The NX4600 is an encoder, decoder and media edge adapter all built into one. Up to four baseband SDI video signals can be encoded using H.264/AVC or MPEG-2 compression and transported over ASI and IP. It is also possible to combine encoding and decoding in the same unit which increases flexibility in deployment of new services and gives a very tight and compact offering for outside broadcast production applications (sports, news and other live events) and managed media services.

The H.264/AVC Media Gateway includes Nevion’s trademark advanced protection mechanisms that enable real-time transport of professional media over IP networks with extremely high availability. The NX4600 offers built-in aggregation of TS over IP streams on one or multiple GbE ports.

NX4600 offers an intuitive and dynamic web interface that offers built-in Transport Stream monitoring of both encoder outputs and decoder inputs, as well as SDI and RTP/IP monitoring - all of which helps anticipate and correct any issues with input signals or networks should they arise.
