NIA-1 Network Interface Adapter

The NIA-1 expands LBUS via Ethernet and enables IP workflows for cine and live applications. It enables lens and camera control via IP networks, extended control of 3rd party cameras (Hi-5 license required), synchronized control of multiple lenses with one ECS control unit like Hi-5, long-range cable connection via Ethernet and much more. Setup and configuration are fast and easy, with the NIA-1 automatically managing complex network settings, although manual IP configuration is also an option when incorporating the NIA-1 into advanced networks.

The NIA-1 opens the door to a new world of lens and camera control possibilities. It can be used to remotely control lens or camera settings over IP networks. For simple setups, two NIA-1 units can be connected with an Ethernet cable up to 100 m long, or a fiber optic cable if longer distances need to be covered. It offers exciting possibilities for live broadcast productions, complementing ARRI’s ALEXA 35 Live – Multicam System and is also compatible with CSS products such the 360 EVO stabilized remote head. Another application of the NIA-1 is multi-camera setups and it now possible to control lens motors simultaneous - including synchronized focus pulls with one Hi-5 even with different lens types and focal lengths. The NIA-1 also improves and extends control of third-party cameras from within the ARRI ecosystem.

At first customer shipment, the NIA-1 will offer compatibility with Blackmagic URSA Cine and Sony BURANO cameras, activated through permanent licenses that can be purchased in the same way as other Hi-5 licenses. The possibilities of NIA-1 applications are endless and include control of ARRI lens motors or cameras from third-party devices via IP. For this reason, ARRI is extending its partner program and encouraging third-party vendors to integrate ARRI ECS into their hardware and software products — from motion control robots to virtual production tools, and more besides.

Sliding directly into the dovetail interfaces of NIA-1, LCUBE CUB-1, and LCUBE CUB-2, this sprung-loaded bracket ensures fast and secure attachment. It features a robust knurled wheel for quick, tool-free mounting to any 3/8-16 ARRI Pin-Lock mounting point.
