Introduction
NetUP Streamer HDMI 8x is an all-in-one device, that integrates encoding, (MPEG-4/AVC H.264)
multiplexing and modulation functions in a 1U case. It is capable of converting 8 HDMI signals and 1
ASI input to 2 DVB-T RF outputs in the frequency range of 30~999MHz. It is also equipped with 2 ASI
ports and an IP port. The source signal may come from a satellite receiver, closed-circuit television
camera, etc. The device’s output can be received by DVB-T standard TVs or DVB-T STBs.
This device can be used for advertising or monitoring purposes in public places such as metro, market
halls, theatres, hotels, resorts, etc.

Installation guide
Device’s installation flow chart
Before installing and connecting the device, carefully read the environment and
grounding requirements, as well as safety instructions for the sake of your safety and for
the safety of the device
Packing list check
Check items according to packing list. Normally it should include the following items:
•NetUP Streamer HDMI 8x
•Power Cord
•HDMI cable
•ASI cable
Safety instructions
•Before installing and connecting the device make sure that the device was not damaged during
delivery.
•Install the device in an appropriate place. The device is designed to work in a clean and dry room.
It must be operated and maintained free of dust.
•Before switching on the device make sure that it is adjusted to the mains voltage you intend to
use. Make sure that you keep within the specifications – AC 100V-220V±10%, 50/60Hz.
•Check that all the cables are connected properly. Connect cables only to a device that is turned
off.

WEB NMS Operation
In addition to the buttons on the front panel, you can use the web interface to control NetUP
Streamer HDMI 8x.
Login
Connect a personal computer and the device with net cable, and use ping command to confirm they
are on the same network segment.
Make sure that the computer’s IP address is different from the device’s IP address;
otherwise, it would cause an IP conflict
The default IP address of NetUP Streamer HDMI 8x is 192.168.0.136. Thus, set the computer’s IP
address to 192.168.0.X, where X can be from 0 to 255, except 136. Open a web browser, enter the
device’s IP address in the browser address bar and press Enter. If the network is configured correctly,
you will see the login interface (Figure 1).
Enter username and password and click LOGIN to enter the web interface. Default username is
