Crestron DM-NVX-360 DM NVX® 4K60 4:4:4 HDR Network AV Encoder-Decoder

Crestron® DM NVX® technology transports ultra high-definition 4K60 4:4:4 video over standard Gigabit Ethernet with no perceptible latency or loss of quality. Using standard network switches and CAT5e UTP wiring, a DM NVX system delivers a high-performance virtual matrix routing solution that is economically advantageous and infinitely scalable for any enterprise or campus-wide 4K content distribution application. Professional onboard scaling, HDR (High Dynamic Range) support, and HDCP 2.3 compliance ensure the ultimate in picture quality and compatibility for all of today’s varied media sources.1, 2

The DM-NVX-360 is a compact AV-over-IP encoder/decoder designed to function as either a transmitter or receiver. Capable of handling a network AV installation of any size, the DM‑NVX‑360 includes features such as secure web-based control and management, a scaling HDMI® output, video wall processing, an analog audio input or output, native AES67 transmit and receive capability, USB 2.0 and KVM integration, and support for copper and fiber Ethernet connectivity.2, 3

Real-Time 4K60 Video Distribution
Engineered for demanding conference room and classroom applications, DM NVX technology ensures real-time, full-motion 4K60 video performance for the presentation of multimedia, videoconferencing, and live camera images. Interactive functions such as gameplay and using a mouse are fluid and natural.

A DM NVX system also provides stability and reliability. Line‑synchronized outputs ensure perfect synchronization of content across multiple displays for applications such as digital signage and video walls. Variable Multicast TTL (Time To Live) enables traversing multiple network routers for optimal flexibility.

Encoder or Decoder Functionality
The DM‑NVX‑360 is configurable to operate as either a network AV encoder or decoder:

• As an encoder, the DM‑NVX‑360 allows the HDMI signal of a laptop computer, camera, or other media source to be transmitted over the network to one or many decoders.1
• As a decoder, the DM‑NVX‑360 receives the signal from a DM NVX encoder and feeds it to a display device via the HDMI output. The decoder can quickly and easily switch between multiple encoders on the network alongside a locally connected HDMI source.1

The DM‑NVX‑360 provides a versatile and cost-effective solution for applications that require encoder and decoder operating modes in a single device. The operating mode can be reconfigured dynamically in less than 1 minute via a control system or web browser or can be changed by using the onboard Setup button.

HDMI® Input
The DM‑NVX‑360 includes one HDMI input. When the DM‑NVX-360 is used as a decoder mounted behind a typical conference room display device, the HDMI input provides a convenient way to connect to a Crestron AirMedia® presentation gateway, videoconferencing codec, or small form factor computer.1

HDMI Output with 4K60 4:4:4 Scaler
When the DM‑NVX‑360 is configured as a decoder, the HDMI output feeds the decoded signal to the HDMI input of a local display device or other equipment. The built-in scaler ensures an optimal image, scaling the encoded source resolution up or down to match the native resolution of the display device. When the DM‑NVX‑360 is configured as an encoder, the HDMI output can be used to feed a local display, confidence monitor, or audio system.1, 4

Video Wall Processing
A video wall composed of up to 64 individual displays can be configured using multiple DM NVX endpoints. Each endpoint provides fully adjustable zoom capability and bezel compensation to accommodate a range of video wall configurations and display types. One DM NVX endpoint is required per display, supporting configurations of up to eight wide by eight high.


Analog Audio Embedding or De-embedding
A balanced stereo analog audio port is included, which can be configured as either an input or output. As an input, the port allows a stereo audio source to be connected and combined with the video signal from the HDMI input or the incoming network video stream. As an output, the port can provide a stereo line-level signal to feed a local sound system or soundbar. The output volume is adjustable via a control system or web browser.5

7.1 Surround Sound Audio
DM NVX technology supports the lossless transport of 7.1 surround sound audio signals, including Dolby® TrueHD, Dolby Atmos®, DTS HD®, DTS:X®, and uncompressed linear PCM. In decoder mode, the DM‑NVX‑360 can receive both multichannel and 2-channel downmix signals from a DM-NVX-363, DM-NVX-363C, DM-NVX-351, or DM-NVX-351C encoder, allowing either signal to be selected at the HDMI output while the 2-channel signal is automatically routed to the analog output.5

AES67 Audio Embedding or De-embedding
AES67 support allows the selected audio source to be transmitted as a 2-channel AES67 source while another AES67 2-channel audio stream is received from a Crestron DSP or other third-party device and combined with the video signal.

In DM NVX encoder mode, the received AES67 audio stream can be output via the local HDMI output, primary AV stream, secondary audio stream, and analog audio output. In DM NVX decoder mode, the received AES67 audio stream can be combined with the video and then output via the HDMI output and analog audio output.

NOTE: An AES67 stream that is received by a DM NVX endpoint cannot be transmitted from that endpoint.

Breakaway Audio
A DM NVX decoder can select and combine separate video and audio signals from two different inputs—even two different encoders. Combining signals from two separate encoders is limited to 2-channel stereo audio.6


Streamlined Management Using DM NVX Director Virtual Switching Appliances
Use of a DM NVX Director virtual switching appliance (DM‑NVX-DIR-80, DM-NVX-DIR-160, or DM-NVX‑DIR‑ENT) streamlines the entire configuration and control process. A DM NVX Director appliance provides a central point of management and enables the creation of multiple virtual matrix switchers through one easy-to-use web-based portal.
