Mostly used configuration is 1 to 1 connection. A NSD5451 is installed at a site where video images
can be transmitted and a PC or a decoder is installed at a center location to receive and view the
video images on analog monitor. Audio and serial data are transferred in either direction.

Local Site
In this configuration, a site can be monitored from many remote center locations. Although up to 64
PCs or decoders can be connected to on NSD5451, in the real network environment, network
bandwidth can limit the maximum connections.
Functionally, the central monitoring system software can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
Within the network that supports multicasting, a large number of decoders can be used to receive
video effectively from a NSD5451 using a single streaming of video and audio.
