This Kiloview N40 Plus UHD 4K HDMI / NDI Bidirectional Converter provides video encoding and decoding with support for resolutions up to UHD 4K60. The unit supports tally signals via a large tally indicator or using the built-in 1.14" LCD screen that also offers real-time monitoring of status, switch modes, and more.
PTZ camera control is achieved via IP and USB to serial RS-232, while power can be obtained using the included, dedicated DC power supply, from your camera via the USB-C port, or over PoE (Power over Ethernet) to streamline cabling for a neat, clutter-free setup. The N40 Plus features an audio jack that may be used to input analog audio or as a headphone port that supports mic in. The unit can also decode the NDI stream back to HDMI for display on a monitor with HDMI connectivity.
NDI Basics: The NDI protocol is a high-performance standard that enables anyone to use real-time, ultralow-latency video on existing IP video networks. The Kiloview N40 Plus supports bidirectional conversion between UHD 4K60 HDMI and NDI. It can both encode UHD 4K HDMI signals into an NDI stream for output and decode an NDI stream and output UHD 4K HDMI on your screen.
Use on Camera or in Rack: The flexibility of the N40 Plus allows you to use it on camera, for instant conversion of your camera's HDMI output to NDI, while supporting tally, for integrating your camera into a multi-camera production. In addition, you can use the same N40 Plus unit in a rackmount situation.
Encode & Decode: This tiny device performs both encoding and decoding, so you get two essential functions for the price of one by just hanging the working mode on the user interface to the mode you prefer. Please note that the encoding and decoding functions are mutually exclusive and cannot be used at the same time.
Control with a USB Keypad: In decoder mode, you can preset the NDI sources from number 0-9. When your keypad is ready, you can easily choose the output source with a single press. Additionally, you can even use a USB keypad to control a PTZ camera for a cost-efficient PTZ keyboard.
Versatile Tally Displays: In addition to the rear-mounted tally light, the N40 Plus has a 1.14" LCD screen that serves as an additional tally display and allows you to monitor device status, switching modes, and more. It features a bright and clear tally light for PVW/PGM with an additional tally light on the back panel.
Power and Data: With PoE, the N40 Plus can be powered with a single Ethernet cable. Additionally, it supports USB PD fast charging via USB, and can also be powered by a wide DC input range of 5 to 18V, camera batteries, or other compatible power sources
Broad Compatibility: Compatible with TriCaster, vMix, OBS, XSplit, Adobe, VIDBlaster, Wirecast, mimoLive, and Streamstar.
Audio Intercom: The N40 Plus supports 3.5mm analog audio mic in/out or embedded audio. It also supports voice intercom by USB headset between devices directly or with Kiloview Intercom server.
Video Source Auto Detection: Thanks to the NDI discovery server, your video can be easily found and connected by users from another network when registered to the designated server.
Mounting Versatility: The compact and lightweight design allows the N40 Plus to be easily attached to the camera by a threaded screw. The groove design on both sides of the unit facilitates rackmount installation.
