Introducing Your New N2000 Series Devices
Product Overview
The N2000 AV over IP Series belongs to the SVSI product family from AMX. This series provides a flexible, feature-rich, and simple-
to-deploy digital media distribution and switching solution satisfying the most demanding applications. SVSI video over IP Encoders
are used to encode and distribute sources of almost any format onto an existing IP network, making that stream available to any
endpoint in the facility. Video over IP Decoders are used to decode SVSI’s Networked audio/video (AV) streams back to HDMI or DVI
format for display on any monitor. With the ability to direct any source stream to any display, large, low-cost switching and
distribution systems are simple to deploy without proprietary cabling or dedicated switching hardware. Plug-n-play, auto-detect
technology reduces installation and programming time.
Features include:
Input and Output Scaling – scaling performed in Encoders or Decoders for maximum flexibility.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) – eliminates the need for a local power supply and speeds installation. Units can still be powered
locally by 12VDC. This allows easy rack-mountable, high-density installations. (All units can be PoE powered except the
N2212 Decoder.)
Infrared (IR) emitter connection allows control of low-cost, IR-only display devices.
Fast install with Phoenix connectors for power, IR, RS232 serial, and analog audio interfaces.
Pass-through HDMI interface allows easy installation with local display, such as desktop PC applications.
Keyboard and mouse extension over IP (N2135/N2235).
HD AV over IP Series
The HD AV over IP Series includes the N2122 Encoder, the N2212 Decoder, and the N2222 Decoder. This series uses JPEG2000
compression to provide user-definable bandwidth consumption controls. The lower-cost N2212 is a non-PoE device. Refer to the
following figures (front and rear panel drawings of these devices) and the
Front and Rear Panel Descriptions table
on page 8 for
