3. Product Overview

3.3. Electrical Connections

1 GbE LAN
The devices provide standard RJ45 connectors for
outgoing/incoming Video/Control signals. Always use
high quality Ethernet cable for connecting Encoders and
Decoders.
The Wiring of the Twisted Pair Cables
The recommended termination is based on TIA/EIA T 568 A or TIA/EIA
T 568 B standards:
Pin TIA/EIA T568 A Wire Color
1 white/green
2 green
3 white/orange
4 blue

HDMI Input and Output Ports
The devices are assembled with standard 19-pole
HDMI connectors for inputs and outputs. Special
HDMI cables can be fastened to the housing by the
nut.
RS-232 Port
The devices contain a standard RJ12 connector which is
used for RS-232 serial connection. The port can be used to
connect serial devices by using the supplied serial cables.
Please see the RS-232 Interface section for more details.
USB Ports
The USB ports allow USB extension. The Encoder is
assembled with USB mini-B type port (connecting a
computer), and the Decoder device contains two USB
1.1 and two USB 2.0 compatible A-type port. For more

3.6. VINX Device Concept
The key feature of the VINX series is the A/V signal transmission from
an Encoder to many Decoder devices. The number of the Encoder and
POWER
Decoder devices is 'limited' to 100 within a system. The video wall can
VIDEO
be expanded at a later time, e.g. building a wall with 12 Decoders and
add further 12 Decoders later. Another feature is the transmission of
USB
RS-232, USB and Infrared signals.
Unicast Mode (Point-to-Point Connection)
A Decoder is connected to an Encoder device.
Multicast Mode (Point-to-Multi point Connection)
Many Decoder devices are connected to the same Encoder.
The USB transmission is available only at one Encoder-Decoder
connection at the same time. The desired device can be activated by
the front panel button or via the built-in website.
