For your convenience, the information you need to install EasyIP products is available in the smaller,

The EasyIP Ecosystem
Vaddio®EasyIP products are designed to be used together, and have limited or no compatibility with other
types of products.
nEasyIP cameras deliver video in Vaddio's proprietary EasyIP format.
nAn EasyIP Decoder or EasyIP Mixer is required to convert the cameras' output signal to an IP and/or
USB stream.
nThe decoder and mixer do not recognize other types of cameras.
nThe decoder or mixer automatically detects EasyIP cameras on its own subnet.
nCameras are not required to be on the same subnet as the device that manages them.
nEasyIP products require PoE+ power. Typically the EasyIP system is powered by a PoE+ switch.
EasyIP Cameras
EasyIP cameras may be installed anywhere on the network. They require only a PoE+ power connection.
An EasyIP Decoder or EasyIP Mixer is needed to decode the AV-over-IP signal.
EasyIP Decoder
The decoder is the central component of a basic EasyIP installation. Its functions include
nVideo – pair with up to four cameras at a time, control the active camera via web interface, and decode
the camera's AV-over-IP signal.
nAudio – connect two Vaddio microphones and a speaker.
nUSB streaming – configure for UVC-compliant or client-custom USB streaming for conferencing
applications.
EasyIP Mixer
The mixer is the central component of a full-featured EasyIP pro AV room solution. Its functions include
nVideo – pair with up to four cameras at a time, control the active camera via web interface, and decode
the camera's AV-over-IP signal.
nAudio – connect two microphones and two speakers; pair with Dante®audio products on your network.
Built-in audio mixer.
nUSB streaming – configure for UVC-compliant or client-custom USB streaming for conferencing
applications.
PoE+ Switch
A PoE+ switch simplifies installation, eliminating the need for PoE+ power injectors and placing all the
connected products on the same subnet.
