The Digitalinx IP IPEX5001-D transmits HDMI video and audio over a 1 gigabit network infrastructure using JPEG2000 encoding with a variable data rate at an average of 250 Mbps with peak values up to 850Mbps. The IPEX5001-D is Dante enabled meaning that the encoder can on ramp two channel stereo audio either from the embedded HDMI audio stream or the analog audio 3.5mm input onto a Dante audio network. The multicast video and Dante audio IP streams are integrated into one Ethernet cable simplifying networked audio and video solution into one. An analog audio output port de-embeds stereo 2 channel audio from the HDMI two channel stereo embedded stream, while still passing stereo 2 channel audio to the HDMI output. The IPEX5001-D supports video signals up to 4K at 60 Hz 4:2:0 / 8 bit deep color, 4K at 24Hz 4:2:0 / 10 bit deep color for HDR10 support and HDCP 2.2 support. The encoder supports control of 3rd party devices via RS232 and IR. The USB host port connection is for connecting USB host devices such as a computer that is USB 2.0 Full Speed compliant up to 12Mbps that can communicate with client side devices connected to a decoder. The IPEX5001-D supports PoE power and can be powered remotely via PoE network switch eliminating the need for a nearby power outlet.
