Nautel-NV-Series

More Solid State Power,
More Control

Nautel’s NV Series launch a whole new class of broadcast transmitters and challenge traditional transmitter design. Start with unheard of solid state power of 44 kW or even 88 kW. Then add integral digital exciters, extensive architectural redundancy and advanced control via a 17″ touch screen monitor or web access. Purpose designed for the digital future, already over 1,000 NV transmitters have been deployed putting it on track to be one of the most successful transmitter designs ever.

NV Series features:

  • Quad mode: Analog, HD Radio, hybrid, DRM+
  • Advanced instrumentation and management
  • 17″ touch screen interface
  • 100% of local interface via the web
  • RF and audio spectrum analyzers
  • Integral digital exciter(s) with pre-correction
  • Plug-in upgrade to HD Radio Exgine
  • Frequency agile, soft-fail, redundancy
  • Compact footprints

Nautel-Transmitter-NV-Series-High-Power-Solid-State

AFFORDABLE, RELIABLE HIGH POWER
(NO TUNING, NO TUBES)

For the first time ever high power, solid state is affordable with outputs up to 88 kW. That means more power for digital and more power for increased IBOC injection levels.

Unlike traditional high power solutions the NV series eliminates single points of failures. Your NV can loose fans, power supplies, power amplifiers, IPAs, whole power modules, even its user interface and stay on the air. Its simple air cooling also makes the NV’s high power easy to deploy.

REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH
TO UI AND EXCITER

Traditional designs put features and display capabilities into a very expensive external exciter rather than the transmitter. If you want exciter redundancy you need to purchase two of these expensive devices and end up with two displays.

Nautel challenged this design approach by consolidating all of the advanced control right inside the transmitter where it can provide the most benefit. Then we added a giant 17” touch screen and let you access the same advanced control anywhere on the web.

By eliminating outboard exciters you save money, get even more advanced features and gain centralized control over all transmitter functions including the exciter(s). In fact the exciters are so cost effective that many customers buy two.

Nautel-Transmitter-NV-Series-Remote-Access

FULL CONTROL WHEREVER YOU ARE

All NV Series transmitters include Nautel’s Advanced User Interface (AUI) with 17” touch screen monitor and web access. Whether you are on-site in front of your transmitter or at home on the web, 100% of the AUI is available to help you manage your transmitter.

Imagine knowing in advance what parts and tools you’ll need at the transmitter site. Having that much control remotely can help you avoid trips, save time and save money.

BUILT IN INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL

Built in commercial grade instrumentation can mean even more savings and helps you optimize your on-air signal. Advanced control features include:

  • RF and audio spectrum analyzers
  • Comprehensive monitoring and control to the sub-module level
  • Extensive logging of all events
  • SNMP support
  • Email notifications

Nautel-Transmitter-NV-Series-Digital-Radio

DESIGNED FOR DIGITAL

Whether you intend to broadcast digitally now or in the future your NV Series will be ready. While most transmitter designs have been adapted to address the digital broadcasting era, Nautel engineers started fresh to ensure the NV Series would offer the best possible digital radio performance.

The transmitter supports adaptive pre-correction and even accepts I&Q directly to permit a plug-in HD Radio Exgine or easy upgrade to DRM+ transmission.

To meet the toughest demands for digital power and coverage, Nautel invented HD PowerBoost and was the first to offer Asymmetrical sidebands. You’ll ensure optimal performance by utilizing the built in instrumentation.

PROVEN RELIABILITY AND
EASE OF OWNERSHIP

Like every Nautel ever built the NV Series incorporates solid state components in rugged, highly redundant, hot swap architecture. Common modules across the family minimize spares requirements.

Compact footprints, published parts lists and screw driver replaceable power FETS make living with your NV transmitter easy for years to come.
