Professional AV-over-IP Encoder for 4K Streaming, Distribution & Control
X2UH-CAST is a high-performance AV-over-IP encoder designed for professional AV distribution. Based on H.265/H.264 compression technology, it enables visually lossless 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) video transmission over a 100M/1G Ethernet network. Supporting three simultaneous streams (4K@60Hz H.264/H.265, 1080P@30Hz H.264, and 720P@50Hz JPEG), it ensures maximum flexibility for streaming, preview, and monitoring applications
With HDMI™ loop-out, analog audio embedding/extracting, and full compatibility with streaming standards like RTSP, RTP, TS, RTMP/RTMPS, this AV Streamer is a versatile solution for broadcasting, control rooms, and AV-over-IP installations. Its Web GUI offers intuitive setup and management, while advanced API controls allow seamless integration with third-party control systems. Compact and 1U/6U V2 rack-compatible, it supports PoE (802.3af), features an OLED display, and includes advanced functions like device discovery, unicast/multicast streaming, EDID configuration, and security with 802.1X protocol.
