BE6200/6400 Multi-Channel Mobile Encoder
The Telairity BE6200 and BE6400 are fully programmable broadcast quality multichannel encoders for mobile video and WebTV formats. They use leading-edge Telairity Mobile Clarity (TMC®) compression technology to achieve industry-best H.264/AVC or AVS video quality for target devices. The scalable 2 (BE6200) or 4 (BE6400) channel encoding platforms address the need for high quality low bandwidth mobile formats at a highly affordable per-channel price. Like all Telairity encoders, they can be easily upgraded via software to add new or improved features and enhance performance.
