Hello, is it possible to do something like on picture shown bellow with SDVoE system? Whatever you put into Input X, must be routed to all output Xs If you plug 2 or more cables to input X, sw...

Dear AKC_Alois
Better late than never (I'm here):

Not a specific AV question really.
The generic IT networking answer would be to configure and operate multiple VLANs with dedicated Access Ports for each group. This is logically like operating small standalone, unmanaged switches that would allow plugging ports on demand.
Very vague what else you require - like access to these lamp cameras (sorry I had to search for understanding what these are 8-) , so these are known as Bulb Cams, haven't seen many of these with industry standard network protocol support), access to the internet, access to other devices on the LAN, ...
A "bigger picture", some make and model data of these cams,and a drawing (beyond of what you already asked, this part is clear to the readers) might be helpful to assist further.
Time for some more brainstorming?

this is clear, just create VLANs and that's it. My question is, does this also work reliably with SDVoE encoders and decoders? I only tested point to point connection with SDVoE and switch-based multicast software solution with SDVoE is from our parnter - we have very limited knowledge about how this work.

Oh, my bad. Instead of lamp camera you can put another PC. Lamp camera in this industry has video port out (typically SDI or HDMI with possible 1.3 or 1.4 HDCP protection) - again, connected over SDVoE encoder.
I will try to make a drawing so it's maybe a bit more clear what we want to do.
