Contemporary Research QIP-SDI-2 Dual SDI Inputs IPTV 1080P Encoder

The QIP-SDI-2 Dual SDI Inputs IPTV 1080P Encoder from Contemporary Research features two SDI inputs with dual encoders that process two MPEG2 or H.264 video streams, each supported by a hardware scaler that can accept and format virtually all video signals between 1080p and 480i in NTSC, VGA, and PAL standards. Audio can be embedded, or fed separately to digital SPDIF or analog stereo inputs.

Two NTSC inputs support composite video or video with closed captioning data. The converter is fully convergent and able to output two independent single-program IPTV streams through the gigabit Ethernet port. The converter is easy to set up and monitor via the web or front panel buttons, as well as updating the firmware. Up to two units can be installed in one rack space and mixing other QIP encoders gives you the ability to handle 4 programs per rack space.

The encoder creates up to two high-definition SPST Unicast or IPTV streams, encoded as H.264 or MPEG2. It can convert stereo and PCM to stereo AAC or MP12 and pass-through or AC-3, and AAC. The dual hardware scalers accept up to 1080p 3G videos, including 60/30 Hz, and PAL formats, and can deliver programs at a set resolution.
