HaiVision Network Video announced the availability of its new MAKITO with DVI input. Delivering low-latency, full-frame-rate H.264 encoding of HD video (up to 1080p60) or computer graphics resolutions (SXGA up to 1280x1024 60Hz), the new MAKITO supports component analog, DVI, and XGA (RGBHV) inputs. It is ideal for delivering high-resolution real-time signage over IP video systems.
The new MAKITO model is an enhancement over the previous MAKITO-SDI that was released in 2009 supporting high-definition 3G-SDI and HD-SDI as well as standard-definition SDI, composite, and s-video.
"The MAKITO is a hugely successful encoder, largely because of its remarkable performance and its flexibility in meeting the demands of the latest HD performance streaming applications," said Peter Maag, senior vice president at HaiVision Network Video. "Its small size, broad I/O support, and ability to operate as a stand-alone appliance or part of a high-density encoding system make the MAKITO a powerful solution for a wide range of markets and users."
Adding this new MAKITO codec device, the product family of HaiVision now supports all common input types and resolutions. HaiVision's MAKITO, MAKITO-SDI, and SD-only BARRACUDA are available as compact single-encoder appliances or as mini blades that can be used within a 21-slot chassis that occupies just 4 RU.
To address the need for different streaming resolutions and bandwidth requirements, the MAKITO incorporates HiLo Streaming, the ability to emit both high- and low-bandwidth streams simultaneously, and Multi-Streaming, the ability to send streams with different IP encapsulation to different destinations. When integrated into the Video Furnace IP video system, the MAKITO also distributes 100-percent-secure video using AES 128-bit encryption and robust video using forward error correction technology.
Based in Montreal and Chicago, HaiVision Network Video is a private company and a world leader in delivering the most advanced video networking technology and IPTV solutions. |
