The N6 NDI Converter is a full-function device that supports NDI and NDI|HX encoding and decoding. It is the first NDI converter in the market that is based on the latest NDI 5 technology. It is designed for IP-based post- production video output to screen, low latency transmission, and video conferences.
Advantages
- NDI and NDI|HX Encoding + Decoding, All-in-One
- Plug-and-play operation, simple Web UI management
- HDMI input and encode both NDI for production and NDI|HX for monitoring, and loop through NDI or NDI|HX decoding with HDMI output
- Preset 9 sources output and a USB keyboard for switching optional or control a PTZ camera
- Support 3.5mm analog audio line in/out or embedded audio as well as Mic in
- Support voice intercom between all Kiloview devices and the control PC/phone, or with Kiloview Intercom server
- Support PTZ control through USB to serial RS232/485/422 and PTZ control over IP with different protocols, no extra cable required

Descriptions
The first full function NDI converter on the planet
Kiloview N6 HDMI/NDI converter is a bi-directional converter that supports up
to 1080p60 HDMI input (encoder) to both NDI for production and NDI|HX for
monitoring at the same time, with loop through for view on monitor as well; or
HDMI video output (decoder) from NDI and NDI|HX. This is the first NDI
converter based on NDI SDK 5.0 which can handle both NDI and NDI|HX, encoding
and decoding. Featured with powerful functions such as PoE, built-in big tally
light, PTZ control, 3.5mm audio line in/out, intercom functions, N6 is the
easiest way to get access to the fabulous NDI world with versatile choices.
