NetworkHD 500 Series Lite 4K60 4:4:4 JPEG2000 Encoder & Decoder

The NHD-500-E encoder and decoder enhance the NetworkHD 500 series by providing an economical 4K60 solution. The “E” variations remove many of the I/O found on the standard encoder and decoder and retain only the core functionalities that suite most applications. This helps avoid an over-specified hardware solution while still offering interoperability between all other 500 series components, enabling system designs to be better tailored to exact needs.

Additional Features

• Balanced audio de-embed on encoder provides convenient distribution of audio to external systems
• Less than a single frame a latency (16ms) when in passthrough mode allows content to be distributed without any perceivable delay.
• Routable serial on decoder allows control of peripheral equipment such as displays or projectors
• JPEG 2000 compression delivers visually lossless video transmissions
• Intuitive management and configuration via the NHD-CTL-PRO
• Compatible with the NHD-0401-MV multiview processor

PERFORMANCE & VERSATILITY
Introducing the all-new NetworkHD 500 series. The 500 series takes what you know and love about the 400 series and improves in almost every way! Full HDMI 2.0 encoding/decoding, faster switching speeds, higher quality preview streams and fiber connectivity are just some of the major advances that have been made.

ESSENTIAL CONNECTIVITY
Retaining only core functionalities, the 500-E’s remove Fiber & USB connectivity along with various control signal and audio outputs across both the encoder and decoder. This aims to offer flexibility for AV over IP applications that may not require advanced operations.

INTEROPERABLE
Mix and match all 500 series components to better tailor to your system requirements. The 500-E’s are compatible with the NHD-500-TX and RX, NHD-500-IW-TX and NHD-500-DNT-TX. Choose which encoder and decoder makes the most sense for what you need to accomplish.

4K60 ENCODING
Capable of encoding & decoding full HDMI 2.0 content. This includes 4K60 4:4:4 8bit and high dynamic range video including Dolby Vision, HDR10 & HLG up to 12bit 4:2:2 at 60Hz. All over a 1GbE network with ultra-low latency.

VIDEO WALLS
Create captivating large format video walls with the ability to process up to 256 screens (16×16). Easily adjust for screen bezels to ensure the video is pixel perfect. The 500 series also allow you to create mosaic style walls with rotated screens!
