Extron NAV Series expands AV over IP wallplate options with two new encoders

ANAHEIM, Calif. – Extron is pleased to introduce two new NAV encoders, which feature a stylish, decorator-style wallplate design and stream ultra-low latency, high quality video, audio, and Ethernet signals over a 10 Gbps optical Ethernet interface. These encoders support streaming real-time, lossless video at resolutions up to 4K@60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling.

“We’re excited to expand our award-winning NAV Series with our new 10G decorator-style wallplate encoders, which feature the industry’s most advanced technology in a stylish, convenient form factor,” says Casey Hall, Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing at Extron. “This new wallplate form-factor makes it easy for integrators to elegantly install NAV encoders right where they are needed, in walls, lecterns, floor boxes, or any presentation furniture that accommodates a 3-gang junction box.”

The award-winning NAV Series is the only solution featuring seamless, interoperability between 1  and 10 Gbps devices, increasing scalability and flexibility for large deployments. Support for AES67 audio over IP facilitates integration with Extron’s broad range of audio DSPs or other IP-enabled audio components. NAV systems can be deployed as a high-performance IP-based video and audio matrix, combining the flexibility of an IP-based system with the integration-friendly switching features found in Extron conventional matrix switchers. Purpose-built to support demanding professional AV applications, the highly scalable and powerful NAV platform enables secure distribution of AV signals to thousands of endpoints.
