Welcome to the Future
What is NDI®?
Your new P120 camera has been designed to support the cutting edge NDI® video transmission standard.
NDI® (Network Device Interface) is a high-quality, low-latency, frame-accurate standard that enables compatible
devices to communicate, deliver, and receive high definition video over your existing Gigabit Ethernet network.
Operating bi-directionally, NDI® devices can be auto-detected, powered and controlled over the same Ethernet
cable used to send the video and audio. If you have a Gigabit network, you have the potential for a streamlined,
interconnected, video production environment.
With the introduction of NDI® 5, you can now securely share network sources between remote sites anywhere in
the world - on a single network port. Even a smartphone can be a NDI® source.
Transitioning to NDI® can also occur gradually. Existing SDI or HDMI signals can easily be converted to an NDI®
stream and piped where required on your network and converted back only at the neccessary endpoints.
BirdDog has been on the NDI® journey since the very beginning, and your P120 is just one of our products designed
to take advantage of the features and potential of NDI®.
