Kiloview converters and encoders for NDI and IP video.

Kiloview hardware moves video between SDI or HDMI and the network, decodes streams back to displays, records NDI sources and bonds cellular links in the field. Each model supports its own mix of formats and protocols. Varto Technologies in East Rutherford, NJ quotes Kiloview on its own, or designs it into the network and production system.

// choose by direction

Start with which way the video has to go.

A Kiloview unit is chosen by direction first, then by connector, resolution and the protocol at the other end.

Both ways

SDI or HDMI ⇄ NDI

N60 · N50 · N40 Plus · N3-s
One box encodes or decodes, so a converter can feed a camera to the network or a network source to a monitor.
See the converters
Out to the network

SDI, HDMI or USB → NDI|HX, SRT, RTMP

E3
Compressed encoding for streaming, remote contribution and NDI|HX networks, with recording to USB or NAS.
See the E3
Back to displays

Network streams → HDMI and SDI

D350 · D260
Decoders for monitors, projectors and multiview walls.
See the decoders
Into a room

Network streams → USB, HDMI, DisplayPort

U4
Puts an NDI or SRT source into Teams, Zoom or Meet as a plain USB camera, with no driver and no capture card.
See the dock
Between protocols

One IP protocol ⇄ another

MG300v2
A gateway that takes in several streams at once and re-sends each one in more than one protocol.
See the gateway
Into files

NDI → MOV or MP4

CUBE R1
Multi-channel NDI recording with playback.
See CUBE R1
In from the field

SDI or HDMI → bonded cellular

P3 · P3 Mini
Bonded encoders that combine cellular, Wi-Fi and Ethernet links.
See the field encoders

// ndi converters

Converters that encode and decode.

Every converter here works in both directions. The NDI modes and protocols differ by model.

Model	Video	NDI modes	Other protocols	Power
N60	4K HDMI in and out, up to 4096x2160p60	High Bandwidth, HX2, HX3	SRT, RTMP, RTSP and HLS both ways; TS over UDP, RTP and WHIP when encoding	PoE
N50	12G-SDI in and out, up to 4K60	High Bandwidth, HX2, HX3	SRT, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, UDP, RTP and WHIP, encoding and decoding	PoE
N40 Plus	4K HDMI in and out, up to 4096x2160p60	High Bandwidth only	None listed	PoE, DC or USB
N6 / N5	N6 HDMI, N5 3G-SDI, in and out to 1080p60; also takes a USB camera	High Bandwidth, HX2, HX3	None listed	PoE or DC
N3-s	3G-SDI in and out, up to 1080p60	High Bandwidth only	None listed	PoE

The N60 and N50 also record to card, USB or NAS, carry tally, control PTZ cameras over serial or the network, and handle 1080i in and out for facilities still running interlaced. Both have two gigabit ports that can be bonded, with PoE on the first. Kiloview labels them NDI 6.3 compatible.

The N6 and N5 turn a plain USB webcam into an NDI source, which is often the cheapest way to get a fixed camera onto the network. In decode mode the N40 Plus switches between stored NDI sources without a black frame. None of these converters is listed with SMPTE ST 2110.

// encode and decode

Encoders for streams, decoders for screens.

E3 encoder

Inputs: 3G-SDI to 1080p60, HDMI to 4K30, both with loop-out, plus USB
Codecs: H.265, H.264, M-JPEG
Protocols: NDI HX3 and HX2, SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, WHIP, HLS, TS over UDP, RTSP. Not full-bandwidth NDI.
At once: Up to eight streams to different destinations, with a backup destination behind each one
Also: Encodes SDI and HDMI together or as picture in picture, records MP4, MOV or TS to USB or NAS, runs on PoE

D350 and D260 decoders

Model	Outputs	Decodes	Capacity
D350	Two HDMI to 4K60 and one 3G-SDI to 1080p60. Two of the three carry picture at a time	NDI High Bandwidth, HX2, HX3, SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, HLS, Zixi, TS over UDP, RTP, RTSP	Up to 12 streams at 1080p60 or two at 4K60 (H.264); multiview to 16 windows; PoE
D260	Two HDMI and one 3G-SDI to 1080p60	NDI HX2 and HX3 (not High Bandwidth), SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, HLS, UDP, RTP, RTSP	Up to four streams at 1080p60 with a four-window multiview

// gateway and room dock

Translating between protocols, and into the meeting room.

Two boxes for the joins: one that re-sends a stream in a protocol the other end can read, and one that hands an IP source to a computer as an ordinary USB camera.

MG300v2 media gateway

Converts: NDI High Bandwidth and HX2 or HX3, SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, RTSP, TS over UDP and HLS, in either direction
At once: Up to nine incoming streams, each re-sent in as many as four protocols
Also decodes: To 3G-SDI and 4K HDMI, in layouts from two 4K60 windows to sixteen at 720p

U4 IP video dock

The U4 decodes NDI High Bandwidth, HX2 and HX3, SRT, RTSP, RTMP, TS over UDP, RTP and HLS, and presents the picture to a computer as a standard UVC camera and UAC audio device. Teams, Zoom and Meet see it without a driver or a capture card.

The same source goes out of HDMI and DisplayPort at up to 4K60 at the same time, so the room display and the local monitor follow the call. It runs on USB-C power.

// record and route

Recording and routing on the NDI network.

CUBE R1 NDI recorder

Records up to four NDI High Bandwidth channels at 4K60, or nine channels at 1080p60, to MOV or MP4. It keeps the native SpeedHQ files or records H.264 and H.265, and plays back one channel while it records.

Files go to two hot-swappable Kiloview Storage Sticks or to NAS, where editors can open them while recording continues. Channel counts drop when playback, transcoding or NAS recording run at the same time.

CUBE X1 NDI router

Routes and redistributes NDI sources, with a touchscreen and hardware buttons for operators who want a panel instead of software.

// in from the field

Bonded encoders for remote contribution.

P3: Bonds up to six links: four removable 5G or 4G modules, Wi-Fi and Ethernet. SDI, HDMI to 4K30 and USB inputs. NDI HX2 today; Kiloview says HX3 will follow in a firmware update.
P3 Mini: Bonds up to five links: three 4G modules, Wi-Fi and Ethernet. SDI, HDMI and USB to 1080p60, with a 3-inch touchscreen and a battery good for about four hours of streaming.
Receiving: KiloLink Server Pro software, which Kiloview offers free for its devices, the KiloLink Station hardware receiver with SDI outputs, or a Cradle Series RF02 in the rack.

Cellular service, data plans and SIMs are separate from the hardware, and each carrier and SIM should be tested before a first event.

// buying through varto

Why buy Kiloview through Varto?

We specify Kiloview conversion in the broadcast and IP systems we design, and we build the networks that NDI and streaming depend on.

SELECT: The unit that fits both ends.We match direction, connector, resolution, NDI mode, protocol and power to the source, the destination and your switcher.
QUOTE: Equipment on its own is welcome.Ask for a converter, a decoder or a recorder. No project is required.
INTEGRATE: Built into a network that carries it.We plan switching, addressing, bandwidth and NDI discovery with your IT staff, then configure and commission each unit on the current firmware. Integration
TRAIN: Staff learn the signal path.Training on the units, the software and what to check when a stream misbehaves. Training
