Yamaha: One of the First Companies Certified as an NDI IP Video and Audio Transmission System in a Network Switch - Our network switches are now NDI standard-compatible, enabling the long-distance transmission of video, audio, and metadata.

Since entering the network device market in 1995, Yamaha products have been installed in numerous workplaces, including corporate offices and retail stores, earning an excellent reputation for quality and reliability. Our network switches, which are part of our professional audio product lineup, are highly regarded for their stability in transmitting multiple audio channels over long distances.

NDI (Network Device Interface) is a groundbreaking video connectivity standard that enables seamless transmission of high-quality video, audio, and metadata over standard IP networks. By leveraging NDI technology, devices such as cameras, switchers, and media servers on the same network can automatically discover and connect with one another, eliminating the need for complex configurations or dedicated cabling.

Now, to provide reliable and cost-effective solutions for the Pro AV/IT industry—which demands infrastructure capable of supporting high-quality video and audio transmission—our core network switch models, listed on the table below, have been updated and certified to be compatible with the NDI connectivity standard*1.

This connectivity standard empowers our customers to access and utilize a vast number of video sources within their network, significantly enhancing the flexibility and scalability of live production workflows. Whether for live events, conferences, broadcasts, or post-production, NDI transforms traditional video production by seamlessly integrating all sources on the network.
