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 transmission of 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 previously analog CCTV
systems IP-compatible.
About the size and shape of a cigarette packet, it can be integrated into small
housings without difficulty if necessary. 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 X1 / VIP X2 as the transmitter and another VIP XD
as the receiver, can form a stand-alone system for data transfer without a PC.
Video images from a single transmitter can be simultaneously received on
several receivers. A VIP XD receiver can simultaneously receive up to four video
streams from one or more compatible transmitters.
Transmitter
MPEG-4 compatible hardware decoders, for example VIP X 1, VIP X 2 or
VideoJet 8008 can be used as transmitters. Computers with the VIDOS software
installed are suitable for connecting the desired transmitters to the relevant
receiver.
Multicast
In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables simultaneous,
real time transmission to multiple receivers. The prerequisite for this is that the
UDP and IGMP V2 protocols are implemented on the network.
Configuration
The VIP XD can be configured using a browser on the local network (Intranet)
or from the Internet.
Similarly, firmware updates and rapid loading of device configurations are also
possible.
