a level of robustness and reliability that cannot be matched by other providers who have to rely on third party products to complete their solution.
AvediaStream TVgateways AvediaStream TVgateways capture live digital TV and radio from any terrestrial, satellite or cable source and stream it directly across an IP network. TVgateways supply multiple channels at any resolution, including 4K, from a single blade, delivering low cost and power consumption per channel.
AvediaStream Encoders Exterity Encoders stream live and prerecorded video and audio over an IP network, creating a single channel from the output of a wide range of sources, including digital cameras, set-top boxes, digital signage systems and personal computers.
The Exterity Encoder range includes SD, HD and 4K Encoders, each with their own audio, video and encoding capabilities and are suitable for a wide range of industry and video solution requirements.
AvediaStream Transcoders Exterity AvediaStream Transcoders are high-performance content transformation tools that enable content to be easily converted into a compatible format for delivery to the user’s preferred viewing device, whether that’s a TV/display screen, computer or mobile device.
For delivery to large numbers of viewers, the transcoder output can be distributed via an origin server or a Content Delivery Network (CDN).
AvediaStream Origin Server Exterity’s innovative AvediaStream o7500 Origin Server increases IP video system flexibility by delivering content direct to any number of devices both in and outside the wired LAN, using streaming protocols suitable for the mobile networks that they are transmitted over. The Origin Server converts content to enable viewing beyond the LAN. This involves transcoding to match the requirements of mobile devices by reducing resolution and bitrate to match the demands of wireless networks, WAN and the internet.
