DTV-MA01 

TDS Management

 

Appliance

Overview

The DTV-MA01 TDS Management Appliance (

FG1412-01

) manages television distribution in 

an AMX TDS (Television Distribution System) installation (FIG. 1).     

Rear Panel Components

12 VDC Power Connector

Connect the power adapter to the unit, and plug the power adapter into an AC power outlet.

Note

: Use ONLY the power adapter supplied with the DTV-MA01. Otherwise, the unit may be 

damaged.

Video Output Connectors

The VGA and HDMI Video Output connectors are located on the rear panel: 

VGA

: The SVGA connector provides analog RGBHV video output.

HDMI

: The HDMI connector provides HDMI video output.

10/100 Network Port

The 10/100 (Ethernet RJ45) port on the front panel provides 10/100 BaseT network 
connectivity via Cat5/5e/6 network cable. Refer to the 

AMX TDS Installation 

Overview

section for more information.

Note

: The DTV-MA01 requires Layer 3 switching. Therefore a Layer 3 Network Switch 

(sometimes referred to as a "Multilayer Switch") is required to operate properly.

10/100 Network Port Pinouts and Signals

The following table lists the pinouts, signals, and pairing for the 10/100 Network port.    

FIG. 2 diagrams the pinouts and signals for the 10/100 Port RJ45 connector and cable. Note 
that while 568B termination is shown in the figure, 568A can also be used, as long as both 
ends are terminated the same way.      

Consult the Network Administrator for correct cabling from the DTV-MA01 onto the network. 

For remote connectivity, the Firewall may have to be configured to open port 

2008

 for 

remote connectivity over UDP. 

Ports 

5000

 and 

5001

 are required for the Transmitters as well as any ports used for the 

TDS Multicast stream.

Ports 

5002

 and 

5003

 are fixed as the multicast stream output ports.

Default IP Address

By default, the DTV-MA01 is set to 

DHCP

.

Note

The DTV-MA01 must be set to a static IP address, or have the DHCP server set 

up to always give it the same IP address.

 

Automatic re-assignment of the IP address via DHCP may cause communication issues with 
the TDS system. If the DTV-MA01 is assigned a new IP address, then all TX and RX units in 
the system must be rebooted.

Network Switch Requirements

The DTV-MA01 requires a Layer 3 Gigabit Switch with multicast support, IGMP Querier/
Snooping and PIM.

Audio Output Connector

The green 1/8" stereo connector provides analog audio output.

Note

: The Audio in (blue) and Microphone (red) connectors are not used.
