*With different modules installed it can deliver expanded functionality over time.
Built-in High Bandwidth Switch - Save Big & Cut the Cost of a Switch!
High-Speed Connectivity: The RF02 provides three 10Gbps SFP+ fiber Ethernet interfaces and one 10Gbps RJ45 Ethernet interface, ensuring effortless handling of high-bandwidth NDI streams.
Integrated Network Switch: Equipped with a built-in 1G/2.5G network switch module that interconnects all module cards, RF02 supports a full range of capabilities including encoding, decoding, NDI conversion, media gateway, bonding, etc.
Efficient Data Flow: RF02 streamlines the data flow within the platform, eliminating the need for external network switches. This setup not only reduces setup complexity and costs but also enhances the reliability of data transfer.
Centralized Management with KiloLink Server Pro
Unified Control: RF02 is powered by an ARM64 main controller running a customized version of Kiloview's KiloLink Server Pro, purpose-built for this platform. It enables automatic discovery, monitoring, and configuration of all module cards through a unified interface.
*Planned updates will enable unified management of external devices and interconnectivity across the Kiloview ecosystem.
On-Premise Bonding Service: With media gateway card FMG-400, RF02 can serve as an on-premise server for Kiloview's P Series 4G/5G wireless bonding encoders, providing secure and reliable remote device and bonding management. Paired with a decoding card, it can seamlessly output remote video streams to SDI or HDMI at various resolutions.
Streamlined Operations: The platform automatically identifies and manages all workflow streams, allowing users to monitor status, assign sources, and configure settings with ease - greatly reducing manual effort while ensuring stable, low-latency transmission.
Modular Design for Flexibility:
Supports Up to 18 Service Cards: RF02 features a 2RU modular design supporting up to 18 cards - including encoding, decoding, media gateway, and bonding. Each module operates independently, ensuring system stability and greatly enhancing reliability.
Customizable Configurations: RF02 offers customizable configurations with mixed card support, allowing seamless integration into diverse media workflows and rapid deployment of tailored processing systems.
Modular Control & Switching Design: RF02 features a replaceable main controller and network switch module, enabling independent upgrades of core components without replacing the entire unit - significantly reducing maintenance costs and extending system lifespan.
High Density with Space-Saving Design
With a 2RU compact design supporting up to 18 modules, RF02 integrates encoding, decoding, media gateway, and bonding services in one unit-saving rack space and simplifying workflows, making it an essential in modern AV infrastructures.
