The Kiloview N3-s 3G-SDI/Full NDI converter is a bi-directional converter that supports 3G-SDI video input (encoder) to Full NDI with 3G-SDI loop-through for display on monitor or 3G-SDI video output (decoder) from Full NDI.
Equipped with powerful features such as PoE, built-in large tally light, PTZ control, 3.5mm audio input/output, multi-channel audio and intercom functions, Kiloview N3-s is a great choice to access the NDI world for professional broadcast quality IP productions.
Why NDI?
The NDI protocol is a high-performance standard that enables anyone to use real-time video with extremely low latency in existing IP video networks.
NDI webcam input
With the free NDI® webcam input tool, you can easily set Kiloview NDI encoders as a video input source in popular desktop video applications such as Google Hangouts, GoToMeeting, Skype, Skype for Business, WebEx, Zoom, Teams and others.
Perfect for your video production
The N3 supports up to 3G-SDI HD video input to Full NDI and loop through for monitoring, while also supporting Full NDI to 3G-SDI output.
NDI encoder and NDI decoder in one
This tiny device can both encode and decode NDI. By switching on the user interface, you can select the mode you need.
The encoding and decoding functions of the N3 cannot be used simultaneously.
Automatic detection of the video source
Thanks to the NDI detection server, your video can be easily found and connected by users from another network if they are registered on the corresponding server.
Seamless switching without delay
When decoding NDI sources, there is no delay when switching the NDI output videos thanks to Kiloview technology.
Control with a USB keyboard
In decoding mode, you can preset the NDI sources from number 0-9. Connect the decoder to a USB keyboard and you can select the output source with a single keystroke.
You can also use the USB keyboard to control a PTZ camera.
PTZ control and large tally
Kiloview N3 supports PTZ control via USB and serial RS232/485/422. It also supports PTZ control via IP, no additional cable is required.
N3 has a large, bright and clear tally for the PVW/PGM display - everything you need for perfect collaboration with your team.
Power supply as required
With PoE, the N3 can be supplied with power via a single cable. Thanks to the wide DC input range of 5 V to 18 V, it can also be easily supplied with power via USB or the camera's battery.
