IP Ethernet to HDMI CVBS Video Decoder Board
The ON2180 IP Ethernet Video Decoder Board converts network video streams into HDMI and CVBS display signals. It is designed for embedded video systems that need a compact and low-latency solution for receiving and displaying IP video.
The decoder supports RTSP video streams with H.264/H.265 decoding and provides HDMI output up to 1920×1080@60fps. HDMI and CVBS outputs can operate simultaneously, allowing the same network video source to be connected to both modern HDMI displays and legacy analog monitors.
With a compact 38 × 38 mm PCB and approximately 10.9 g weight, the decoder can be integrated into space-constrained equipment, industrial control systems, monitoring terminals, video processing equipment, and customized OEM products.

HDMI and CVBS Video Output
The decoder provides both HDMI and CVBS outputs, allowing IP video to be displayed on different types of monitors.
HDMI supports up to 1920×1080 at 60fps, while the CVBS interface provides an analog video output for equipment that does not have an HDMI input.
This makes the board suitable for upgrading existing video equipment while maintaining compatibility with legacy displays.
RTSP IP Video Decoding
The ON2180 receives video through Ethernet and decodes network video streams directly on the board.
Users can configure the RTSP stream through the web interface and connect the decoder to an IP camera, video encoder, network video transmitter, or other compatible IP video source.
The board can support up to four RTSP video streams simultaneously, with the streams displayed in a combined multi-view layout.
Compact Embedded Design
The main decoder board measures only 38 × 38 mm and weighs approximately 10.9 g.
For easier system integration, an optional interface expansion board provides standard connectors for:
- RJ45 Ethernet
- HDMI
- USB
- USB Type-C
- CVBS
- Power and control interfaces
The expansion board and decoder board can be stacked together, providing a convenient development and integration solution.
Audio Support
The decoder supports:
- G.711 audio
- AAC audio
- HDMI audio output
- Analog audio input/output
- Two-way voice communication
Audio functions can be integrated into network monitoring, communication and embedded video applications.
Network and Software Functions
Supported network and software functions include:
- RTSP

How It Works
IP Video Source → Ethernet → ON2180 Decoder → HDMI / CVBS Display
The decoder receives a compatible IP video stream through Ethernet, performs hardware video decoding, and outputs the decoded video through HDMI and CVBS.
This architecture provides a compact way to add IP video decoding and display capability to an existing embedded product.
Why Choose an Embedded Decoder Board?
Compared with using a complete set-top box or industrial computer, an embedded decoder board can reduce system size and simplify integration.
The ON2180 is designed as a board-level solution, making it suitable for equipment manufacturers and system integrators who need to integrate IP video decoding directly into their own products.
For OEM/ODM projects, Onvon can evaluate hardware, firmware, interface and software requirements and recommend a suitable customization approach.
