One of Crestron’s big announcements at Integrated Systems Europe 2017 is the introduction of its next-generation DigitalMedia NVX Series.
The new products represent significant developments for AV integrators, according to Crestron, in part because it elevates network AV possibilities and does so over standard Ethernet.
According to Crestron, DigitalMedia NVX Series makes it possible to transmit 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet, with no latency which is an industry first.

Meanwhile, Crestron says the DM NVX Series is an infinitely scalable network AV solution, allowing for a simple point-to-point setup to thousands of endpoints and requiring only DM NVX Encoders/Decoders.
“DM NVX Series takes network AV to the next level, on the platform industry pros know and trust,” says Steve Samson, executive director, business development, Crestron, in a press release.
“Unlike other network AV products, there’s no need for expensive custom 10 Gigabit infrastructure.”

More from the Press Release on NVX Series’ Infinite Scalability
DM NVX Series is an infinitely scalable high-performance software-defined matrix that provides the ability to share 4K60 4:4:4 HDR HDCP 2.2 compliant content anywhere over a dedicated 1Gb network with no latency. Additionally, it offers the flexibility to be combined with existing Crestron HDBaseT® connectivity and network AV products to deliver content to displays, laptops, tablets, and phones anywhere.

DM NVX Series is comprised of DM NVX Encoder/Decoder Boxes (DM-NVX-350, DM-NVX-351), DM NVX Encoder/Decoder Cards (DM-NVX-350C, DM-NVX-351C), and the DM NVX Card Chassis (DM-CI8). DM NVX Encoders/Decoders provide auto-switching and support Ethernet natively, as well as fiber, with optional SPF modules.
More from the Press Release on Easy to Integrator-Friendly Features
Intelligent software residing in the DM NVX Series Encoder/Decoder boxes and cards makes it simple to configure, deploy, and manage entire systems from the web. Integrators simply choose sources and displays, and set bandwidth and latency to meet the needs of the application and infrastructure.
“Only DM offers the ability to deliver ‘hybrid’ network AV solutions. Whatever your application and infrastructure needs – point-to-point via HDBaseT or fiber, streaming over an existing data network, or, now, a dedicated standard 1Gb network that delivers the highest image quality and unlimited scalability – DM brings it all together on a single easy-to-manage platform,” adds Samson.
