NV-21-HU Product Introduction

I'm super excited to be here today to talk about the nv21.

Every time we hold one of these events,

usually the first thing that shows up in the chat is,

“When are we getting another NV Series device?”

So let's talk about the nv21.

It is a two input one output Network video endpoint with both HDMI and USBC type signaling…

so this, in addition to its form factor,

provides you another option on how to integrate NV Series into your systems

so you can choose based on size of the device,

power requirements, or signaling.

You can connect it and power it via the network or you can use an auxiliary power supply.

When you do use that auxiliary power supply,

which we're selling and making available in the August time frame,

you're actually able to use the USB type-c connector to provide device charging.

A true single cable solution that lets you stream video and audio onto the network Bridge,

our camera and audio feeds,

and charge your laptop so the meeting may be mentally draining,

but at least your battery on your laptop is going to be safe.

So let's take a look at some of the different modes that it could operate in.

As an encoder, you can choose whether or not you want it to operate in HDMI mode or USB type c mode

and that's a simple mode selection that you can configure from a Q-SYS touchpanel.

You can configure programmatically based on time of day,

however you wish to trigger that, you're able to do so in HDMI mode.

I connect my device via HDMI connection for video and audio distribution.

This enables Legacy laptops that don't have a USB type-c connector.

It enables sources that don't have USBC at all like cable boxes, media players.

If you're the last person still supporting VCRs and higher education,

hopefully we can get you what you need

and then you can use the USB type-c connector to provide audio and video bridging  

usb hid routing to your host device,

so like the nv32 two cable solution,

to get everything all in one button.

USB type c mode I can plug in my laptop and I get the  

same experience that I've had working from home

day in day out for the last three and a half years of this temporary pandemic

where I connect to my Dock and all of a sudden I've got my video screens,

I've got my camera, my audio system, and I'm charging my device,

So that's available and switchable now when we're in the decoder mode

which is a simple switch inside Q-SYS designer software.

We are able to have those same local connections and the same formats

but also receive Network content and that can  

be from an nv32 or another nv21 because we're using Q-SYS shift.

So Q-SYS shift is our proprietary compression algorithm.

It is Network optimized.

The right kind of combination between bandwidth, latency, and quality…

so what we're able to do is deliver incredibly high  

quality low latency video streams up to 4K 60 444

over a standard gigabit Network and it's interoperable with our own products.

So the nv32 can stream to the nv21 or vice versa,

allowing you to put the product where you need it  

based again on its density of IO or its type of IO.

Q-SYS shift prioritizes quality and when we have very low movement content,

like a riveting spreadsheet or a dynamic PowerPoint that just sits there on the screen,

you can be observing bandwidth as low as eight to ten megabits per second

while having completely perfect pixel reproduction across your network infrastructure.

But when we get into some, you know, more fast-moving fun content like Big Buck Bunny here,

incredible film if you've never watched it,

you're able to accommodate those incredibly High movements with a much higher bit rate

and still have all the quality you need  to avoid tearing in other artifacts.
