Highlights
- Centralized digital signal processing, amplification, and Bluetooth transmission in a single unit, removing the need for separate DSP, amplifier, and Bluetooth transmitter hardware.
- Six RJ45 connections for HDX audio bars and microphone pods, supporting single-cable runs to each component.
- Processes the microphone arrays in all connected bars and pods together through a unified coverage map, creating one room-spanning virtual array rather than separate zones.
- USB 2.0 Type-C interface to a room computer or collaboration appliance for plug-and-play use with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet.
- Four balanced analog inputs and two balanced analog outputs on 3.5 mm Euroblock, plus a balanced 1/4 inch subwoofer output, for presenter microphones, assistive listening, and in-room reinforcement.
- Integrated Auracast transmitter and Bluetooth LE radio for built-in assistive listening and Nureva App access.
- Automatically detects component locations and recalibrates, so no DSP programming is required at commissioning or after a room change.
Ideal For
- Lecture halls, training rooms, and large classrooms deploying an HDX bar and pod configuration
- Divisible rooms that switch between combined and divided modes without added control hardware
- Executive boardrooms and extra-large meeting rooms requiring full-room pickup and voice lift
- Replacement or spare stock for existing HDX deployments
- Multi-room and multi-site standardization managed through Nureva Console
- Rooms requiring built-in assistive listening under accessibility requirements
- Camera tracking and auto-switching designs that consume 3D sound location data

Nureva HDX-HUB System Hub for HDX Series Audio Systems
The Nureva HDX-HUB is the processing and connectivity center of every HDX audio system. It houses the digital signal processing, amplification, and Bluetooth transmission that would otherwise require separate rack components, and it connects the room's audio bars and microphone pods over single RJ45 runs. Its defining function is the unified coverage map: rather than processing each bar and pod as an independent device, the hub processes all physical microphone arrays together as one array spanning the entire room, which reduces the mixing and switching artifacts common to zoned or beamforming systems.
The hub is a system component rather than a standalone audio solution, so it should be specified as part of a complete HDX configuration or ordered as a spare for an existing deployment. On the room side, it presents a single USB Type-C connection to a room computer or collaboration appliance, and provides analog Euroblock input and output for presenter microphones, assistive listening equipment, and a subwoofer. Before deployment, confirm the number of bars and pods the room requires against the six available RJ45 component ports, confirm structured cabling paths from the hub location to each component, plan for two network drops if both Console Direct management and LAN access are required, and note that AES67 AV-over-IP is listed by Nureva as a future capability rather than a shipping feature.

Licensing, Warranty & Support
Nureva provides a standard two-year limited hardware warranty on the system hub, with accessories and cables covered for 30 days. Extended coverage is available through Nureva Pro extensions (NP-1Y, NP-2Y, NP-3Y). Complete HDX systems ship with a two-year Nureva Pro service plan. When the hub is purchased separately as a spare or replacement, confirm current service plan terms at the time of order. Nureva Console and the Nureva App are included with HDX systems, and Console Direct provides a secure managed connection using device-specific X.509 certificates and TLS-encrypted services, backed by an ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified information security management system.
VideoConferenceGear.com Assistance
We can help you determine whether a hub is needed as a spare, a replacement, or part of a complete HDX configuration, and confirm that your bar and pod count fits within the six available component ports. We can review structured cabling paths from the hub to each bar and pod location, plan the network drops required for Console Direct and LAN access, and validate how the Euroblock inputs and outputs will integrate with existing presenter microphones, assistive listening equipment, and in-room reinforcement. We can also help align HDX configurations across multiple rooms or sites so every space delivers the same feature set and is managed the same way in Nureva Console.
Common Questions
Does the system hub work on its own?
No. The hub provides processing and connectivity for an HDX system and requires HDX audio bars to function as a room audio solution.
How many HDX components can one hub support?
The hub provides six RJ45 connections for audio bars and microphone pods, which covers the largest published configuration of four bars and two pods.
How does the room computer connect?
Through a USB 2.0 Type-C interface to a room computer or collaboration appliance. A USB Type-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A adapter are included.
Does the deployment require DSP programming?
No. Nureva states that HDX requires no DSP programming. The hub automatically detects component locations and calibrates, including after a room is reconfigured.
Can external presenter microphones be used?
Yes. Four balanced analog inputs on Euroblock connectors support external microphones for Adaptive Voice Amplification, with support for up to four presenter microphones at once.
Does the hub support AES67 AV-over-IP?
Nureva lists AES67 2x2 AV-over-IP on the hub's network ports as coming soon rather than as a currently shipping capability. Confirm status before designing around it.
Is assistive listening built in?
Yes. The hub includes an integrated Auracast transmitter and Bluetooth LE radio, and it also supports traditional hearing loop systems through the analog outputs.
What warranty applies?
Two years limited hardware on the hub and 30 days on accessories and cables, with extended coverage available through Nureva Pro extensions.
