Extron NAV 10E 101 10G Pro AV over IP 10G HDMI Encoder - Multimode

Product Description

The Extron NAV 10E 101 in its multimode fiber configuration is a 10G Pro AV-over-IP HDMI encoder that streams visually lossless 4K/60 video with 4:4:4 chroma sampling and audio across 10 Gbps optical Ethernet networks. Powered by Extron's patented PURE3 codec, this commercial-grade encoder delivers real-time, ultra-low-latency imagery at efficient bitrates, giving AV integrators the bandwidth headroom required for the most demanding 10G AV-over-IP distribution systems. The multimode fiber interface uses industry-standard LC connectors to extend AV signals up to 400 m (1,312 feet), making it well suited for in-building and campus deployments.

This 10G multimode fiber AV-over-IP encoder is engineered for simulation, command and control, medical diagnostics, and any environment where visually lossless distribution and interference immunity are essential. Because fiber optic transmission is inherently immune to electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, the NAV 10E 101 is a dependable choice for secure government, military, and medical installations. Adjustable bitrate settings allow the encoder to interoperate with NAV 1 Gbps endpoints, so AV integrators can build mixed 1G and 10G systems that scale to thousands of endpoints. The NAV 10E 101 requires the NAVigator System Manager for centralized configuration, monitoring, and IP-based matrix switching.

Need longer reach? Compare this multimode model with the NAV 10E 101 Singlemode encoder, which extends signals up to 10 km. Browse the full Extron AV-over-IP collection at Creation Networks to complete your NAV deployment.

Key Features

• 10G Fiber AV-over-IP Encoding — The NAV 10E 101 encodes and streams 4K/60 video with 4:4:4 chroma sampling and audio over 10 Gbps optical Ethernet for high-bandwidth distribution.
• PURE3 Codec — Extron's patented wavelet-based PURE3 codec delivers visually lossless video with ultra-low latency and advanced error concealment for reliable picture delivery.
• Multimode Fiber Reach — Industry-standard LC connectors extend AV signals up to 400 m (1,312 feet) over multimode fiber with inherent immunity to electromagnetic and RF interference.
• HDMI Input and Loop-Out — An HDMI input with local loop-out supports resolutions up to 4K/60 4:4:4 with full HDCP 2.3 compliance for protected content.
• 1G NAV Interoperability — Adjustable bitrate settings let the encoder stream to 1 Gbps NAV decoders, supporting mixed 1G and 10G AV-over-IP deployments.
• Intelligent Selective Streaming — PURE3 ISS leverages periods of low-motion content to reduce bandwidth while preserving lossless video quality.
• AES67 Audio over IP — The encoder transmits AES67 audio streams for integration with Extron DMP Plus DSPs and other IP-enabled audio components.
• Enterprise Security — Support for 802.1X network access control, SRTP stream encryption, and a certified FIPS 140-2 module protects sensitive AV signals on shared networks.
• Centralized Management — The required NAVigator System Manager provides centralized configuration, monitoring, diagnostics, and IP-based matrix switching across the NAV deployment.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the multimode and singlemode NAV 10E 101?

Both models are 10G AV-over-IP HDMI encoders that use the PURE3 codec. The difference is fiber reach: this multimode version extends signals up to 400 m (1,312 feet), while the singlemode version extends up to 10 km. Choose multimode for in-building or campus runs and singlemode for long-haul links.

Does the NAV 10E 101 require the NAVigator System Manager?

Yes. The NAV 10E 101 requires the Extron NAVigator System Manager for centralized configuration, monitoring, and IP-based matrix switching. The NAVigator manages NAV endpoints, performs quick switching, and handles bulk firmware upgrades.

Can the NAV 10E 101 work with 1 Gbps NAV endpoints?

Yes. Adjustable bitrate settings allow the 10G encoder to stream lower-bitrate video that 1 Gbps NAV decoders can decode, enabling mixed 1G and 10G AV-over-IP systems within a single managed deployment.

Why choose fiber over copper for this encoder?

Fiber optic transmission is inherently immune to electromagnetic and radio frequency interference and provides optical isolation, making the NAV 10E 101 well suited for secure government, military, and medical environments while supporting greater transmission distances than copper.

What network infrastructure does the NAV 10E 101 need?

The encoder operates over 10 Gbps optical Ethernet using LC-terminated multimode fiber. Network design should follow Extron's NAV deployment guidelines, and the NAVigator System Manager is required to operate the system.

What warranty and support are available?

Extron NAV products are backed by Extron's commercial warranty, and the included Everlast power supply carries a 7-year parts and labor warranty. For purchasing, lead times, and integration support, contact the Creation Networks team.
