Overview of Functions

Network Video Receiver with Quad View
The VIP XD is an ultra-compact network video receiver for simultaneous reception of up to
four video streams. It is primarily designed for decoding video data after transfer over an IP
network and for transmitting control data. When connected to a monitor and used in
conjunction with compatible MPEG-4 video servers, the VIP XD is ideally suited for making
existing analog CCTV systems IP-compatible.
The VIP XD is small enough to be easily integrated into small housings as well. The use of
existing networks means that integration with CCTV systems or local networks can be
achieved quickly and easily.
Two units, for example a VIP X1600 as a sender and a VIP XD as a receiver, can create a
standalone system for data transfer without a PC. Video images from a single sender can be
received simultaneously on multiple receivers. A VIP XD receiver can simultaneously receive
up to four video streams from one or more compatible senders.
The audio version of the VIP XD also allows the transmission of audio signals from and to
compatible units.
Sender
Compatible hardware encoders can be used as senders, for example VIP X1, VIP X1600 or
VideoJet X40. Computers with installed VIDOS software are suitable for convenient
connection of the required senders to the respective receivers.
Multicast
In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables simultaneous real-time video
transmission to multiple receivers. The UDP and IGMP V2 protocols must be implemented on
the network for this function.
Encryption
The VIP XD offers a variety of options for protection against unauthorized reading. Web
browser connections can be protected using HTTPS. You can protect the control channels via
the SSL encryption protocol. With an additional license, the user data itself can be encrypted.
Configuration
The VIP XD can be configured with a Web browser on the local network (Intranet) or via the
Internet. Alternatively, you can perform the configuration using the Configuration Manager
program, which is contained on the product CD included in the scope of delivery.
In the same way, firmware updates and fast loading of device configurations are possible.
