NDI, the plug-and-play connectivity standard, has been named an official Crestron Integrated Partner. Crestron offers NDI support on the Crestron 1 Beyond line of broadcast-quality PTZ cameras and Automate VX multi-camera speaker tracking solution. These products are designed to bring equity and boost interactivity to meeting room applications, a critical use case for pro AV. The integration allows Crestron to use NDI as a protocol to simplify video workflows.
Crestron’s 1 Beyond cameras and Automate VX solution are used with video conferencing platforms such as Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms software to level up the experience in meeting rooms of all sizes with clear, crisp intelligent video. By integrating NDI interfaces into its cameras, Creston has simplified the cabling for installation as a single ethernet cable can carry power, control, and video. For high profile or multi-purpose spaces that require a high camera count, NDI protocol ensures high-quality video with easy connectivity. Additionally, the integration significantly contributes to NDI’s ecosystem with uniquely capable camera products that are ready to be specified into any NDI workflow, fostering the adoption and standardisation of best-of-breed technologies in pro AV. The integration of NDI features into Crestron’s products demonstrates the benefits of professional-grade tools and functionalities to their customers.
“Becoming a Crestron Integrated Partner marks a significant milestone for NDI,” said Charles Dobson, business development at NDI. “Crestron’s position as the market leader in pro AV, combined with their innovative PTZ camera line, positions us to drive forward the adoption of NDI technology and demonstrate how NDI’s capabilities enhance the quality and performance of Crestron’s ecosystem.”
