The QV1394-WIFI from QVidium distinguishes itself as being one of the first video IP encoders on the market available with a FireWire (IEEE-1394) connection. Broadcast video facilities can now convert high quality video outputted from DV cameras and recorders for transmission over the Internet. By using this encoder at the source end and a QVidium decoder at the receiving end, video and audio can be sent over very long distances while maintaining the original pristine digital A/V quality. Powerful protocols and encryption tools are in place to ensure secure and reliable data delivery through the entire transmission process.
