RGB Spectrum Zio V3024 – 15-Stream IP Multiviewer System

Product Overview

The RGB Spectrum Zio V3024 is an IP multiviewer system that decodes up to 15 2K streams or three 4K streams and composites them to a mini-DisplayPort output. It is specified for control room and command center positions that need far more windows on one display than a five-stream endpoint can provide. The unit includes WebView for displaying web-based content, so dashboards and management consoles appear alongside live video. All streams arrive over a single Gigabit Ethernet connection, keeping the operator position free of source cabling.

Product Description

The Zio V3024 is a self-contained multiviewer appliance rather than a card in a chassis, which makes it a practical way to add high window-count monitoring to an existing AV-over-IP system. RGB Spectrum publishes the V3000 Series input capability as 15x 1080p and 3 4K IP streams, with input resolution up to 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz and 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz. The output is one mini-DisplayPort 1.4 connection at up to 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz, so a single 4K panel can carry a dense multi-window layout. WebView-driven browser content sits in the same layout as decoded video, which matters in operations centers where half the information lives in a web application. Streaming uses H.264 and H.265 over RTSP with unicast or multicast transport, and control is browser-based HTML5 from Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. Because the appliance is mains powered at 100-240 VAC, it is a straightforward drop-in for a rack shelf or a credenza behind a display. Source-side pairing is with Zio S2114 4K encoder endpoints and Zio S2112 encoder endpoints for HDMI devices, or Zio2 S5024 multichannel encoders where several sources share one enclosure. Where a mini-DisplayPort output has to reach an HDMI display, the 520 12409 active mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter is the matching accessory. Sites that prefer to run the same multiviewing function on their own server hardware can specify the 750 12411 single-user multiviewer software license instead of the appliance.

Key Features

• High window count on one display — RGB Spectrum publishes 15x 1080p and 3 4K IP streams for the series, so a single operator display can carry a dense multi-source layout.
• Web content in the layout — Included WebView support places browser-based dashboards and management consoles in the same view as decoded video streams.
• 4K mini-DisplayPort output — One mini-DisplayPort 1.4 output at up to 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz drives a large-format panel at full resolution.
• Single-cable stream delivery — All sources arrive on one RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet connection, which removes per-source video cabling from the operator position.
• H.264 and H.265 decoding — Both compression formats are supported over RTSP unicast or multicast, so the system works with mixed Zio encoder generations.
• Browser-based HTML5 control — Layouts, presets and routing are managed from Windows, macOS, iOS and Android clients without installed software.
• Compact mains-powered appliance — At 3.1 lbs and 1.4 x 7.0 x 7.2 inches with a 100-240 VAC supply, the unit fits a shelf, credenza or rack tray.

Typical Applications

• Control room — A single supervisory display can hold 15 HD feeds, which suits shift-lead and situational-awareness positions.
• Command center — Decoded video and web dashboards share one layout, so an incident commander works from a single screen.
• Operations center — Network and utility operations desks monitor many systems at once over the existing IP network.
• Emergency operations center — Dense layouts and stored presets let a room be reconfigured quickly for different event types.
• Broadcast studio — Engineering positions use the system as a multi-source confidence monitor for encoded feeds.
• Government space — Agency monitoring rooms consolidate many IP sources without adding baseband infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many streams can the Zio V3024 display at once?
RGB Spectrum states that the V3024 model allows up to 15 2K, three 4K streams, or other equivalents, and publishes the series input figure as 15x 1080p and 3 4K IP streams.

What output connector does the V3024 use?
The published output is one mini-DisplayPort 1.4 connector at up to 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz; the 520 12409 active mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter is used where the display accepts HDMI only.

Can it show web pages and dashboards as well as video?
Yes. WebView is included for displaying web-based content, so browser sources can be placed in the layout alongside decoded IP streams.

Which encoders should be specified with it?
For HDMI sources, Zio S2114 and Zio S2112 endpoints are the usual match, while Zio2 S5024 multichannel encoders suit racks with several sources in one location.

Is there a software-only alternative to the appliance?
Yes. The 750 12411 single-user multiviewer software license provides the multiviewer function on Red Hat Enterprise Linux for sites that standardize on their own server hardware.

What network and power provisions are needed?
The published network interface is Ethernet TCP/IP 10/100/1000BaseT on one RJ-45 GigE port, and power is 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz, 135 W max, so a standard rack outlet is sufficient.

What warranty and support apply?
The RGB Spectrum manufacturer warranty applies to this part number, and Creation Networks supports specification and procurement, including written confirmation of the current warranty terms before you place the order.
