1. Product Introduction

1.1 General Introduction

With video streaming thriving recently, new concepts such as social media and live streaming are gaining popularity among video professionals. The VEGA-2001 is able to leverage the ubiquity of mobile networks and the flexibility of over-the-top delivery without jeopardizing the video quality by providing a professional-grade 4K HEVC engine that can be easily integrated as a portable broadcasting solution. The VEGA-2001 is a great and powerful module to opens new online media opportunities enabling live event streaming even in the most challenging scenarios where a traditional outside broadcasting setup is not a feasible option.

The VEGA-2001 is a small, low power, real-time encoding module based on Ambarella’s video compression technology which supports UHD resolution with HEVC and AVC codecs. It captures 4K video content through the SDI or HDMI inputs then encodes the video content by the Ambarella’s H1 processor. The encoded video content can be streamed to the cloud server with several protocols such as RTSP, RTMP or even HLS. The VEGA-2001 can create multiple output streams from a single video input and encode it individually by using different codecs with different resolutions.

The VEGA-2001 offers a user-friendly HTTP interface and can be remotely controlled by using a web-based Common Gate Interface (CGI). It supports multiple streaming protocols that commonly used by CDNs, which make it easier for users to deliver their video over-the-top.

1.2 Packing List

Before you begin installing your card, please make sure that the following items have been shipped: ⚫ 1 VEGA-2001 ⚫ 1 Power Adapter (VCC12 Load 0.4A) If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact to your distributor or sales representative immediately.
