17884 - Overview

Broadcast Quality Video & Audio Processing
The VITEC 17884 VNP-400 is a Dual standalone H.264 Contribution Encoder that facilitates uni-directional and bi-directional transmission of real-time video and audio signals over IP Networks including the Internet. The system enables multiple user-selectable compression algorithms, depending on Software and License configuration options. The system also enables transmission of DVB/ASI signals over 1/10Gbps IP networks.

Multiple Video/Audio User Interfaces
As an Encoder, the VNP-400 compresses a video source with accompanying audio signals for transmission over IP Networks. The Encoder can accept SD/HD/3G-SDI or HDMI video signals with embedded audio streams, or NTSC / PAL composite video formats with analog audio, as well as AES/EBU digital audio signals. As a Decoder, the VNP400 reconstructs the source encoded video signal with accompanying audio from an IP packet stream.

The recovered video and audio signals are available as SD/HD/3G-SDI or HDMI video signals with up to 8 embedded audio pairs, or as baseband NTSC/PAL composite video signals with baseband audio signals, as well as AES/EBU digital audio signals.

Flexible System Configurations
The VNP-400 can support multiple encoders, multiple decoders, or an encoder / decoder (codec) configuration to enable unidirectional or bidirectional operation. This flexibility enables high channel density in a small "foot-print" (up to 4 HD and 2 SD V/A channels per 1 RU). The VNP-400 is upgradable by software and supports Transcoding and Gateway functionality between SMPTE 2022-6, H.264 (MP, HP, 8/10-bit 420/422P), MPEG-2 (MP, HP, 422P) and JPEG2000 streams
