Introduction

 

Overview

 

DT-HDVD-IPSTR-CB is an IP control box that is used as an A/V control device 

for managing, configuring and controlling H.264 encoders and decoders on 

the local area network. It features two Ethernet ports and two RS232 ports, 

offering integration-friendly control features

——

LAN (Telnet & Web GUI), a 

third party controller (API) providing simple, flexible control and management 

options. The DT-HDVD-IPSTR-CB can automatically search for and display 

H.264 encoders and decoders. It is compatible with the configuration file from 

a PC configurator and uses the imported configuration file to perform 

operations on encoders and decoders such as matrix switching, video wall 

and multi-view.
