### Overview

The NMX-ENC-N2412A is a cutting-edge low-latency encoder designed to deliver exceptional video quality at resolutions up to 4K60 4:4:4 over standard Gigabit Ethernet networks. Leveraging advanced JPEG2000 encoding, the N2412A, along with the N2422A decoder and other components of the N2400 Series, ensures cinema-grade video distribution with minimal latency—just two frames. This capability makes it an ideal solution for environments requiring high-resolution video with impeccable detail.

### Key Features

– **4K60 4:4:4 Support**: The N2400 Series is engineered to handle today’s 4K content without altering color space or frame rate. This support ensures that the video quality remains true to the source, preserving the high-definition detail and vibrant colors essential for demanding applications.

– **Gigabit Ethernet Operation**: These encoders and decoders are designed to operate over Gigabit Ethernet, making use of existing Cat5 cable infrastructure. This approach not only reduces costs compared to solutions requiring 10 GbE but also offers greater scalability for video switching. By using standard Gigabit Ethernet switches, the N2400 Series provides a flexible and cost-effective video distribution solution.

– **Low Latency**: The N2400 Series achieves a remarkable level of performance with just two frames of latency, which is nearly imperceptible. This low latency is crucial for applications where real-time video processing and distribution are essential, such as live events and interactive environments.

– **HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 Support**: The inclusion of HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 ensures that the N2400 Series is fully compatible with the latest 4K sources and displays. This compatibility allows for seamless integration with modern equipment and supports high-definition content protection, making it suitable for a wide range of high-resolution video applications.

– **PoE+ Powered**: The N2400 Series can be powered via Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), which simplifies installation by eliminating the need for separate power supplies. This feature not only reduces installation costs but also enhances the flexibility of placement for the encoders and decoders.

– **Native NetLinx Integration**: For ease of integration with AMX control systems, the N2400 Series supports native NetLinx control. This capability streamlines the installation process and reduces the overall cost of setting up a comprehensive video distribution system.

### Common Applications

The N2400 Series is perfectly suited for a variety of high-resolution video distribution needs:

– **Casinos**: Ideal for environments where large-scale, high-definition video displays are crucial for delivering engaging content and immersive experiences.

– **Sporting Arenas**: Provides the high-resolution, low-latency video necessary for live sports broadcasts and viewer engagement in large venues.

– **Museums**: Enhances the visitor experience with high-quality video displays that showcase exhibits in stunning detail.

– **Lecture Halls and University Campuses**: Facilitates high-definition video distribution in educational settings, supporting active learning spaces and enhancing instructional presentations.

– **Active Learning Spaces**: Perfect for environments where clarity and detail in video are critical for interactive and immersive educational experiences.

In summary, the NMX-ENC-N2412A and the N2400 Series represent a state-of-the-art solution for 4K video distribution over IP networks, combining high resolution, low latency, and robust features in a cost-effective and scalable package.
