NDI can transform your network into a seamless energy and data ecosystem. Through a single cable, you can deliver power, control, and performance.
Discover why NDI with PoE is redefining how devices connect, power up and create.
Deploy devices anywhere using only a network cable, with no need to hunt for power outlets.
Quickly add more cameras, lights, and monitors for events, temporary installations, and large environments.
Manage lights, cameras, audio and automation from a single network.
Minimize visible cables for clean installations in studios, offices and homes.
NDI technology allows devices to communicate over IP for high-quality, low-latency video and audio, along with metadata and control sharing. PoE supplies power and data through a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power sources for devices like cameras, computers, and lights, and enabling streamlined installations. Â
The result is a flexible, plug and play network where a single cable per device carries everything you need.Â
Number of cables requiredÂ
One cable carries video, audio, control, and power
Requires separate cables for video, power, and control
Ease of installation
Simply plug into a network switch and go
More complex, as it needs dedicated cables to each device
Flexibility & setup changes
Move devices anywhere on the network, allowing flexibility
Limited — cable lengths and routing restrict placement
Distance capabilities
Can run long distances over standard network cabling
HDMI is short range; SDI can go longer but both need special and expensive cabling for long distance connection
Scalability
Easy to scale, as it allows to connect more devices to the networkÂ
Each device needs new cable runs making it harder to scale
Type of infrastructure needed
Uses standard IT network equipment already in many buildings
May require special switches, converters, or patch panels
Power delivery
PoE powers devices directly through the same cable
Requires separate power adapters or power outlets
Remote control & managementÂ
Built-in — control cameras and devices over the network
Only possible with extra control cables or systems
Ideal use cases
Modern studios, classrooms, corporate AV, streaming, PTZ cameras setups, small worship venues
Traditional broadcast rooms, fixed cable installations
