DM-NVX-360C - DM NVX® 4K60 4:4:4 HDR Network AV Encoder/Decoder Card

Crestron® DM NVX® technology transports ultra high-definition 4K60 4:4:4 video over standard Gigabit Ethernet with no perceptible latency or loss of quality. Using standard network switches and CAT5e UTP wiring, a DM NVX system delivers a high-performance virtual matrix routing solution that is economically advantageous and infinitely scalable for any enterprise or campus-wide 4K content distribution application. Professional onboard scaling, HDR (High Dynamic Range) support, and HDCP 2.3 compliance ensure the ultimate in picture quality and compatibility for all of today’s varied media sources.1, 2

The DM-NVX-360C is an AV-over-IP encoder/decoder card that occupies one card slot in a DMF-CI-8 card chassis. The card is designed to function as either a transmitter or receiver in a high-density rack-mount installation. Capable of handling a network AV installation of any size, the DM-NVX-360C includes features such as secure web-based control and management, a scaling HDMI® output, video wall processing, an analog audio input or output, native AES67 transmit and receive capability, USB 2.0 and KVM integration, and support for copper and fiber Ethernet connectivity.2, 3

Real-Time 4K60 Video Distribution
Engineered for demanding conference room and classroom applications, DM NVX technology ensures real-time, full-motion 4K60 video performance for the presentation of multimedia, videoconferencing, and live camera images. Interactive functions such as gameplay and using a mouse are fluid and natural.

A DM NVX system also provides stability and reliability. Line-synchronized outputs ensure perfect synchronization of content across multiple displays for applications such as digital signage and video walls. Variable Multicast TTL (Time To Live) enables traversing multiple network routers for optimal flexibility.

Pixel Perfect Processing Technology
A DM NVX system incorporates Pixel Perfect Processing technology, which provides flawless video transport in all applications. Depending on the operating mode, the DM-NVX-360C can encode or decode a video signal to achieve imperceptible end-to-end latency of less than 1 frame. The image quality of the source is maintained across a 1-Gigabit network at any resolution up to 4K60 4:4:4.

Enterprise-Grade Security
Using advanced security features and protocols such as 802.1X authentication, Active Directory® credential management, AES-128 content encryption, PKI authentication, TLS, SSH, and HTTPS, a DM NVX system delivers a true enterprise-grade network AV solution engineered to fulfill demanding IT policies.

Encoder or Decoder Functionality
The DM-NVX-360C is configurable to operate as either a network AV encoder or decoder:

As an encoder, the DM-NVX-360C allows the HDMI signal of the output of a switcher, computer, Crestron AirMedia® gateway, or other media source to be transmitted over the network to one or many decoders.1
As a decoder, the DM-NVX-360C receives the signal from a DM NVX encoder and feeds it to the input of a switcher or display device via the HDMI output. The decoder can quickly and easily switch between multiple encoders on the network alongside a locally connected HDMI source.1
The DM-NVX-360C provides a versatile and cost-effective solution for applications that require encoder and decoder operating modes in one card. The operating mode can be reconfigured dynamically in less than 1 minute via a control system or web browser or via the DMF-CI-8 front panel.

HDMI® Input
The DM-NVX-360C includes one HDMI input, which provides a convenient way to connect a source device to a DM NVX integrated system.

HDMI Output with 4K60 4:4:4 Scaler
When the DM-NVX-360C is configured as a decoder, the HDMI output feeds the decoded signal to the HDMI input of a local display device, switcher, or other equipment. The built-in scaler ensures an optimal image, scaling the encoded source resolution up or down to match the native resolution of the display device. When the DM-NVX-360C is configured as an encoder, the HDMI output can be used to feed a local display, confidence monitor, or audio system.1, 4
