IP-Logic Devices
The ZIG-IPPRO-RX, ZIG-IPPRO-TX, and Essentials are
part of Zigen’s IP-Logic Ecosystem for AVoIP. The ZIG-
IPPRO-TX (Encoder) converts video and audio sources
to a streaming packet format suitable for network
transmission. The ZIG-IPPRO-RX (Decoder) accepts
the video and audio streams and converts it back to
the original source format. Essentials is the control
server to manage all parametric controls of IP-Logic
devices.
The ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX units can only be managed using
the Essentials Control Server. Essentials features a
GUI-based WebServer called ZigNet. ZigNet can be
accessed using a computer’s web browser and
entering Essential’s hostname “ipessentials.local” or
its IP Address on the browser’s url field. Refer to
Essentials Quick Start Guide for more information.
ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX Connections
The ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX units should be connected prior
to applying power to the system. The use of
professional grade cables is highly desired for
successful deployment of IP-Logic. An example is the
use of shielded CAT6a or better network cables for
10G BaseT. When viewing UHD 60p 4:4:4 or UHD 60p
HDR 4:2:2, Zigen highly recommends the use of 4K
Premium certified HDMI cables. Zigen offers these
premium certified cables in varying lengths from 3
meters to 9 meters.

SDVoE and AES67 Connection
ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX units utilizes 10GbE for network
connectivity. Connect either a Fiber Optic or copper
10G Base-T (IEEE 802.3an-2006) to a 10GbE managed
switch. The Optical SFP+ is the default port (SFP+
Fiber Module is sold separately). Unlike competing
products, IP Logic devices broadcast SDVoE and
AES67 packets over the same 10GbE infrastructure to
minimize the amount of required network devices.
1GbE Connection
ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX units are equipped with a 1GBase-
T Ethernet port to serve as a “Virtual Switch”. This
virtual switch flows through the 10Gbps VLAN and
is designed to extend a 1GBase-T Ethernet port
between TX and RX. This interface allows additional
hosts to be connected to the 10Gbps network.
HDMI Connection
ZIG-IPPRO-TX has an HDMI input for connecting to
video sources such as BlueRay or Cable Set Top Boxes.
The ZIG-IPPRO-RX has an HDMI output for connecting
to display devices such as TVs or Projectors. Both
HDMI 2.0B ports support HDCP 1.4, 2.2, or 2.3.
RS-232 Connection
A bidirectional RS-232 connection is featured
supporting baud rates from
2,400 – 115,200 baud. Flow
control is not supported.
The pin out of the RS-232
port is as follows:
IR Connection
Zigen recommends the use of the included IR
Receiver and IR Emitter. Using third party devices
may not be compatible with the ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX.
The IR Input Plug can be connected to an IR Receiver
(3-pin Jack). The IR Input can also be connected to an
output of a 3rd party Control System (2-pin Jack).
The IR Output (2-pin Plug) can be connected to an IR
Emitter or Control System. The pin out for the IR
connectors are as follows:
USB Connection
The USB port of the ZIG-IPPRO-TX serves as the Local
Extender (LEX) port using a USB type-B connector.
This port is typically connected to a USB host such as
a computer. The USB port of the ZIG-IPPRO-RX serves
as the Remote Extender (REX) port which contains a
hub with dual USB type-A connectors. These
connectors are usually connected to USB client
devices such as keyboards, mice, or flash drives.
Balanced/Unbalanced Analog Audio
The ZIG-IPPRO-TX has Left/Right Balanced or
Unbalanced Audio which can be connected to an
Audio/Video Receiver (AVR), Audio Processor, or
Mixer. The audio source format must be 2-Channel
LPCM and can be selected from: Local HDMI Input,
AES67 Codec, ZIG-IPPRO-RX audio sources including:
Audio Return Channel (ARC), Balanced/Unbalanced
Analog Audio In, or TOSLINK In.
Power over Ethernet (POE)
The 10GBase-T copper connections for ZIP-IPPRO
RX/TX are POE compliant (30W IEEE802.3at Type 2
PoE+). Using POE eliminates the need of using an
external Power Supply.
System Connection
IP Logic devices are SDVOE and AES67 compliant devices. Internet Protocol (IP) is the transmission medium for
extending Audio, Video, and miscellaneous control signals such as serial RS-232, USB, and IR. ZIG-IPPRO RX/TX
requires an Essentials control server and managed 10GbE network switches for routing. Zigen Corporation is a
partner with Netgear to provide complete networking solutions. Contact Zigen for a list of alternate network switch
manufacturers. Follow the diagram below for a typical IP Logic system connection.
