST 2110-40 - Transport of ancillary data
History
SMPTE 2110 was based on the TR-03[5] and TR-04[6] work published by the Video Services Forum on 12 November 2015. The first four parts of SMPTE 2110, -10, -20, -21 and -30, were published by SMPTE on 27 November 2017.
ST 2110-10: System architecture and synchronization
There are several important features of ST 2110-10: [7]
- Individual audio, video and ancillary data tracks or clips are carried as separate individual streams. These streams are referred to as "essences. A 5.1 JPEG mp4 clip would have 9 essences: a video essence, 6 separate audio essences, and two close caption essences, English and Chinese.
- Real Time Transport (RTP) is used to transmit streaming essences.
- Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is used to manage the connection and distribution of RTP streams including IP multicast one to many distribution.
- Precision Time Protocol (PTP) provides global micro second accuracy timing of all essences. Synchronization is based on SMPTE 2059.
ST 2110-21 Transmission timing
SMPTE 2110-21 defines three classes of devices based on their transmission timing behavior. NL senders transmit at a constant bit rate. N senders may suspend transmission during the vertical blanking interval. W senders are intended to support software implementations of 2110 and adhere to less rigorous transmission timing requirements. A type W receiver should be able to receive from any type of sender.[8]
