AV over IP Summit 2026: NDI, Dante, IPMX & SMPTE ST 2110
AV over IP Summit 2026: Exploring NDI, Dante, IPMX and SMPTE ST 2110
As video production continues to move from traditional SDI and HDMI connections to network-based workflows, understanding AV over IP technologies is becoming increasingly important for live production, broadcast, and professional AV.
As part of NDI November 2026, the AV over IP Summit brings together three live webinars exploring the technologies, infrastructure, and workflows shaping the future of networked video production.
Join us November 3–5, 2026, at 3 PM EST for three sessions covering NDI, Dante, Dante AV, IPMX, SMPTE ST 2110, H.265/HEVC, network design, and the transition from SDI to IP-based production workflows.
What Is the AV over IP Summit?
The AV over IP Summit is a three-day virtual event focused on the evolution of networked AV and video production. The sessions are designed to explore how technologies such as NDI, Dante, Dante AV, IPMX, and SMPTE ST 2110 are being used to build more flexible and scalable production environments.
The summit will also examine the practical considerations involved in moving from traditional point-to-point video connections toward IP-based workflows, including network infrastructure, interoperability, timing and synchronization, device discovery, control, and remote production.
November 3: From Pro AV to Live Production: Building Flexible, Reliable IP Workflows
The first session explores how IP technologies can connect professional AV and live production workflows.
Topics include:
- NDI for network-based video production
- Dante audio and Dante AV
- H.265/HEVC video compression
- Network design considerations
- Building efficient and reliable IP production workflows
The session focuses on the practical technology and infrastructure considerations involved in creating a networked production environment.
November 4: Bridging Pro AV and Broadcast: IPMX and SMPTE ST 2110
The second session examines the technologies connecting professional AV and broadcast environments.
Topics include:
- IPMX
- SMPTE ST 2110
- Interoperability between IP-based systems
- Timing and synchronization
- Device discovery and control
- Network infrastructure for reliable IP workflows
Understanding these technologies is increasingly important as production environments incorporate more network-based video, audio, and control.
November 5: Choosing the Right AV over IP Workflow
The final session focuses on the practical process of transitioning from traditional HDMI and SDI systems to IP-based production.
Topics include:
- Moving from HDMI and SDI to IP
- Evaluating AV over IP technology options
- Building flexible on-site production systems
- Extending production capabilities to remote locations
- Infrastructure considerations for networked workflows
The session is designed to help production teams understand the key technology and workflow decisions involved in building an AV over IP system.
Why AV over IP Matters for Modern Production
IP-based production can change how video, audio, and control signals move throughout a production environment. Instead of relying entirely on dedicated point-to-point connections, networked workflows can provide new ways to route, distribute, manage, and extend production signals.
Technologies including NDI, Dante AV, IPMX, and SMPTE ST 2110 address different requirements across professional AV, live production, and broadcast environments.
Understanding the differences between these technologies—and how they fit into a larger network infrastructure—is an important part of planning a modern IP production workflow.
