MediaPOINTE’s VIDi4 h.264 (AVC, MPEG-4 part 10) encoder blade is used in the VIDi chassis a high density rack mount system for video over IP transport. Plug a video source directly into the blade, plug into the network via the RJ-45 connection, and stream real-time DVD quality video over your LAN or WAN. The VIDi4 system is suitable for all applications requiring cost effective low bit rate video distribution over IP networks.

• Superior Audio/Video Quality. h.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC) hardware compression and MediaPOINTE's optimized transmission technology provides a video image at full frame rates and D1 resolution. The video stream can be viewed by an unlimited number of clients on a LAN or WAN with 25fps PAL or 30fps NTSC assured, provided that bandwidth is available.
• Image resolutions are configurable from D1 (720x480 NTSC, 720x576 PAL) down to 160x120. The video bit rate can be configured from 100 kbps to 4 Mbps. The audio compression is either AAC or MPEG-1 Layer 2 audio encoding at 8 to 384 kbps with up to 48 KHz sample rate.
  
• Video Inputs. The VIDi4 includes one BNC composite input, and one S-Video input for connecting video source equipment.
  
• Audio Inputs. A terminal block connector provides audio inputs for Balanced and Unbalanced connections. This allows for easy onsite connections regardless of the cabling outputs of the audio source. The VIDi4 features user control of audio parameters, including mute, pre-amp and volume.
