NetworkHD™ 400 Series 4K AV over IP JPEG 2000 Encoder with Dante
SKU: NHD-400-DNT-TXThe NHD-400-DNT-TX encoder offers stunning 4K HDR video, multichannel audio support and video resolution scaling to seamlessly handle mixed resolution HDMI sources for matrix and video wall functionality. Equipped with a Dante audio encoder the 400 Series embraces the flexibility of standardized audio distribution. Featuring incredible low latency the 400 Series is the ideal AV over IP solution for systems where high quality and low delay are key requirements, making it perfect for demanding commercial applications.
The NHD-400-DNT-TX JPEG 2000 encoder is intended for use with any 400 Series JPEG 2000 decoder (sold separately) to provide a complete end-to-end video distribution system. When used in conjunction with Dante compatible audio equipment the 400 Series can distribute source HDMI or analog audio throughout an installation.

4K UHD AND HDR SUPPORT
Delivering visually lossless 4K UHD content with HDR and HDCP 2.2 support the 400 Series ensures compatibility with the latest UHD video sources, while a built-in scaler at the decoder ensures hassle-free mixing of the latest 4K displays and 1080p screens within an installation.
