DM NVX™ 4K60 4:4:4 HDR Network AV Encoders/Decoders

Introduction

Crestron® DM NVX™ encoders/decoders transport ultra high-definition 4K video with
60 Hz frame rates and 4:4:4 color sampling over standard Gigabit Ethernet. Support for
High Dynamic Range (HDR) video and HDCP 2.2 ensures high picture quality and
compatibility with a variety of media sources. Using JPEG 2000 compression and
encoding, the DM NVX encoders/decoders achieve a low end-to-end latency of 30 ms
at 60 fps. The DM NVX encoders/decoders accept SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
transceiver modules (Crestron SFP-1G Series), which support multimode and
single-mode fiber.
DM NVX devices consist of the DM-NVX-350 and DM-NVX-351 stand-alone endpoints
and the DM-NVX-350C and DM-NVX-351C cards. The cards are designed
to occupy the DMF-CI-8 card chassis. The DM-NVX-351 and DM-NVX-351C provide
the same functionality as the DM-NVX-350 and DM-NVX-350C with the addition of
surround sound to stereo downmixing.
This manual provides information about the following:
Physical description of the connectors, controls, and indicators on
DM NVX devices
Configuration of some of the capabilities of DM NVX devices, for example,
encoding and decoding functionality
HDCP 2.2 compliance
IGMP snooping
Troubleshooting guidelines
In addition, information about device discovery of a DM NVX device using Crestron
Toolbox™ software is provided in the appendix of this manual. For installation
information, refer to the DM-NVX-350/DM-NVX-351 DO Guide (Doc. 7799) and the
DM-NVX-350C/DM-NVX-351C DO Guide (Doc. 7975). For information about designing
a DM NVX system, refer to the DM NVX System Design Guide (Doc. 7977).

PWR: Bicolor green/amber LED, indicates operating power supplied via the power
pack or injector, turns amber while booting and green when operating
SETUP: Push button to display the IP address or to set the operating mode
(transmitter or receiver). Red LED indicates that the SETUP button is pressed and times out automatically.
NOTE: When the SETUP button is pressed for 10 seconds, a message appears on the
display stating that the button must be pressed again to change the operating mode. Pressing the button a second time changes the operating mode from a receiver to a transmitter or from a transmitter to a receiver and reboots the device.
The SETUP button can be used to change the operating mode only if Device Mode Lock on the Device page is set to Disabled. For additional information, refer to “
Device Mode Lock” on page 30.
RESET: Recessed push button for hardware reset
INPUT SEL: Push button for manual input selection and two bicolor green/amber
LEDs. Green LED indicates that the corresponding input is selected. Amber LED indicates that the corresponding input is detected but is not selected.

Status Page – DM XiO Director Network Appliance Details

Encoding and Decoding Functionality

A DM NVX device can be configured to function as a network AV encoder (transmitter)
or decoder (receiver):
As an encoder, a DM NVX device allows a laptop computer, camera, or other
media source to be connected via an HDMI cable and then transmitted over the network.
As a decoder, a DM NVX device receives the signal from a DM NVX encoder and
feeds the signal to a display device via the HDMI output. A DM NVX decoder can switch streams among multiple DM NVX encoders on the network alongside locally connected HDMI sources.
To set the operating mode of a DM NVX device as a transmitter or receiver, use the web
interface or SIMPL Windows as discussed in the following sections.
NOTE: For a DM NVX stand-alone endpoint, the SETUP button can also be used to set
the operating mode as a transmitter or receiver. For additional information, refer to the
description of the SETUP button on page
For a DM NVX card, the front panel of the DMF-CI-8 chassis can be used to set the
operating mode. For additional information, refer to the DMF-CI-8 Supplemental Guide
(Doc. 7861).
