DeckLink IP cards are the easiest way to capture and play back video directly into 2110 IP based broadcast systems! They have the same DeckLink features so all your existing software will just work! DeckLink IP cards support multiple video channels plus each channel can capture and play back at the same time.
This means you can build racks of servers generating broadcast graphics, virtual sets or GPU based AI image processing, all directly integrated into 2110 IP broadcast infrastructure. You can even use DaVinci Resolve for 2110 IP based broadcast editing workstations! DeckLink IP features a high speed PCIe connection so it works on the latest Mac Pro, Windows and Linux computers.
10G Ethernet forMultiple SMPTE 2110 IP Channels
DeckLink IP cards conform to the SMPTE ST2110 standard for IP video, which specifies the transport, synchronization and description of video, audio and ancillary data over managed IP networks for broadcast. It also keeps video sources in sync using a common PTP clock. DeckLink IP supports SMPTE-2110-20 uncompressed video, SMPTE-2110-21 traffic shaping/timing, SMPTE-2110-30 audio and SMPTE-2110-40 for ancillary data. The big advantage of SMPTE 2110 is all video, audio and ancillary data are transported independently over the network. Plus DeckLink IP supports multicast, which is an extremely efficient way of distributing video, audio and data from a single source to multiple destinations.
Built in Video Firewallfor Total IP Network Security
The problem with computers and 2110 IP video networks is the vulnerability to rogue software or even hackers. That’s because anyone can send data to the computer’s Ethernet connection. However DeckLink IP eliminates this problem because all video is transferred using frame buffers. It’s like a video based firewall! This means the DeckLink IP Ethernet port is isolated from anything other than video and audio. Instead, like all DeckLink cards, the video and audio are transferred to on board DeckLink frame buffers where video playback is managed and then converted to 2110 IP video channels. This means it’s totally impossible for rogue software or hackers to access the 2110 IP network directly!
High Speed PCIe Connection!
DeckLink IP cards feature a fast connection to the host computer that can handle multiple HD and Ultra HD video channels depending on the model, as well as simultaneous capture and playback on each of the channels. PCI Express offers low latency and highly accurate time synchronization to software capturing or playing video. Only DeckLink IP cards offer such exceptional performance while utilizing a simple and low-cost PCIe card-based design. The HD models are so compact and low-cost that they will fit into the new generation of compact computers! Plus DeckLink IP HD and DeckLink IP HD Optical models are low profile, so they can be installed in rack mount servers.
Supports All SD, HD andUltra HD Standards to 2160p60!
DeckLink IP connections are multi-rate, so they support all SD, HD and Ultra HD formats, depending on the model. Plus the DeckLink IP/SDI model includes both 2110 IP and 3G-SDI, so it can connect to SDI equipment, while simultaneously connecting to new IP based infrastructure. In standard definition, DeckLink IP supports both 525i59.94 and 625i50 standards. In HD, all DeckLink IP cards support 720p, 1080i and 1080p standards up to 1080p60. In Ultra HD you get support for all standards up to 2160p60. Video standard can be set independently for each channel and switches instantly when set using the default video standard setting in the Desktop Video Utility or directly via the DeckLink SDK.
