Advantech VEGA-3301E 4K Broadcast Video Encoder Card, Channels 4

VEGA-3301 enables real-time 4K UltraHD (2160p60) HEVC encoding at up to 20x less power consumption than a software-only solution. The HEVC/H.265 codec is gaining momentum because it reduces bit rates by approximately 50% when compared to an equivalent quality video stream encoded using H.264, enabling more channels or higher resolution video delivery over the same infrastructure. It is particularly relevant for 4K UltraHD transmission which requires a much higher stream capacity.

Features:

• 1-ch 4K (2160p) or 4-ch FHD (1080p) at 60 fps real-time encoding in Main 8, Main 10 or Main 10 4:2:2 modes
• Less than 35W power consumption
• 4K video capture over built-in HDMI 2.0, Display Port 1.2 or 4-ch SDI-3G video inputs
• Simple-to-use API and example code for FFmpeg and GStreamer multimedia frameworks
