Maevex 6150 Quad 4K Encoder Appliance

Maevex 6150 Quad 4K Encoder Appliance

Experience Flexible 4K Streaming & Recording

The Matrox Maevex 6150 quad 4K encoder appliance is the first in the world to deliver quad 4K input capture and encode, supporting at least four concurrent 4K streams and recordings—simultaneously. Six different streaming protocols, multiple chroma sub-sampling, adjustable encoding parameters, zero-latency pass-through, compositing, and so much more in a convenient, quiet, low power, rack-ready appliance form factor gives Maevex 6150 the flexibility to fit almost any encoding application.

Coupled with Maevex PowerStream Plus Software, the Maevex 6150 quad 4K encoder delivers reliable industry-leading technology and flexible management of all Maevex devices and features, ensuring complete reach and control over the entire network.

    Overview

    Built on H.264, this plug-and-play solution fits seamlessly into existing infrastructures and interoperates with virtually any network device, ensuring high-density content distribution and system scalability. Flexible setup and management of all devices and features from one easy-to-use interface comes via complimentary Maevex PowerStream Plus software.

    Industry-Leading Technology

    Industry Leading Technology
    The Maevex 6150 quad 4K encoder is the first in the world to drive simultaneous quad 4K/UHD and Full HD capture, encode, stream, and record from a single standalone appliance. Integrating seamlessly with standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet networks, Maevex 6150 includes zero-latency pass-through for real-time output of audio/video content on up to four 4K displays.
    LED Screen and Buttons of Matrox Maevex 6150 Quad 4K Enterprise Encoder Appliance
    An on-device LCD display shows device IP and stream addresses, system information, and other urgent content, allowing for easy installation and troubleshooting issues directly on the device. Adding a separate monitor allows for previewing media and ensuring content appears exactly as intended before transmission. Six on-appliance buttons—to read and/or control the LCD display and start/stop streaming and recording functions—permit direct command execution in instances where software access is limited. Additional I/O for audio and USB connections ensures the functionality necessary for any installation. 
    Maevex 6150 Quad 4K Enterprise Encoder Appliance
    Benefit from up to 4K/UHD 4:4:4 sub-sampling support plus H.264 capability for best-in-breed encoding. Maevex’s versatile PowerStream Plus software supports multi-protocol and multi-bitrate streaming, chroma sub-sampling management, multiple Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and quadrant composite options, and more. The multi-chroma sub-sampling feature delivers 4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0, and 4:0:0 options, to best balance bitrate and compression demands of different encoding environments and markets.
     
    Our technology promises unprecedented quality, without necessarily needing a dedicated distribution network; we use existing 1 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure and expand its capabilities to allow for many streams of any quality to be transmitted on a single cable.

    Flexible communication

    Flexible Communication
    The Maevex 6150 quad 4K appliance allows for simultaneous streaming, processing, and recording on all channels in multiple settings—all without sacrificing quality. This powerful appliance delivers content to on-premises end points, to the cloud and internet series, and also records to local or network storage for later editing and viewing, concurrently. Maevex 6150 can also transmit live and/or recorded content for multiple video-on-demand platforms— such as Facebook Live, YouTube, Twitch, Wowza®, Ustream™, LiveScale, and Restream to name a few.
     

    H.264 technology meets almost every need and requirement for streaming and recording at excellent quality with minimal network bandwidth consumption—including at 4K. It also allows for delivery of multiple streams of almost every type of content over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet networks; network streams or recordings can then be decoded using virtually any device. Customizable settings on each independent channel provide powerful scaling and deinterlacing to ensure only pristine graphics and video are encoded.
