NetworkHD™ 500 Series 4K60 4:4:4 JPEG2000 Encoder with Dante Audio
SKU: NHD-500-DNT-TXThe NHD-500-DNT-TX is part of the powerful NetworkHD 500 series family of products. Capable of encoding up to 4K60 including Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG content. The 500 series comes loaded with a number of advanced features such as the flexibility of Ethernet or Fiber as a transport method. Ultra-low latency encoding and incredibly fast matrix switching speeds enhance the experience. Unique to this encoder is an integrated 2 channel Dante & AES67 audio output.

DANTE & AES67
The integrated 2 channel Dante & AES67 output allows audio to be sent over the network to compatible Dante & AES67 enabled DSPs, amplifiers, mixers and more. Audio can be transmitted via Dante from either the encoder’s HDMI input or a separate analog input.

AUDIO ISOLATION
Dante audio and NetworkHD A/V can be integrated into the same network or separated via a dedicated Dante-only port. If 3rd-party Dante equipment exists on a dedicated network, simply connect the Dante-only port to keep things separate and avoid complicated network configurations.

SECURITY
Equipped with the latest security protocols including SSH, TLS and HTTPS. Data and communications from the 500 series in encrypted end-to-end.
ULTRA-LOW LATENCY
Less than a single frame a latency (16ms) when in passthrough mode allows content to be distributed without any perceivable delay.
NETWORKHD TOUCH
The 500s are fully compatible with the NetworkHD Touch control app. Effortlessly control matrix and video wall switching with preview streams of each encoder.
