Overview Crestron DM NVX® 4K60 4:2:0 network AV encoders and decoders transport 4K60 video with 4:2:0 color sampling over standard Gigabit Ethernet. The devices function as encoders only or decoders only and include the following models: Encoder only: DM-NVX-E20 Decoders only:...
Copper Ethernet connectivity with PoE+ support (DM-NVX-D200 only) Automatic DM-NVX-E20 point-to-point connectivity with the DM-NVX-D20, DM-NVX-D200, or any DM NVX 4K60 4:4:4 product that can function as a decoder Automatic DM-NVX-D20 or DM-NVX-D200 point-to-point connectivity with the DM-NVX-E20 or DM-NVX-E10...
Encoder Functionality (DM-NVX-E20 Only) The DM-NVX-E20 encoder provides one HDMI input that enables a laptop computer, camera, or other media source to be connected via an HDMI cable and then transmitted over the network to one or many decoders. Compatible with the DM-NVX-D20, DM-NVX-D200, and other DM NVX products that can function as decoders, the DM-NVX-E20 can be used in any DM NVX network AV design.
AES67 support enables the selected audio source to be transmitted as a 2-channel AES67 audio stream while another 2-channel AES67 audio stream is received from a Crestron® DSP or other third-party device. For the DM-NVX-D20 and DM-NVX-D200, the AES67 audio stream that is received can be combined with the video signal and then output via the HDMI output and analog audio output.
For the DM-NVX-E20, automatic point-to-point connectivity enables the encoder to be connected directly to a DM-NVX-D20, DM-NVX-D200, or any DM NVX 4K60 4:4:4 product that can function as a decoder in order to stream video and audio. For the DM-NVX-D20 or DM-NVX- D200, automatic point-to-point connectivity enables the decoder to be connected directly to a DM-NVX-E20 or DM-NVX-E10 to stream video and audio.

Appendix: IGMP Snooping A DM NVX device sends IGMP join and leave messages. The network switch port that connects to a DM NVX device must be enabled with IGMPv2 or IGMPv3 snooping to prevent the switch from flooding the multicast destination address traffic to all other connected ports. The multicast destination address that is configured for the DM NVX device must be within the range of qualified addresses.
Page 145
NOTES: Do not assign reserved multicast IP addresses to a DM NVX device for streaming. For additional information, go to https://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast- addresses/multicast-addresses.txt. Multicast collision is a concern with IPv4. For example, multicast IPv4 addresses 224.8.7.6 and 229.136.7.6 translate to the same MAC address (01:00:5E:08:07:06). The following items provide recommendations for configuration of a network switch for IGMP snooping: Set the IGMP query interval to 60 seconds or 125 seconds.
