VITEC MGW Nano Overview

The VITEC MGW Nano is a portable MPEG-4 H.264 encoder and streamer featuring one HD/SD-SDI and one HDMI input, Full HD processing, KLV metadata support, and hardware-based image stabilization. It's fanless and features no moving parts, offering 100% silent operation. Optimized for low-latency distribution of HD and SD video sources, it distributes IP video at broadcast-quality resolutions up to 1080p and at a wide range of bit rates and frame rates. Measuring approximately 5" x 5", it's highly compact and is capable of being deployed on UAVs.

A built-in video matrix and scaler enables frame rates and resolutions of incoming feeds to be scaled and a single video source to be routed to multiple compression cores for simultaneous encoding at up to five different resolutions and frame rates, with optional on-the-fly HD source downscaling to SD. MIL-STD certified, the MGW Nano is optimized for mission-critical ingestion and dissemination of Full Motion Video (FMV) with optional CoT and KLV metadata.
