Model 2464

HD IP video server, SDI or DVI compatible | Model 2464

• Two independent output streams from one video input
• H.264 HP@L3, MJPEG video compression
• Supports MPEG-TS, H.264 VES, MJPEG over HTTP
• Streams via HTTP, RTP, RTSP, UDP
• AAC-LC audio (with optional 3364TA board)
• General-purpose RS-232 port

Model 2464 is a compact IP video server that captures, compresses and streams HD video and audio over Ethernet. It can simultaneously produce two output streams (one HD and one SD) with independent resolutions, frame rates, and bit rates, allowing it to be easily tailored to match network capabilities. Real-time text overlay is supported along with popular video processing functions such as interpolation for motion artifact removal, image mirroring and rotation (180°), and frame decimation. Either output stream can be overlaid with additional text/graphics and output as video.

Two versions are available: SDI and DVI. The DVI version also captures VGA, component and composite sources (with appropriate adapters). Both versions include an RS-232 port that can be used for camera control or any other purpose.

Audio can be captured from a microphone or line source using a 3364TA accessory board (not included). Audio may be sent uncompressed, or compressed and multiplexed with compressed video into a transport stream, or both simultaneously

Stream formats

The video processor performs efficient H.264 video compression, producing output data formatted as either transport stream, elementary stream, or RTSP. Alternatively, MJPEG compression can be performed, which is especially useful for capturing high definition snapshots. Audio compression is performed using AAC-LC. The stream multiplexer employs high precision hardware timestamps to ensure perfect A/V sync on players.

Real-time text overlay

The text overlay generators can position up to 160 characters of monochrome text anywhere in the video frame. A unique text string, consisting of mixed constant and variable text, may be defined for each overlay generator. Text variables such as time, date, and frame count are automatically updated every video frame.

User interface

The built-in web server allows device configuration and control, user management, and live stream previewing on any web browser. In automated applications, these functions can be accessed from a remote client through custom software (e.g., Curl, Python, Selenium) or multimedia frameworks such as GStreamer.

Ordering information

Model 2464 is available as a bare board (2464-SDI and 2464-DVI) or as an enclosed unit (2464-SDIS and 2464-DVIS). Enclosed units combine a 2464 bare board and a 3364TA audio accessory board in a robust metal enclosure, thus providing built-in analog audio interfaces. Bare board versions do not include a 3364TA audio accessory board, so a 3364TA must be purchased separately if you require analog audio interfaces.
