About this Guide
This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the NAV SD 511
Scaling Decoder, which receives HDMI video, audio, and RS-232 and IR communications
via a managed IP network using multicast streaming technology.
NOTE:
In this manual:
•
The NAV SD 511 is referred to as a “decoder.”
•
NAV decoders and encoders collectively are referred to as “endpoints.”
Two versions of decoder are documented in this guide. They are categorized by the
type of fiber optic cable, multimode or singlemode, which defines the effective range of
transmission:
•
Multimode fiber
— Long distance, up to 550 m (1804 feet)
•
Singlemode fiber
— Very long distance, up to 10 km (6.25 miles)
About the NAV System
The Extron NAV decoders and one or more compatible encoders form an AV distribution
and switching matrix on an Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Managed IP
Network. The encoders are configured for low latency multicast streaming. The decoders
are configured to join the assigned multicast group.
