Kiloview N50 12G-SDI Bidirectional NDI Converter

The N50 is Kiloview's 12G-SDI NDI converter, and the word that matters is bidirectional: the same unit encodes SDI to NDI or decodes NDI back to SDI, chosen in the web interface rather than by buying a second box. On a 12G-SDI plant that means 4K on a single BNC in either direction.

It speaks NDI High Bandwidth as well as NDI HX2 and HX3, and drops out to SRT, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, UDP, RTP or WHIP when the destination is a CDN rather than a switcher, encoding in SpeedHQ, H.264 or H.265. A 3.5mm line input and output handle audio alongside whatever is embedded on the SDI.
