ZyPer4K
Decoder Function
The function of the ZyPer4K Decoder device (Decoder) is to accept 10G Ethernet traffic that
represents the information to be decoded and displayed. When the appropriate IP stream is
received the Decoder unit will first strip off the encryption that protects the payload on its transit
across the network. It then reformats the video and audio information for display and plays it
out its HDMI video output. Audio is also played out the appropriate port as included.
Other ports on the Decoder devices are for the carriage of USB, IR, RS232 and audio data as
well as a 1Gbit/second utility port for general purpose connectivity of devices to the 10Gb bulk
data infrastructure.
Common Interfaces on all Decoders:
•Power Input (12VDC)
•RS232 Input/Output
•1Gbit/sec Utility Ethernet Port
•Analog Audio Output
•Infrared Input and Output
•HDMI 2.0 Output
•Equipotential Grounding Lug
Ethernet Bulk Media Interface:
10Gb Fiber or 10Gb Copper
Optional Interfaces on Decoder Units:
DisplayPort:
(none) or present
USB:
(none) or
2x USB Type-A Interface
Dante Transmitter:
(none) or present
In total there are 14 different, unique Decoder types that can be ordered.

ZyPer4K
Decoder
The function of the ZyPer4K Decoder is to accept a 10Gb IP feed containing the video
information to be displayed. It decrypts, decodes and formats the video and audio information
for display on the attached viewing device. The decoder is capable of outputting any HDMI 2.0
resolution supplied by the encoder including full 4K, 4:4:4 at 60Hz. There are several different
variations based on the user’s desired media type and USB options.
Enclosure variants
There are three sizes of the ZyPer4K Decoder unit enclosure.
Common Ports
The following ports are common to all decoders, regardless
of the interface options.

ZyPer4K
Optional Ports: USB
The ZyPer4K Decoder device can be ordered with optional USB
connectivity.
Shown to the left is a unit with the USB option (top) and without the
USB option (bottom) installed. This is a build-time option and is not
retrofittable to the product.
Important Note
!
The USB system requires its own IP Address that is different and independent from the IP
Address of the ZyPer4K itself. Customers that are using a DHCP server to generate IP
Addresses must ensure the pool of available IP Addresses accounts for any ZyPer4K USB
devices in the system.
If no DHCP server is available, the USB controller will assign itself a Link-Local address.
However, if there is a DCHP server, but there are not enough addresses available in the pool,
USB connections may fail.
There is no means of setting the USB controller with a Static IP address.
Optional Ports: Display Port
The ZyPer4K Decoder device can be ordered with an optional
DisplayPort output.
Note: DisplayPort output port does not support any Audio
capabilities.

ZyPer4K
Option: Dante Transmitter
The ZyPer4K Decoder device can be ordered
with an optional internal Dante Transmitter.
Note this is an extended box to accommodate
the Dante Transmitter hardware.
Important Note
!
The Dante Transmitter requires its own IP Address that is different and independent from the IP
Address of the ZyPer4K itself. Customers that are using a DHCP server to generate IP
Addresses must ensure the pool of available IP Addresses accounts for any ZyPer4K decoders
with Dante Transmitters in the system.
If no DHCP server is available, the Dante Transmitter will assign itself a Link-Local address.
However, if there is a DCHP server, but there are not enough addresses available in the pool,
Dante connections may fail.
The Dante Transmitter can be assigned a Static IP address via the Dante Controller software.

ZyPer4K
Dante Operation
It is expected that the user is familiar with Dante and the use of Dante networks. It is beyond the
scope of this document to provide Dante training.
The Dante Transmitter found in the ZyPer4K decoder will automatically insert the Down-mix
Audio stream that it is receiving onto the Dante Network. Refer to the ZyPer Management
Platform User Guide for details on streaming audio/video from an encoder to a decoder.
https://cdn2.hubspot.net/hubfs/4316736/SUPPORT/USER-GUIDES/ZyPer-Management-
Platform-User-Manual.pdf
Network settings are the same as standard ZyPer4K encoders/decoders.
Some switches may require additional settings to work with a Dante network. For example the
Netgear M4300 series requires settings detailed at the following location:
https://kb.netgear.com/000060205/M4300-Configuration-Guide-for-Dante-Audio-Devices
The user should consult the documentation for the switch provider being used.
In Dante Controller the device will appear as a Transmitter with the name ZV-XXXXXX-YYYYYY
XXXXXX - Represents the final bytes of the ZyPer4K MAC Address
YYYYYY - Represents the final bytes of the Dante AVIOAI2 Transmitter MAC Address
Note that the device can be renamed in Dante Controller software.
Below are screen shots from Dante Controller.
