VN-Matrix 300 System Overview
In this example either of the two encoder streams may be routed to any of the three decoder
units. The VN-Matrix 300 labelled IP Rx is the controller for the system.

Data Transport Methods
Source (video) data from a VN-Matrix 300 Encoder can be distributed to multiple displays/
decoders (one-to-many) or to a single display/decoder (point-to-point).
Video data is transported from the source (encoder) to the display (decoder) using one of
three methods:
z
Multicast RTP
z
Unicast RTP
z
Unicast TCP
A description of each method, together with its advantages and disadvantages, can be
found on the following pages.
