4K(UHD) HEVC /AVC / MP2
Encode & Decode Carriers
Adtec Digital is a leading manufacturer of broadcast video products. Featuring multi-channel, 4K(UHD)/HD/SD encode or decode, dense audio, VANC processing, and low latency, these all-in-one carriers are ideal for demanding broadcast video applications. Each encoder carrier supports up to four (4) channels of HD/SD encoding or a single 4K(UHD) channel . Each decoder carriers supports up to two (2) channels of HD/SD decoding. These carriers can be combined in one frame along with any transport carriers you require.
Key Features:
-
4K (UHD) Support
-
Multi-Codec Capable
( HEVC / AVC / MPEG2 )
-
Support for 10-bit & 4:2:2
-
Up to Eight Pairs of Audio per Video (codec dependent)

AdTec Notes:
Rackmount Multi-Channel Encoder/Decoder Configurations​:
Built with multi-channel applications in mind, these encoder/decoder configurations provide maximum flexibility and enable expansion and growth. Each frame can support up to 16 HD/SD encoders or 8 HD/SD decoders, includes an on-board IP multiplexer and leaves room for additional multiplexing carriers.
