Description
AMX NMX-ENC-N2612S-C AMX N2600 Encoder Card, Dual Stream Codec
The NMX-ENC-N2612S-C is a professional-grade encoder card built for live sound engineers and touring AV teams who need rock-solid video distribution and streaming across networked systems. This dual-stream codec card integrates seamlessly into AMX's modular ecosystem, enabling flexible video encoding across multiple simultaneous streams without requiring external encoding appliances—critical when you're managing complex multi-room or multi-venue setups.
Encoding & Video Performance
Supporting 4K60 4:4:4 MWC codec alongside 1080p H.26x encoding, this card delivers high-quality video compression suitable for both local distribution and network streaming. The dual-stream architecture allows independent encoding chains, enabling different quality profiles or destination networks to be served simultaneously from a single card—essential for live events where you need broadcast feeds and secondary distribution running at different specs.
Connectivity & Integration
Built-in HDMI video input, balanced audio connection, and Dante AV-A integration provide direct compatibility with professional broadcast and networked audio systems. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE+) eliminates the need for dedicated power supplies on the road, while Virtual Network USB 2.0 Hub technology supporting up to 4 decoders enables flexible control and device management across distributed installations—reducing cable runs and setup complexity in packed racks and touring rigs.
