VITEC’s new MGW Vision is a 4K/Ultra HD (UHD) HEVC realtime hardware-based encoder for IPTV, broadcast, and point-to-point distribution. MGW Vision’s advanced HEVC compression enables users to stream UHD/HD video with up to 50 percent bandwidth savings compared to the H.264 standard. It fits a compact 1RU form factor and features H.265 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 hardware compression chips for streaming broadcast-quality video. The encoder has a processing power of up to one UHD or four HD HEVC channels from four 3G-SDI inputs, answering market requirements for format flexibility. The solution is ideal for live event streaming, IPTV distribution, and mission-critical military video transmissions. Using the encoder to deliver bandwidth-efficient HEVC/H.265 streams, broadcasters, corporate IT, military forces, and government agencies can reduce operating expenses while managing increasing demand for high-quality video services across LANs and WANs.
