5.29Multicasting

 

In addition to a 1:1 connection between an encoder and a single receiver (unicast), the

 

VideoJet X10 can enable multiple receivers to receive the video signal from an encoder

 

simultaneously. The unit either duplicates the data stream itself and then distributes it to

 

multiple receivers (multi-unicast) or it sends a single data stream to the network, where the

 

data stream is simultaneously distributed to multiple receivers in a defined group (multicast).

 

You can enter a dedicated multicast address and port for each stream. You can switch

 

between the streams by clicking the appropriate tabs.

NOTICE!

Multicast operation requires a multicast-enabled network that uses the UDP and the Internet

Group Management IGMP protocols. Other group management protocols are not supported.

The TCP protocol does not support multicast connections.

 

 

 

 

A special IP address (class D address) must be configured for multicast operation in a

 

multicast-enabled network.

 

The network must support group IP addresses and the Internet Group Management Protocol

 

(IGMP V2). The address range is from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.

 

The multicast address can be the same for multiple streams. However, it will be necessary to

 

use a different port in each case so that multiple data streams are not sent simultaneously

 

using the same port and multicast address.

NOTICE!

The settings must be made individually for each stream.
