FN-8 Firmware Download(Latest) Download Version: 1.10 Size: 293.26MB Release Date: 2026-07-23 Version: 1.10 FN-7 and FN-8 are HD Universal IP Encoder/Decoder Cards designed by Kiloview for the unified ecosystem of the RF02 Rack Media Framework. Integrating encoding and decoding functions on a single card, they enable bidirectional conversion between up to 1080p60 SDI/HDMI signals and IP video streams. The FN-7 and FN-8 deliver full compatibility with mainstream AV over IP protocols including NDI HighBandwidth, NDI HX2, NDI HX3, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, HLS, UDP, RTP and WHIP. Deeply integrated with the RF02 Rack Media Framework, they enable centralized power supply, unified management, high-density deployment and flexible expansion. They are ideal for a wide range of applications, including broadcast television, professional AV, video conferencing, educational recording & streaming, and remote production. 1.Core Capabilities at Launch ①Video Encoding & Decoding: Supports 3G-SDI (FN-7) or HDMI (FN-8) input/output Supports both encoding and decoding modes Up to 1080p60 Supports SpeedHQ (NDI Codec), AVC (H.264), and HEVC (H.265) video encoding and decoding ②Supported Media Protocols: <NDI HighBandwidth / NDI HX2 / NDI HX3 / SRT / RTMP / RTSP / HLS / RTP / TS-UDP / WHIP ③Image Quality: Up to 1080p60 YCbCr 4:2:2 (NDI High Bandwidth) YCbCr 4:2:0 (H.264/H.265) 8-bit color depth ④Audio Capabilities: NDI Audio (PCM) AAC-LC ⑤Typical Encoding Bitrates: SpeedHQ (NDI CODEC): 1080p60@132Mbps, 1080p30@112Mbps, 720p60@105Mbps AVC (H.264): Adjustable bitrate from 2 Mbps to 40 Mbps HEVC (H.265): Adjustable bitrate from 2 Mbps to 40 Mbps 2.Hardware Form Factor Video Interfaces: 3G-SDI input/output (FN-7) / HDMI input/output (FN-8) / USB Type-A input (FN-7/FN-8) Audio Interfaces: 3G-SDI input/output (FN-7) / HDMI input/output (FN-8) / USB Type-A input (FN-7/FN-8) Network Interface: 1×1000 Mbps Ethernet (RF02 internal communication) Power Consumption & Supply: ≤ 6 W, supports PCIe power (RF02 Rack Media Framework) Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 45°C / -4℉ ~ 113℉ Storage Temperature: -20°C ~ 70°C / -4℉ ~ 158℉ 3.Core Featured Functions High-Density IP Encoding & Decoding Deployment: Leveraging the RF02 Rack Media Framework, it supports multi-card combined deployment, enabling flexible construction of high-density encoder, decoder, and hybrid encoding/decoding systems to significantly improve rack space utilization. SDI/HDMI and IP Bidirectional Conversion: A single card completes bidirectional conversion between traditional baseband signals and IP video streams, with free switching between encoding and decoding modes. PTZ Control: Supports precise control of external PTZ cameras via network control protocols. Kiloview AV over IP Ecosystem Compatibility: Works seamlessly with multiple Kiloview products and supports HTTP API for easy integration with third-party systems.
