Getting started

Required materials:

  • 1× MoIP transmitter per source

  • 1× MoIP receiver per source

  • 1× MoIP controller B-900-MoIP-4K-CTRL

  • 1× Layer 2 or 3 managed switch

  • Sources, displays, HDMI cables, and category cabling

Note: B-960 and B-900 video devices cannot pass video to each other. B-960 devices are compatible with B-900 audio receivers and transmitters.

Read these tips before you begin

  • Do not use keystones with MoIP devices.

  • Assign the Core MoIP switch to the lowest IP address among the rest of your switches. This ensures the Core MoIP switch is always elected as the IGMP querier.

  • Use downmixing transmitters for installations using a mix of AV receiver and stereo zones.

  • Document the MAC address and Service Tag of each MoIP device and notate which input or display they’re connected to.

  • Disable power-saving settings on connected sources and displays to maintain the video stream.

  • To avoid unwanted noise, connect the MoIP audio transmitter’s ground screw terminal to a local AC ground.

Configuration order of operations

  1. Configure the network. Read Network planning to get started.

  2. Connect all MoIP devices to one dedicated switch. B-960 configurations must use an Araknis 920 switch. Read MoIP configuration for AN-920 Edge switches for more information.

  3. Perform available firmware updates.

  4. Configure the system using OvrC’s MoIP System Management or the local UI.
