Installation
System Installer must adhere to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as
possible.
Unpacking and Inspection
Each unit is shipped factory tested. Ensure all items are removed from the container prior to discarding any packing material.
Thoroughly inspect the unit for shipping damage with particular attention to connectors and controls. If there is any sign of
damage to the unit or damaged or loose connectors contact your distributor immediately. Do not put the equipment into
service if there is any indication of defect or damage.
Hardware Installations and Connections
It is highly recommended that quality cables and connectors be used for all video and audio source connections.
1. The unit is designed to be rack mounted in a standard EIA 19” rack.
2. The unit comes standard with HDMI and DIN inputs (Component and Composite video inputs). The HDIP-8000
streamer is intelligently designed to detect the video input from the video source. HDMI Connection: Connect the
HDMI cable(s) from the video source(s) into the HDMI input(s). Or, Connect the DIN Cable to the back of the
encoder as required using the DIN to DIN or DIN to breakout cable.
Repeat this step for each video source connection required.
Be sure the connections for each source are consistent with the unit’s inputs (IN1…IN8).
3. When connecting to an IP network use an IGMP capable and enabled switch. (It is highly recommended an IT
professional who is familiar with IGMP switches assists in setting up the IGMP Switch).
4. Connect the included power cord to the unit’s POWER plug.
5. Connect the power cord to an appropriately rated AC power outlet.

Private Address Ranges, IPv4
Private IPv4 addresses are addresses set aside by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) for use within networks
that will not directly communicate or not be seen by the internet. These private addresses cannot be used on the Internet or be
used to communicate with the Internet. ISP’s filter out and delete packets using private IP addresses. Any organization that
uses private IP addresses on devices that communicate with the internet must use a device that performs Network Address
Translation.
Anyone can us private addresses and they are not required to seek permission to use them. Again, networks using private IP
addresses cannot communicate directly with the internet.
There are three blocks of addresses that are set aside by IANA for use in private internets and are not publicly routable on the
global internet:
Private Class A Range:10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
Private Class B Range: 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
Private Class C Range: 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
It is important to note that only some of the 172.xx.xx.xx and the 192.xx.xx.xx address ranges are designated for private use.
The remaining addresses are public and can be routable via the global Internet.
More information regarding private addresses can be found at http://www.iana.org and https://www.arin.net.
