Overview The CloudPort: 8 Sim H.264/RM encoder bundles up to eight mobile network channels (LTE, HSPA+, HSUPA, HSDPA, and UMTS) of one or multiple operators into a single broadband channel to provide sufficient upload capacity for video and other high volume data. Bandwidth is dependent on the coverage and the availability of multiple mobile networks and network technology (2.5G/3G/ 3.5G/4G) at the location. It also features two bonded Ethernet connections to maximize the upload capacity. This makes a total of 10 connections on a single system. The upload capacity of the system ranges between 500 Kbps and 5 Mbps.

The CloudPort: 8 Sim H.264/RM utilizes its bundling technology along with its internal SSD or USB storage facility to become a high volume data Store & Forward unit. This means that it uses its entire available upload bandwidth to transport any kind of file through its connections to an FTP server. When a fixed delay of 2, 5 or 10 seconds is selected, this will remain the end-to end delay during the complete broadcast. This is what we consider "fixed delay time". IFB or return audio is also available with less than a second of delay.

Use of multiple networks guarantees the highest bandwidth and the best possible network coverage, and offers a redundant solution. The video is encoded with our own H264 codec, which will automatically determine the available bandwidth and continuously transmit on the highest possible bandwidth. This ensures transmission of the best possible video quality with the shortest possible fixed delay time.

The CloudPort: 8 Sim H.264/RM is the ideal back-up solution for SNG trucks, but also enables any video vehicle with a bonded wireless uplink. The system supports both DHCP and fixed IP number configuration and has a separate LCD touch screen for management and configuration. The system can also be managed remotely via the web portal panel and makes it possible to configure maximum bitrate, video resolution and delay.

Solution The solution can be delivered point to point or via a backend server. The backend server is available in two versions. The basic backend server can handle two CloudPort: 8 Sim H.264/RM encoders and two playout systems, and store up to 25 hours of D1 video (depending on the hardware version). The premium server can handle 20 CloudPort: 8 Sim H.264/RM encoders and 20 playout systems, and store up to 100 hours of D1 video (depending on the hardware version).
