NDI stands for Network Device Interface, a technology that allows video, audio, and data to be shared over a network. It was developed by NewTek.Â
How does NDI work?
- NDI is a royalty-free protocol that transmits video over IP.
- It delivers high-definition video over an Ethernet connection.Â
- NDI can be used to share video between different scenarios, such as in telemedicine, courtrooms, and video production.Â
NDI use cases:
- Telemedicine:Â NDI can improve remote medical consultations and diagnostics.
- Courtrooms:Â NDI can be used to stream live video from courtrooms to the public online.
- Video production:Â NDI can be used to share video between different locations in a remote, collaborative, or virtual production.Â
NDI can be used in conjunction with other video technologies, such as:Â AI, Cloud-based video, IoT, Smart cities, and Hybrid learning and work.Â
Feature-rich encoders, decoders and management software for remote production, contribution and IP workflows
Live, IP-based media transport has become an integral part of professional production workflows, offering users exceptional flexibility while helping reduce deployment costs. However, many production and AV professionals have significant investments in equipment with traditional baseband connectivity such as HDMI or SDI, and many facilities and venues still use baseband video infrastructures.
Magewell’s feature-rich NDI® and SRT encoders and decoders seamlessly bridge traditional and IP media infrastructures by easily bringing SDI or HDMI signals into and out of IP production workflows and AV-over-IP networks. The Control Hub software further enhances these workflows with centralised, multi-device management and powerful stream management features.

The Control Hub software further enhances these workflows with centralised, multi-device management and powerful stream management features.
Compact, standalone NDI® hardware encoders
Encode HDMI or SDI signals up to 4K at 60fps into high-bandwidth NDI® with very low latency.
NDI® and live streaming decoder hardware
Decode full-bandwidth NDI®, NDI®|HX, SRT and other streaming formats for HDMI or SDI output.
Centralized device and stream management software
Decode full-bandwidth NDI®, NDI®|HX, SRT and other streaming formats for HDMI or SDI output.
Solutions for NDI®|HX Workflows
NDI®|HX offers a high-efficiency, lower-bitrate alternative to full-bandwidth NDI® while still providing excellent visual quality. Magewell’s Ultra Encode and Ultra Encode AIO live media encoders can encode HDMI or SDI inputs into NDI®|HX, while all Pro Convert decoder models can receive and decode NDI®|HX streams.
Universal live media encoder for streaming and IP workflows
Encode HDMI or SDI sources into formats and protocols including NDI®|HX, SRT and more, up to 1080p60.
Advanced live media encoder for streaming, recording and IP workflows
Encode HDMI or SDI signals into NDI®|HX, SRT (H.264 or H.265) or other protocols at resolutions up to 4K at 30fps.
Compact, multi-format IP decoder hardware
Decode full-bandwidth NDI®, NDI®|HX, SRT and other streaming formats for HDMI or SDI output.
Centralized device and stream management software
Remotely configure and control multiple Magewell IP encoders and decoders, plus optional SRT relay and protocol conversion.
Solutions for SRT Streaming
The SRT protocol – developed and open-sourced by Haivision – enables secure, reliable, low-latency delivery of high-quality video even over unpredictable networks like the public internet. Magewell’s Ultra Encode and Ultra Encode AIO live media encoders can encode SRT streams with H.264 or H.265 compression, and all Pro Convert decoder models can receive and decode SRT streams.
