New AV Demands in Smart Campuses

As educational informatization continues to converge with advanced audiovisual technologies, campus information publishing is no longer limited to traditional applications such as premium lecture capture and campus TV broadcasting. Modern campuses require real-time, stable, and high-definition distribution of AV signals to every classroom, lecture hall display, and outdoor LED screen. This shift places higher demands on AV infrastructure: schools increasingly require systems that combine 4K ultra-HD quality, cost efficiency, real-time multi-terminal streaming, and seamless interoperability with studio environments—an integrated capability set that defines the next generation of campus AV systems.

NDI Empowers Campus AV Publishing

As a new-generation high-performance AV-over-IP technology, NDI demonstrates distinct advantages in building a unified campus publishing and distribution system:

Ultra-HD and low latency for superior experience

Delivers 4K UHD video with low latency, ensuring clarity and smoothness.

High interoperability and scalability

Provides excellent interoperability with existing campus networks, supporting cross-area and multi-scenario scheduling and distribution.

All-hardware architecture stable and easy to use

Professional encoders and decoders handle end-to-end capture, routing, and display, ensuring robust system stability and simplified operation.

IP-based all-in-one architecture

Standard IP networking carries the full AV stack, streamlining architecture and lowering total cost.

Kiloview Solution

— Building a Highly Connected Smart AV Campus

The Kiloview NDI-based campus publishing & distribution system consists of NDI encoders, NDI matrix (or media gateway), NDI decoders, and a centralized management platform, creating a complete closed loop of capture, scheduling, display, and management:

Capture

NDI encoders convert HDMI signals (cameras, lecture capture systems, PC outputs, etc.) from campus studios, recording classrooms, and event venues into NDI streams for the campus LAN.

Scheduling

An NDI matrix or media gateway centrally switches, routes, and distributes multiple NDI streams, supporting flexible scheduling and multi-view monitoring.

Display

NDI decoders deployed across classrooms, lecture halls, offices, and outdoor LED walls restore NDI streams to HDMI for real-time playback.

Extended Functions

Integrates optional NDI multi-channel recording and multi-view monitoring for recording, supervision, and replay.

Operations & Management

All devices are managed remotely through a unified platform, enabling monitoring, bulk configuration, and firmware upgrades, significantly reducing O&M cost.

Topology

High-Quality, Fully Connected, Cost-Efficient AV Experience

Kiloview’s NDI-based campus publishing & distribution solution delivers:

Lower Cost

Leverage IP transmission to reduce cabling and specialized hardware expenses, while centralized O&M minimizes labor and maintenance costs.

Ease of Use

Plug-and-play devices with flexible signal scheduling for efficient operation.

Superior Experience

4K UHD and ultra-low-latency transmission ensure smooth visuals, real-time interaction, and immersive experiences for online teaching and large-scale events.

Deep Integration

Seamless interconnection of AV signals across multiple spaces, enabling cross-scenario collaboration and centralized device management.

Flexible Scalability

Open, IP-based architecture enables seamless integration of new functions and endpoints, supporting continuous smart campus upgrades.

Need for Interconnected Multi-Campus Audio-Video Systems

With the expansion of multi-campus layouts in modern education, there is a growing demand for cross-regional sharing of high-quality resources. Building an interconnected audio-video system across campuses has become crucial. However, traditional baseband transmission solutions have clear limitations:

  • Signals are usually confined to a single campus, preventing connectivity between spaces like studios, control centers, and lecture halls;
  • Isolated signal systems across campuses require separate staffing, increasing operational costs and coordination challenges;
  •  Cross-campus events often need repeated equipment and personnel deployments, reducing efficiency.

Therefore, integrated audio-video solutions that enable resource sharing and multi-scenario centralized management are increasingly vital for efficient teaching management and resource sharing across campuses.

Core Advantages of NDI IP-Based Upgrades

To address multi-campus audio-video interconnection needs, NDI’s lightweight IP-based architecture naturally fits these requirements. Its technical strengths directly tackle key challenges:

Efficient Interconnection

IP-based networks enable seamless signal transmission and exchange across campuses, directly addressing the core issue of cross-campus collaboration.

Unified Scheduling and Monitoring

All signals converge at a central control center, enabling real-time scheduling, unified monitoring, and coordinated control of resources across campuses.

Simplified Deployment

Leveraging existing IP networks reduces installation complexity and costs.

Kiloview NDI Multi-Campus Centralized

Live Broadcasting Solution

Kiloview’s solution integrates NDI encoders/decoders, PTZ cameras, distribution systems, recording systems, and production systems to build a complete NDI IP-based ecosystem.

Capture

SDI/HDMI signals are converted to NDI IP signals via NDI encoders and integrated into the network. NDI PTZ cameras can also be directly connected and controlled remotely.

Central Control Center

A local network connects multiple campuses. All NDI signals are duplicated, switched, and distributed via an NDI distribution system, then transmitted for monitoring on NDI multi-screen displays or recorded by NDI recording systems for live broadcasting.

Display

Branch campuses use large screens or SDI/HDMI receivers equipped with NDI decoders to convert NDI signals for interactive display with the main campus.

Maintenance

All NDI encoder/decoder nodes are integrated into a centralized management platform, supporting remote maintenance and reducing operational efforts.

Topology

One System Breaks Campus Barriers

Centralized equipment scheduling at the main campus, with branch campuses only needing lightweight terminal access.

The main campus central control center manages all signals across campuses.

Cross-campus activities are enabled using existing networks.
