...SME-1901 streaming media encoder module at NAB 2013. The SME-1901 is suitable for a wide range of IP-based remote monitoring applications, which includes in-plant CATV replacement to provide IPTV access to multiple sources, whether in-plant or remote, to anyone who typically requires access such as management, engineering or operations. Key features of the encoder include core router and fan-in/fan-out distribution amplification and monitoring. The module also combines high density with high quality, providing H.264 video and high quality AAC audio encoding for up to 20 streams per frame; support for all common streaming protocols; and a six-port 3G/HD/SD distribution amplifier with support for fiber I/O via SFP cartridge.

The encoder supports metadata and audio embedding and an option for a bypass relay is also available, The encoder is designed for ready integration into facility-wide management and monitoring systems via Miranda’s iControl content monitoring and control platform.
