AMX-N26D001 vs FG1010-355 — Compare
AMX NMX-DEC-N2622S AMX N2600 Decoder, Dual Stream Codec vs AMX SDX-514M-DX Solecis 5x1 4K Muti-Format Digital Switcher with DXLink Output
The NMX-DEC-N2622S is a networked decoder for receiving and decoding compressed video streams from Dante AV networks, while the SDX-514M-DX is a switching hub that accepts multiple local video sources and distributes them via HDMI or DXLink. Choose the decoder for distributed AV systems where video arrives over Dante networks; choose the switcher for installations that need to route and scale multiple live input sources.

Frequently asked questions
Can these units work together in the same system?
Yes. The SDX-514M-DX could feed one of its outputs into a network encoder, whose output then feeds the NMX-DEC-N2622S at a remote location. However, each unit serves a different role in the signal chain—the switcher inputs and routes local sources, while the decoder receives and decompresses network-delivered streams.
Which handles more video formats?
The SDX-514M-DX explicitly supports a broader range of 4K modes including full 4K60 4:4:4, cinema 4K at multiple frame rates, and 4:2:0 at 60 Hz, plus Dolby TrueHD. The NMX-DEC-N2622S focuses on decoding 4K60 MWC codec and 1080p H.26x, optimized for network delivery rather than format variety.
Which is better for long cable runs?
The SDX-514M-DX, because its DXLink output transmits over shielded Ethernet up to 100 meters without signal loss, eliminating the need for expensive long HDMI cables. The NMX-DEC-N2622S assumes video arrives via Dante network and outputs via HDMI, which is shorter-distance.
Which requires less infrastructure to deploy?
The SDX-514M-DX is simpler if you have local video sources in one room and need to route them. The NMX-DEC-N2622S requires a Dante network backbone already in place, but excels when distributing the same video stream to multiple remote decoders.
