Kiloview FN-50 Rackmount Card for N50

Kiloview FN-50 Rackmount Card for N50 is a 12G-SDI encoder/decoder built for high-bandwidth IP video workflows where signal integrity, format flexibility, and predictable behavior matter more than feature bloat. It bridges baseband SDI and IP using NDI, H.264, and H.265, while supporting UHD and HD formats up to 4K60.

Highlights

• 12G-SDI input and output with loop-out support for encoding or decoding paths
• UHD support up to 4K60 across SD, HD, and UHD video formats
• Multi-codec operation with NDI High Bandwidth, NDI HX, H.264, and H.265
• Wide protocol coverage for modern IP contribution and distribution workflows
• Low-power, slim form factor designed for dense rack or flypack builds

Quick Specs & Uses

• Input formats: SD, HD, and UHD via 12G-SDI, including 3840×2160p up to 60 fps
• Output formats: Progressive UHD and HD formats up to 4K60
• Interlaced handling: 1080i60 supported for both input and encoded output
• Color processing: 8-bit and 10-bit support across NDI-HB, NDI-HX, and NetStream
• Networking: Dual Gigabit Ethernet with a dedicated internal/RF02 interface

Why It Helps

In real systems, complexity usually shows up at the conversion points. FN-50 reduces that friction by handling encode, decode, and loop-through in a single unit, keeping SDI and IP workflows aligned without extra converters. It’s especially useful in control rooms, OB racks, and hybrid SDI/IP environments where format changes are frequent but downtime is not an option.

System Characteristics

• Supports HDR workflows with 8-bit and 10-bit color depth
• Handles multiple color spaces including YCbCr and RGB on decode
• NAS recording support enables centralized capture workflows
• Network PTZ control supported for IP-based camera systems
• Designed to operate reliably from −20 °C to +45 °C
