  • Page 4: Introduction

    Visionary Solutions products as an alternative to conventional distribution systems. PacketAV E5200/D5200 is nothing short of a paradigm shift for networked AV. True convergence is finally here; a single platform to support audio and Video over IP. Integrate 4K UHD video over IP into your audio network and bypass the constraints of traditional switch matrix systems by harnessing the flexibility and scalability of converged IP networks.

  • Page 5: Network Requirements

    Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a system that uses an PoE Ethernet switch as a power source to provide both electrical power and data over a single cable to devices on a network, such as the E5200/D5200 devices. This reduces the number of cables and power supplies that are required to power the devices in the network.

  • Page 6: Choosing A N Ethernet Switch

    1. Enable IGMP querying and snooping (set IGMP Version to IGMP V2 if the switch is capable). To enable the transmission of a source to multiple destinations, E5200/D5200 devices make use of multicast. The default behavior of a layer-2 switch is to broadcast those packets, which means that every packet will be transmitted to all possible destinations.

  • Page 7: Implementation Considerations

    ONSIDERATIONS E5200/D5200 devices can be installed on a physically separate network or converged onto an existing GbE network. When implementing, it is important to decide at the earliest stages of planning if the system will be integrated into the rest of the network or if it will reside on a dedicated AV network.

  • Page 9: Installing O N A Dedicated Network

    EDICATED ETWORK Figure 2 illustrates how E5200/D5200 endpoints can be installed on a dedicated network. A dedicated network is recommended for transmitting AV over IP. We offer various models of preconfigured switches for resale to our partners. These switches are shipped pre-configured for AV over IP from the factory.

    Installation and Connections (System Examples) OURCE ISPLAY In this basic installation scenario, sending video from a single source to a single display, a single encoder and decoder (point-to- point) can be linked directly together or over a network. If linked directly, the CAT 5e (or better) cable linking the devices should not run more than 100m (328ft).

  • Page 12: Many Sources T O Many Displays

    Installation and Connections (System Examples) OURCES ISPLAYS Sending video from multiple sources to multiple displays requires a network switch. Multiple encoders can be linked to multiple decoders (multipoint-to-multipoint) over a network. The many encoders to many displays’ configuration allow almost any number of sources and displays.

    To configure the units, you must access the web interface of each encoder and decoder using a computer. In order to communicate with the E5200/D5200 endpoints, the devices must be on the same subnet as your computer. You may need to change the computer’s network settings to accomplish this.
  • Page 15 Method 1: If there is a DHCP server on the network, accept Obtain an IP address automatically (the default). The computer will be automatically assigned a unique IP address by the DHCP server on the same subnet, allowing communication with the E5200/D5200 endpoints. •...

    Native AES67 Audio Capabilities Overview The Visionary E/D5200 AV-over-IP endpoints are equipped with native AES67 audio capabilities, providing high-quality, synchronized audio transmission over IP networks. AES67 is an open standard for audio over IP and Ethernet interoperability, facilitating seamless integration between devices from different manufacturers. This feature allows for seamless integration with professional audio systems and ensures compatibility with other AES67-compliant devices.

  • Page 26: Ideo All

    Decoder Options IDEO Multiple decoders can be grouped together to create a video wall. Setup involves assigning each decoder to its position in the video wall. The decoders create a video wall by scaling the video content to a size that matches the full video wall. When video walls are square (same number of rows and columns), the content will be scaled appropriately because the aspect ratio is maintained.

  • Page 27: Edid

    The EDID describes the formats for audio and video that an HDMI sync can process. The source device uses this information to determine the audio and video format that is output. The source gets its EDID from the encoder. The E5200 encoder is the only device that is presenting an EDID to the source.
