Introduction
The H.264 IP encoder (NEX-E200) and decoder (NEX-D200) can work
together to provide complete end-to-end streaming systems. Video, audio
and RS232 signals can be routed together or separately throughout the
matrix system. They can also function video wall up to the dimensions of 16 x
16 with input and output HDMI resolutions supported up to 1920 x
1080@60Hz.
They can also be powered by compatible power source equipment (e.g. PoE
Ethernet switch) through PoE, eliminating the need for a nearby power outlet.
They provide simple, flexible control options, including RS232, IP control box
(NEX-MC10), PC configurator (PF-IP Console), PF-I P To u c h and PF-IP
Upgrade (for firmware upgrade). The decoder also features CEC function to
realize power on and off control on displays. They offer solutions for
conference rooms, shopping malls, hotels, monitoring centers, schools and
corporate training environments, etc.
Features
Streams HDMI signal over IP networks.
Encoder supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080@60Hz.
Decoder offers auto scaler with output resolutions supported from
480p@60Hz to 1920 x 1080@60Hz scaling based on the EDID of
display.
Able to output two IP streams.
One large IP stream supports streaming resolution from
480p@60Hz to 1920 x 1080@60Hz to view a video on the decoder
side.
The other small one supports streaming resolution 352x288@5Hz
to easily preview a video on a third party device (e.g. tablet).

Note:
•Before the installation, disconnect the power supplies from all the devices.
•If the switch doesn’t support PoE function or is unable to provide enough
power, connect encoder and decoder to power supplies.

Device Control
The encoder and decoder allow you to use PC configurator, PF-IP Touch and
IP control box for controlling them. This section briefly introduces how to
route the video from source to the display using these tools. By default, audio,
video and RS232 signals are routed together. For more information, see their
guides.
The following tables describes how audio, video and RS232 signals are
routed using different tools.
Control Tools

Both of the following routing policies are available.
Route audio, video and RS232 signals together.
Route audio
, video and RS232 signals
separately via API commands from IP control
box.
Note: When audio, video and RS232 signals are routed separately via API
commands from IP control box, they can be routed together with other
operation tools.
