    Installing and Configuring Your AV Equipment Step 5: Connecting Encoders to an Input Source Having already connected the Encoder(s) to the network and made the appropriate settings changes (as described in Step 3 Step 4), you can now connect to the appropriate AV source(s). This connection from an Encoder HDMI IN port to an input source is accomplished using either an HDMI cable or DVI-I (through adapter).
  • Page 22: Switching And Scaling Options

    Installing and Configuring Your AV Equipment Switching and Scaling Options N-Series Encoders and Decoders make up a true AV matrix solution. In other words, one input can go to any or all outputs. Decoders have internal scaling capabilities. Keep the following in mind: The input of an Encoder is the video and/or audio signal going into the Encoder.
