NAV E 501

The NAV E 501 is a Pro AV over IP encoder that streams ultra-low latency, high quality video, audio, Ethernet, and USB 2.0 signals over 1 Gbps Ethernet networks at low bitrates. Using Extron’s patented PURE3® codec, it delivers groundbreaking performance with high quality video at resolutions up to 4K @ 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling and ultra-low latency. The NAV E 501 is fully compatible with NAV® 10 Gbps endpoints, increasing scalability for large deployments. Support for analog audio, embedded digital HDMI audio, and AES67 audio over IP facilitate flexible integration with DMP Plus DSPs or other IP-enabled audio components. Purpose-built to support demanding professional AV applications, the highly scalable and powerful NAV platform enables secure deployment of AV signals to thousands of endpoints.
