The N9 is a high-performance multi-screen video switcher independently developed by NovaStar. Using high-performance video processing technologies, it is capable of processing and outputting ultra-high quality images. The N9 also provides powerful video signal receiving capability. It can support 9 inputs and 4 DVI outputs at the same time. A single N9 can load up to an 8KK screen, and multiple N9 units can be cascaded for output.
The N9 can work with NovaStar's desktop console C1 and make the operation of N9 on stage more convenient. It is also equipped with brand-new smart management software V-Can from NovaStar to provide richer image mosaic effects.
Thanks to the powerful capabilities of receiving and processing a variety of video signals, the N9 can be widely used in various scenarios, such as intermediate and high-end rental, stage control, media centres, big conference sites, exhibition sites and concert control centres.
