Crestron DM NVX 4K60 Network AV Encoder/Decoder CPU-Based Software, Single Stream - DM-NVX-SW-C310

DM NVX software is a flexible, IT-friendly companion to the DM NVX AV-over-IP hardware portfolio. The DM-NVX-SWC310 encoder/decoder offers a software solution that is interoperable with DM NVX encoder/decoder hardware devices, providing the flexibility to mix DM NVX software and hardware endpoints in a DM NVX system.¹ The platform enables visually lossless compression for crystal-clear video. Installation of DM-NVX-SW-C310 software on a computer enables DM NVX 4K60 encoding or decoding of a single AV stream over a Gigabit Ethernet network.²

Windows® Application
DM-NVX-SW-C310 software runs on the 64-bit version of the Microsoft® Windows 10 or Windows 11 operating system. The DM NVX software package has modest system requirements and runs on most modern Windows computers.

Real Time 4K60 Video Performance
Engineered for demanding conference room and classroom applications, DM NVX technology ensures real-time, fullmotion 4K60 video performance for the presentation of multimedia, videoconferencing, and live camera images. Interactive inputs from a gamepad or a mouse function seamlessly over DM NVX.

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. Variable Multicast TTL (Time To Live) enables traversing multiple network routers for optimal flexibility.

Pixel Perfect Processing Technology
Pixel Perfect Processing technology provides flawless video transport in all applications. Depending on the operating mode, DM-NVX-SW-C310 software can encode or decode a video signal to achieve imperceptible end-to-end latency. The source image quality is maintained across a 1-Gigabit network at any resolution up to 4K60.

Enterprise-Grade Security
A DM NVX system delivers a true enterprise-grade network AV solution. DM-NVX-SW-C310 software uses advanced security features and protocols such as AES-128 content encryption, PKI authentication, TLS, and HTTPS. Support for 802.1X authentication and Active Directory® credential management is dependent on the Windows operating system settings.

Encoder or Decoder Functionality
DM-NVX-SW-C310 software is configurable to operate as either a network AV encoder or decoder. As an encoder, DM-NVX-SW-C310 software enables the user to select the screen to be transmitted over the network to one or more decoders. As a decoder, DM-NVX-SW-C310 software receives the signal from a DM NVX encoder and feeds it to the viewer window. The decoder can quickly and easily switch between multiple encoders on the network. Encoder and decoder operating modes can be changed dynamically in less than one
minute by using a web browser or a control system.

Test Pattern Generator
When DM-NVX-SW-C310 software is configured as an encoder, the built-in test pattern generator can be used during setup to ensure that video streaming is functional and can also be used as a tool for the adjustment, calibration, and alignment of displays and projectors. The DM NVX encoder can send the test pattern to any routed DM NVX decoder.

Fixed Bit Rate
In DM NVX encoder mode, a web interface or control system can be used to set a fixed bit rate ranging from 150Mbps to 500 Mbps.

Network Adapter Selection
Network adapter selection enables network traffic to be segregated based on traffic type. For an encoder and decoder, the desired management network adapter can be selected for management traffic on the network. For an encoder only, the desired stream network adapter can be selected for the transmitted AV stream.

Web Server for Software Configuration
DM-NVX-SW-C310 software configuration is accomplished by using a web browser. Full control and monitoring of the software is enabled through control system integration.

Licensing
A license is required for DM-NVX-SW-C310 software on a per-computer basis for a single stream. DM-NVX-SW-C310 provides two licensing options: online licensing via the XiO Cloud® service or offline licensing via the USB-OFFLINE dongle.

For online licensing via the XiO Cloud service, the DM-NVXSW-C310 requires access to XiO Cloud to validate its licenses. An active XiO Cloud account is required, subject to the terms of the Crestron Cloudware License. However, a paid XiO Cloud subscription is not required to manage licenses for the DM-NVX-SW-C310.

For offline licensing via the USB-OFFLINE dongle, the dongle must be connected to the computer to validate the license. The license must be ordered and the Offline License form must be completed prior to validating the license. For more information, refer to the DM-NVX-SW-C310 Product Manual. Any existing DM-NVX-SW-C310 licenses within the XiO Cloud service cannot be converted to offline licenses. If switching your DM-NVX-SW-C310 installation from online to offline licensing mode, a new license must be purchased.

A license is required for DM‑NVX-SW-C310 software on a per‑computer basis for a single stream. Online licensing is available through the XiO Cloud® service. DM‑NVX-SW-C310 software requires access to the XiO Cloud service to validate licensing. An active XiO Cloud account subject to the terms of the Crestron Cloudware License Agreement is required; however, a paid XiO Cloud subscription is not required, The XiO Cloud Account Registration form is available on the Crestron website to associate a DM‑NVX-SW-C310 license with an XiO Cloud account.
