KILOVIEW N5 convertitore bidirezionale 3G-SDI/NDI

The KILOVIEW N5 is a compact and versatile bi-directional converter that bridges 3G-SDI and NDI video signals. Designed for professional broadcast, live production, and AV-over-IP workflows, it enables seamless conversion between SDI and NDI Full/NDI HX formats with ultra-low latency. The device supports bi-directional operation, allowing both encoding and decoding in a single unit, making it an ideal solution for flexible signal routing.

Advantages

Bi-directional NDI/SDI conversion eliminates the need for separate encoder and decoder units, reducing cost and complexity. With support for NDI Full and NDI HX, it ensures compatibility with a wide range of NDI-enabled devices. The ultra-low latency design is critical for live production environments. Power over Ethernet (PoE) simplifies installation by requiring only a single network cable for both data and power. The compact form factor with 1/4"-20 thread and cold shoe adapter allows easy mounting on cameras, rigs, or tripods.
