Systems & Network Training launches 5-day SMPTE 2110 course
Systems & Network Training announced a new five-day, hands-on training course for engineers focused on SMPTE ST 2110 IP-based media systems. The course covers comprehensive aspects of ST 2110, including uncompressed video, Audio-over-IP, ancillary data, timing, synchronization, multicast delivery, and AMWA NMOS standards such as IS-04 to IS-10. It is designed for broadcast and AV engineers to learn practical skills in analyzing, troubleshooting, and deploying ST 2110 workflows.
Key Takeaways
- The course runs for 5 days and is described as hands-on for broadcast and AV engineers.
- Training covers SMPTE ST 2110-10 to -60, plus ST 2110-22 for compressed workflows and ST 2110-40 for ancillary data.
- Labs include packet analysis with Wireshark, PTP analysis with linuxptp, and NMOS work in Postman and nmos-cpp.
- The syllabus includes multicast topics such as IGMP snooping, PIM-SM, SSM, and ST 2022-7 hitless switching.
- Prerequisites include Systems & Network Training’s TCP/IP foundation for engineers course.
Why It Matters
This gives broadcast and AV engineers a structured path into ST 2110, with practical coverage of packet analysis, timing, multicast, and NMOS device control rather than just standards theory. It also ties 2110 to adjacent pieces of the IP media stack, including ST 2022-7, AES67, and BCP-003 security guidance. The clearest signal to watch is course demand and whether Systems & Network Training expands the format beyond this new five-day offering, since the page says this is a new course.
