The zRAMP Video-over-IP server accepts Zixi transport protocol from JVC cameras and Zixi ONAIR iOS/Android app.
Zixi protocol utilizes Forward Error Correction (FEC), Repeat Request (ARQ) and Adaptive Bit Rate (ABR) to
compensate for up to 30-40% of packet loss due to network congestion, limited bandwidth and excessive jitter.
The zRAMP outputs UDP, RTP, RTP+SMPTE FEC and RTMP streams to hardware/software decoders, CDNs (Facebook,
YouTube etc.) and SW video switchers (ProHD Studio, vMix).
Zixi ONAIR app
The zRAMP is a Network Attached Appliance and is controlled/operated via browser from another PC or smart device
on the same network or via WAN / Internet. Recommended browsers: Chrome, Mozilla Firefox.
(Please, do not connect a monitor to the DisplayPort, only Linux login will be displayed.)
zRAMP login:
Setup PC network adapter: IP = 192.168.1.77 (or similar), Netmask = 255.255.255.0
Launch Chrome browser, type http://192.168.1.7:8080, Login = admin Password = jvc1234
192.168.1.7
Connection via WAN / Internet
In most cases, the zRAMP would be connected to the Internet via router/firewall gateway.
The following ports need to be forwarded to the zRAMP local IP address:
UDP 2088
TCP 8080
TCP 7777
TCP 4500
TCP 22

Summary of Contents for JVC Zixi zRAMP-4

  • Page 1 Quick Setup Guide The zRAMP Video-over-IP server accepts Zixi transport protocol from JVC cameras and Zixi ONAIR iOS/Android app. Zixi protocol utilizes Forward Error Correction (FEC), Repeat Request (ARQ) and Adaptive Bit Rate (ABR) to compensate for up to 30-40% of packet loss due to network congestion, limited bandwidth and excessive jitter.
  • Page 2 The JVC camera Streaming Server settings should be matched with the Stream ID on the zRAMP. Camera settings: Menu – System – Network – Settings – Live streaming – Server – Streaming Server zRAMP settings: Inputs - New Input – Push Latency is always fixed and selected in the camera settings depending on the quality of connection: Camera Settings Latency Packet Loss Tolerance Algorithm Recommended for: 500 ms FEC, ARQ, ABR Bi-directional conversation 900 ms Medium 4 sec ARQ, ABR Event coverage 40-50% High 10 sec ARQ, ABR JVC Camera settings zRAMP settings zRAMP IP address Stream ID and Password settings on the camera Streaming Server and zRAMP input should be identical.
  • Page 3 The zRAMP software is based on the BR-800 ProHD Broadcaster. Both IP Video servers support the same Zixi protocol with the same packet loss compensation. The amount and supported protocols for inputs/outputs and features are compared in the following table: zRAMP-2/4 BR-800 ProHD Broadcaster Inputs Zixi Push from JVC / ProHD cameras and encoders 2/4* Zixi ONAIR App for iOS/Android Zixi Feeder for Win/OSX/Linux Zixi Pull from another server MPEG-TS over UDP Unlimited MPEG-TS over RTP with SMPTE-2022 From any source RTMP pull from CDNs and/or other sources RTMP push RTMPS RTSP input Pre-recorded TS files from local HDD * zRAMP-2 features two inputs, zRAMP-4 - four inputs Outputs Zixi TS Push to another server Zixi TS Pull from BR-DE900 or Return Video decoder...
