Description
The NV-32-H (Core Capable) is a multipurpose, software-configurable video endpoint native to the Q-SYS Platform, offering two distinct operating modes to choose between, based on the needs of the application. ‘Core Mode’ transforms the device into a fully integrated Q-SYS processor with local HDMI switching capabilities. ‘Peripheral Mode’ allows multi-stream video encoding or decoding for network-based HDMI video distribution. Like all Q-SYS devices, the NV-32-H (Core Capable) offers native integration and control driven by the Q-SYS OS, simplifying setup and configuration while eliminating the need for advanced programming knowledge. With its Q-SYS Platform integration, you’re able to receive cryptographically-signed firmware updates, ensuring secure updates in functionality and security to your entire system.
Core Mode: Consolidated Q-SYS AV processor, control engine, and local HDMI video switcher to support video collaboration in small and medium sized meeting rooms and classrooms.
Peripheral Mode: Native HDMI and audio distribution without the need for additional control processors, bridges or complicated programming.
Features
Core Mode Peripheral Mode |
|||
| Fully integrated Q-SYS processor: ‘Core Mode’ enables the same integrated audio, video and control features as the rest of the Q-SYS Core portfolio, but with specific I/O and processing capabilities specifically tuned for video collaboration in small meeting rooms or classrooms. |
Quality: The NV-32-H provides high-quality, low latency video streaming with resolutions of up to 4K60 4:4:4 over a standard gigabit network. |
||
| Onboard HDMI switch: The 3 x 2 HDMI I/O enables in-room users to easily share presentation or video content from their laptops or other video sources (video encoding/decoding is unavailable in this mode). Onboard HDMI switching is 3 x 1 @ 4K60 or 3 x 2 @ 1080p. |
Network optimized compression scheme: Q-SYS Shift™ video compression codec actively adjusts network bandwidth resources according to content, affording massive network savings for common meeting room content without compromising on the ability to stream full-motion video. |
||
| Consolidated AV functionality: The 1 RU, half-rack unit consolidates disparate AV functionality to free up physical space and reduce hardware and installation costs |
Single device solution: The NV-32-H is configurable as an encoder or decoder, simplifying the ordering and specification process and providing flexibility for meeting spaces. |
||
| Simultaneous streaming: With 3x HDMI inputs and 2x HDMI outputs, the NV-32-H enables flexible room design scenarios, such as simultaneous 1080p60 streaming for dual-monitor rooms, with a single device. It also enables soft codec applications that support dual video output. |
|||
| Local output switching: When set as a decoder, the NV-32-H can provide local video source selection in addition to displaying content from network streams. |
|||
| Test your network: The NV-32-H features a Network Test feature, accessible in Q-SYS Designer Software, that allows you to send full video data loads across your network to check for potential network configuration issues without needing actual video sources and/or sinks connected. |
