The Magewell 64170 Pro Convert H.264 or H.265 to SDI multi-protocol streaming media decoder transforms an H.264 (AVC) or H.265 (HEVC) compressed video stream into a high-quality SDI output for connection to baseband monitors, projectors and switchers. Seamlessly bringing together the worlds of IP-based streaming and baseband display equipment,
Supporting a wide range of streaming protocols - including SRT (Secure Reliable Transport), RTSP, RTMP, UDP, RTP and HTTP streaming - for maximum source compatibility, the low-latency decoder is ideal for applications including multi-site video distribution between corporate, educational and church campuses; image magnification (IMAG), remote production; surveillance monitoring; digital signage and more.
The Pro Convert H.26x to SDI decodes streams up to 2048x1080 at 60fps for output over its 3Gbps SDI interface. The plug-and-play decoder features DHCP-based network configuration, and users can specify source streams and control the decoders' advanced settings through a browser-based interface; wired or wireless keyboard or mouse; or using on-device controls that overlay an intuitive menu on the SDI output. Offering the high reliability, assured performance and compact size of dedicated hardware compared to software-based stream playout, the decoder can be powered via an external adapter or Power over Ethernet (PoE).
