Kiloview N3-s 3G-SDI NDI Bi-Directional Video Encoder/Decoder

The Kiloview N3-s is a professional bi-directional 3G-SDI NDI encoder/decoder, enabling seamless conversion between SDI video and NDI IP streams. With support for Full NDI and NDI|HX, it offers low-latency (<100ms) video transmission over standard Gigabit Ethernet networks. Ideal for live production, broadcast, and AV-over-IP applications, the N3-s features PoE power, loop-through SDI output, and versatile control options including Web UI and HTTP API.

Advantages

Bi-directional operation allows the device to function as either an encoder or decoder, providing flexibility in various workflows. Power over Ethernet (PoE) simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate power cable. The compact design with a 1/4"-20 thread mount enables easy rigging on cameras or tripods. Tally light and intercom support enhance studio integration.
