Overview

Distributes one 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI source to an unlimited number of displays over the standard 1G network the building already runs. Housed in a compact black metal enclosure measuring 8.03" x 5.35" x 1.00" and drawing 8.52W from PoE or a local 12V supply, it delivers visually lossless JPEG2000 video with embedded audio, USB/KVM and control from a single endpoint. That makes it the right choice for corporate, higher-education, command-and-control and courtroom systems where 4:4:4 fidelity, network reach and endpoint density matter more than a dedicated 10G fabric or a box-per-function build.

Beyond point-to-point routing, the encoder drives full video matrix and video wall layouts up to 9x9 with intelligent video-wall class management, and carries bidirectional RS-232, two-way IR, CEC and USB 2.0/KVM across the same link. It is configured through a built-in web GUI with Telnet and SSH, or from an external controller. Its defining advantage is consolidation: copper and SFP fiber in one box, two relay and two I/O contact-control channels for room automation, ARC/eARC/S/PDIF/analog audio return, and license-activated Dante AV-A — capabilities rival platforms split across separate models. A companion decoder is sold separately.

What input and output color depth does the AVO-IPJP2K-ENC handle?

It accepts 8, 10, or 12-bit color at the input and outputs 8-bit. Color space covers RGB 4:4:4 and YCbCr 4:4:4 / 4:2:2 / 4:2:0.

What are the HDMI and HDCP compliance figures and the video bandwidth?

The AVO-IPJP2K-ENC is HDMI 2.0b and HDCP 2.2 compliant with 18Gbps video bandwidth. Video is carried as JPEG2000 over a 1G network.

How is the AVO-IPJP2K-ENC controlled within a larger system?

The system is driven by a Controller Box or a third-party controller; the command set lives in the separate Video over IP Controller manual, not the device manual.

What network interfaces are available for configuration and integration?

It has a built-in web page for configuration plus Telnet and SSH access. Bonjour discovery advertises the encoder with an AST-ENC host-name prefix.

What switch does the AVO-IPJP2K-ENC require on the network?

Use a Layer-3 managed gigabit switch with 8KB jumbo frame support and IGMP snooping enabled.

How do I connect analog and digital audio at the encoder?

Analog L/R audio in and out use 3-pin 3.81mm Phoenix connectors, and there is one S/PDIF optical output. Analog AUDIO IN can be embedded into HDMI or looped out.

No video reaches the displays?

Confirm the encoder and its decoders are on the same network segment and paired, and that the managed switch has IGMP snooping and jumbo frames enabled. Check the LINK LED is on.

The LINK LED flashes?

The input signal is missing or incompatible. Set the source within 4K60 4:4:4 (HDMI 2.0b / HDCP 2.2) and confirm the HDMI IN cable is seated.

Is JPEG2000 quality good enough for 4K60 4:4:4 content, including text and graphics?

Yes. JPEG2000 is visually lossless at 4K60 4:4:4 with sub-frame latency, which is why it is used in command centers and courtrooms where text clarity and KVM responsiveness matter. It avoids the visible artifacts and lag of H.264/H.265 systems while fitting a 1GbE pipe that uncompressed 10G systems

Do we get Dante audio out of the box?

The hardware supports Dante AV-A, activated by license. That lets you attach Dante only on the projects that need converged audio, rather than paying for it on every endpoint - and it puts the video system's audio on the same network as the rest of the Dante plant.
