Systems & Network Training launches 5-day SMPTE 2110 course
Systems & Network Training offers a five-day hands-on training course for engineers focused on SMPTE ST 2110, covering modern IP-based media systems. The course details various ST 2110 standards, PTP timing, multicast delivery, and AMWA NMOS, with practical labs involving packet analysis and troubleshooting. This training aims to equip broadcast and AV engineers with the skills to implement and manage ST 2110 workflows.
Key Takeaways
- The course runs for 5 days and is aimed at broadcast engineers and AV engineers.
- Modules cover SMPTE ST 2110-10 to ST 2110-60, plus AMWA NMOS IS-04 to IS-10.
- Hands-on labs include Wireshark packet analysis, Linux PTP analysis, multicast troubleshooting, and RTP flow capture.
- The syllabus includes ST 2110-20 video, ST 2110-30/-31 audio, ST 2110-40 ancillary data, and ST 2110-22 compressed workflows.
- Prerequisites include the TCP/IP foundation for engineers course.
Why It Matters
This gives broadcast and AV teams a structured way to train staff on ST 2110, PTP timing, multicast delivery, and NMOS without building the curriculum internally. The course also maps the broader IP media stack, from SDI versus IP workflows to ST 2022-7 hitless switching and TR-1001 operational checklists. A concrete signal to watch is whether Systems & Network Training expands the new course beyond its current five-day format and listed prerequisite path.
