StudioStation 100 • Reference Information
122
Secondary Storage Mode
—
The StudioStation 100 setting in which recordings are saved
to two storage drives rather than one. This is the alternative to single storage mode (see
below).
Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)
—
Similar to FTP, this protocol adds encryption and
requires credentials for file transfers.
Secure Shell (SSH)
—
A network protocol that creates a secure channel used for secure
communication between two computers on a network. SSH is typically used for data
communication, remote shell (login) services, or command execution.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
—
A protocol used by web servers and Web browsers that
creates a uniquely encrypted channel for private communications over the public Internet.
Session Announcement Protocol (SAP)
—
Used by source devices (encoders or servers)
in conjunction with SDP to publicize the availability of a stream to decoders and players.
The SAP periodically broadcasts session description information on an industry standard
multicast address and port. When received by remote clients, these announcements can be
used to facilitate the viewing of streams, eliminating the need for user configuration.
Session Description Protocol (SDP)
—
This protocol is used to describe streaming
media initialization parameters. It covers session announcement, session invitation, media
type and format, and other forms of multimedia session initiation (as defined in RFC 2327).
SDP does not deliver media itself. It simply details the stream parameters and how the
stream will be started.
Simple Instruction Set (SIS)
—
A set of commands developed by Extron that allows for
RS‑232, USB, and TCP / IP control of certain Extron products. A command is sent from
the control device to the product (using a minimal number of characters) and a response is
received from the product and shown on the display of the control device.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
—
An application‑layer protocol that
facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. This protocol
collects (and configures) information from network devices (such as servers, hubs, switches,
and routers) on an Internet Protocol (IP) network.
Single storage mode
—
The StudioStation 100 setting in which recordings are saved to
only one storage drive. This is the alternative to secondary storage mode (see
above).
Static IP address
—
An IP address specifically assigned to a device or system in a
network configuration. This type of address requires manual configuration of the network
device or system and can only be changed manually or by enabling
Stop bits
—
The bit or bits transmitted that signal the end of a character. Typically set to 1.
Streaming Media Player (SMP) Web browser plugin
—
The Extron SMP Web browser
plugin (V1.0) provides the best streaming features to display from Extron streaming media
devices.
Streaming media (stream)
—
Multimedia that is constantly received by (and normally
presented to) an end‑user while being delivered by a streaming provider. Internet television is
a commonly streamed medium.
Streaming stream
—
The streaming stream used for video previews, as in the AV Controls
panel, and also for streaming. Signals for the streaming stream are encoded at or below the
resolution or refresh rate of the recording encoding stream. The recording stream uses the
same audio settings as the recording stream, but the video encoding differs.
Switch
—
A network switch enables communication between devices in a network by
routing data between ports at the data link layer (layer 2 of the OSI model). A managed
switch can be configured to transmit data only to the specific device for which the data was
meant.
