Semtech’s BlueRiver® platform continues to pave the way for the future of AV signal distribution over IP. The new SDVoE™-compatible NINJAR NJR-T01SDI encoder with 3D/HD/SD-SDI input is now available to the AV market. The high performance solution was built using Semtech’s BlueRiver chipset and software API.

The fully integrated platform includes system control, signal extension, distribution, seamless/KVM switching, video wall, and multiview capabilities.

Boasting full format agility, true 4K/60 4:4:4 HDR HDCP2.2 capabilities, edge-to-edge zero frame delay, and unparalleled stability, the IP-NINJAR leverages off-the-shelf 10Gb Ethernet infrastructure to replace traditional baseband AV architectures.

SDVoE Encoder with SDI Input

The new NJR-T01SDI AV-over-IP encoder with SDI input is a welcome addition to the innovative IP-NINJAR product series.

IDK’s NJR-T01SDI is designed to transport SDI input signals for local and long-haul extension and switched systems via AV-over-IP on fiber optic cables.
