ProAVNews: Extron The Most Advanced AV Over IP Wallplate Encoders

Extron is pleased to introduce two new NAV® encoders, which feature a stylish, decorator-style wallplate design. These models support streaming visually lossless 4K video with ultra-low latency. With support for 1 Gbps Ethernet networks and optional Ethernet expansion ports, the NAV wallplate encoder series uses the Extron-patented PURE3 codec to deliver groundbreaking performance with real-time, visually lossless video at resolutions up to 4K@60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling.

The award-winning NAV Series is the only solution featuring seamless, complete interoperability between 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps devices, increasing scalability and flexibility for large deployments. Support for AES67 audio over IP facilitates integration with Extron's broad range of audio DSPs or other IP-enabled audio components. NAV systems can be deployed as a high-performance IP-based video and audio matrix, combining the flexibility of an IP-based system with the integration-friendly switching features found in Extron conventional matrix switchers. Purpose-built to support demanding professional AV applications, the highly scalable and powerful NAV platform enables secure distribution of AV signals to thousands of endpoints.
