Source note
Ethernet outputs, per-port capacity and loading capacity are recorded for the chassis fitted with 20 H_20xRJ45 sending cards (20 × 20 Gigabit outputs; the specification prints 260 million pixels for this card type and 650,000 pixels per port at 8-bit, half of that at 10-bit). The chassis is sold without cards; other sending cards give other figures (see the capacity rows).
