CHAPTER 1 Product Introductions
General Description
NDS3558A network encoder is an encoding device for IP broadcasting. The signals source could
be from STB, PC, TV and etc. It can transfer the live program through the internet/LAN, and the
output signals are to be received by PC, phone and other mobile terminals. Dexin NDS3558A lets
you access your IP STB, PC or TV anywhere to watch your programs. Whether you are in your
house or across the globe, you'll never miss a game or your favorite show.
The device supports HDMI/YPbPr/S-Video/AV/USB input and encodes in MPEG 4 AVC/H.264
format, after that, it gives the IP signal output over UDP (multicast/Unicast), RTP/RTSP, HTTP,
HLS.
The USB port is designed to record and save the encoded video (TS) in ts files in the USB Keys or
Hard Disks and play it back through IP out to increase your content options.

CHAPTER 2 Safety Instruction and Installations
Safety Instructions
WARNING: Hot plug is not allowed since it may cause system halted.
To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose the device to rain or moisture.
The network encoder is powered with a voltage of 12V DC. The power supply
voltage must not exceed the recommended voltage, which otherwise may cause
irreparable damage to the device and the invalidation of the warranty. Therefore:
Do not replace power supply with a voltage greater than 12V DC.
Do not connect the device to the power if the power cord is damaged.
Do not plug the device into mains supply until all cables have been connected
correctly.
Do not cut the cord.
Avoid placing the device next to central heating components and in areas of high
humidity.
Do not cover the device with elements that obstruct the ventilation slots.
If the network encoder has been kept in cold conditions for a long time, keep it in a
warm room minimum 2 hours before plugging into the mains.
Mount the device in vertical position with the connectors located on the top side.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
