AMX NMX-ENC-N3312D-C - 4K60 H.26x/Dante AV-H and H.26x Dual-Stream Encoder Card with 2 HDMI Inputs and RJ45/HDMI Loop-Out Outputs in Black Finish

The AMX NMX-ENC-N3312D-C Encoder Card is a high-performance solution designed to deliver the highest quality 4K60 H.26x and Dante AV-H video content at the lowest bandwidth, making it an ideal choice for a variety of professional AV applications. With its ability to stream 4K video, the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C enables extended reach of networked AV solutions across the WAN for streaming, video-to-desktop, digital signage, set-top boxes, and mobile device applications. This encoder card supports both primary and secondary video streams, allowing for flexible design and remote viewing or recording options. The primary stream supports high-quality 4K60 H.26x or Dante AV-H video, while the secondary stream outputs a high-compatibility, low-bandwidth 1080p H.26x stream, ensuring optimal performance even in challenging network environments.

One of the key features of the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C is its support for Dante AV-H, a standard for Audio-Video over IP (AVoIP) devices that enables seamless interoperability across multiple devices on the network. This encoder card is compatible with Dante Studio, a suite of software tools that provides real-time monitoring of video feeds and allows video to be brought directly into UC, recording, production, or streaming applications without additional hardware. Dante Controller facilitates device routing, naming, and configuration, while Dante Domain Manager offers IT-level management, including device organization, user access control, multiple subnet coordination, and comprehensive audit logs for every endpoint and user.

Additionally, the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C supports H.264 encoding, making it fully compatible with N3000 series decoders, N2600S decoders, and the NMX-WP-N3510 Windowing Processor. The encoder's dual HDMI inputs allow users to input up to two HDMI video feeds, enabling simultaneous encoding and streaming of multiple video sources. The HDMI 2.0 output supports HDCP 2.2 content protection, ensuring secure video distribution to connected displays. With a built-in USB 3.0 port for video recording, users can easily record non-HDCP content to external drives up to 2TB, providing an added layer of flexibility for video archiving and management.

For flexibility in video output, the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C supports resolutions up to 4K60 4:4:4, and output scaling can be applied to match the needs of various displays. The encoder card also supports a range of video resolutions from 720p to 4K, with one frame of latency introduced when scaling is enabled (17ms at 60fps). The video preview feature is available through the built-in web interface or a touch panel, allowing users to easily monitor the video feed in real time. The NMX-ENC-N3312D-C also features advanced security measures, including multicast, VLAN tagging, and Quality of Service (QoS) support, ensuring that video and audio streams are prioritized and securely transmitted across the network.

The encoder card is powered via PoE+ (Power over Ethernet), eliminating the need for separate power cables and simplifying installation. It also operates in low-power mode, making it an energy-efficient solution for large-scale AV systems. UL2043 certification for plenum space installations ensures that the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C can be safely installed in a variety of professional environments, including areas with air circulation systems. With its compact design, high-performance encoding, and versatile features, the NMX-ENC-N3312D-C is a robust solution for demanding AV applications.
