Building Scalable Media Systems Using JT-NM TR-1001

SMPTE ST 2110 has received a great deal of attention over the past few years, but less attention has gone to the surrounding standards that enable systems to be easily constructed. SMPTE, EBU, AES, VSF, and other organizations have worked together to create a set of interlocking standards and specifications that allow end customers to build real systems. This paper covers the real dynamics of building a scalable media system using SMPTE ST 2110 and the related interface and control specifications and recommendations — especially JT-NM TR-1001-1.
