AVN422 User’s Manual Chapter 1 Introduction
1
Chapter 1 Introduction
Visionary Solutions' IPTV encoders can turn video from HDMI or DVI-D sources into full-screen,
full resolution, Internet Protocol (IP) digital video in real time.
The AVN422 encodes high or standard definition video in an h.264 stream (MPEG-4 Part 10/
AVC). It is used in a Media Processing Platform (MPP), a high density rack mount system. Plug a
video source directly into the blade, plug into the network via the RJ-45 connection, and stream
real-time high or standard definition video over your LAN or WAN. The MPP with AVN blades is
suitable for all applications requiring cost-effective, low bit rate, high or standard definition video
distribution over IP networks.
1.1 Features
•Modular Flexibility. The AVN422 features modular firmware architecture, which lowers the
base price by allowing the user to purchase only those features they need at the moment,
while at the same time maintaining the flexibility to upgrade in the future as requirements
change. The list of optional add-on-modules currently include 720p, 1080i (with 1080p
@24 support), 1080p @60, and Forward Error Correction (FEC).
•Superior Audio/Video Quality. h.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC) hardware compression and
Visionary Solutions’ optimized transmission technology provide a high or standard definition,
full frame rate, IP video stream. The stream can be viewed by an unlimited number of clients
on a LAN or WAN provided that bandwidth is available. Image resolutions are configurable
based upon purchased modules. The base model includes 480i SD encoding. Optional
modules allow FEC support and image resolutions to be configured up to 720p, 1080i (with
1080p @24 support) or full 1080p at 60 fields per second. The total bit rate can be configured
from 4 to 20 Mbps for HD and 2 to 10 Mbps for SD. The audio compression is either AAC (32
to 384 kbps audio encoding, average bitrate) or MPEG-1 Layer II (32 to 384 kbps audio
encoding) with up to 48 kHz sample rate.
•Forward Error Correction (FEC). For superior image quality and reliability in the most
demanding network video environments, the AVN422, with an optional FEC module,
incorporates SMPTE-2022 Pro-MPEG FEC Code of Practice # 3, Releases 1 and 2. This
allows FEC enabled receivers to monitor the stream and recover missing packets.
•Video Inputs. The AVN422 includes one HDMI input (DVI-D with optional adaptor cable) for
connecting video and audio source equipment.
•Audio Inputs. A terminal block connector provides audio inputs for Balanced and
Unbalanced connections. This allows for easy onsite connections regardless of the cabling
outputs of the audio source. The HDMI input can carry audio as well. See sections 2.1.1
AVN422 Front Panel and 6.4.2.2 Audio Input Control for additional information about
unbalanced audio inputs.

Chapter 1 Introduction AVN422 User’s Manual

•External Device Connections. The AVN422 includes a serial connection via an RJ-45
connector. This connector can be used as an RS-232 port (full duplex, no hand shaking) or
an RS-422 (full-duplex) port. These ports allow the AVN422 to interface with external devices
such as terminal emulation equipment.
•Management and Configuration. The AVN422is easy to access and configure through the
Browser Interface, and an optional AVN Control Protocol (API) is available for qualified
customers. TCP/IP, HTTP, and other Internet-related protocols are supported. The Console
Interface can be used for network configuration only (IP Address, Netmask, Gateway, and
DNS), and not general device control.
•IPTV Media Processing Platform (MPP) Component. The AVN422 is a component of the
MPP from Visionary Solutions. The MPP is a high density rack mountable blade system. The
MPP1700 platform holds up to 17 single slot encoder blades, or a combination of dual and
single slot blades. The MPP200 has a single power source and can hold two single slot
encoder blades or one dual slot blade. Each MPP will incorporate a growing family of
modules to support transport, switching, transcoding, and monitoring of IPTV.
