Introducing Your New N2300 Series Devices
Product Overview
The N2300 AV over IP Series belongs to the N-Series product family from AMX and consists of N2312 Encoders and N2322
Decoders. This series provides a flexible, feature-rich, and simple-to-deploy digital media distribution and switching solution that
can be used in 4K applications with resolutions up to 4096x2160, with support for HDCP 2.2. This motion-based wavelet codec
solution delivers video with nearly imperceptible latency at an incredibly low 200 Mb/s bandwidth allowing 4K distribution over
standard gigabit Ethernet networks.
Any source can be sent to one or more displays by routing through layer-2/layer-3 switches using standard Cat5e cable. Standard
features include input scaling, bi-directional serial, IR, embedded 7.1 audio, and KVM-over-IP extension. Card versions compatible
with the N-Series N9206 card cage are available for high-density applications.
Features include:
Design
flexibility
allows you to start as small as 1x1 and grow the system in increments of single sources and devices by
simply adding additional Encoders and Decoders.
Input and output scaling performed in Encoders or Decoders for maximum flexibility.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) eliminates the need for a local power supply and speeds installation. Units can still be powered
locally by 12VDC. This allows easy rack-mountable, high-density installations.
Infrared (IR) emitter connection allows control of low-cost, IR-only display devices.
Fast install with Phoenix connectors for power, IR, RS232 serial, and analog audio interfaces.
Pass-through HDMI interface allows easy installation with local display, such as desktop PC applications.
USB-A and USB-B connections for KVM applications.
Native NetLinx support provided. NetLinx Studio will easily recognize the device.
