Important Note:
The Xantech Premium Video over IP (VIP) platform distributes HDMI video over 1GB Managed network hardware.
It is advised that Xantech VIP products are connected on an independent network switch to prevent unnecessary
interference, or reduction in signal performance due to the bandwidth requirements of other network products.
Please read the full product manual (available to download online at www.xantech.com) and ensure that the
network switch is congured correctly prior to connecting any Xantech VIP products. Failure to do so will result in
problems with conguration of the system and/or video performance.
