BE8110-T Single-Channel HD ENG Encoder
The Telairity BE8110-T is a version of Telairity's BE8110 broadcast quality advanced compression HD encoder that has been specially modified for use in the harsh vehicle environments typical of Electronic/Satellite News Gathering (ENG/SNG) vans and trucks. It is tested for very wide temperature tolerance, with reliable operation from below freezing to desert temperatures. Special vibration-resistant construction helps it survive the jolts and jars of field use, while an ultra-low encode latency of 150ms eliminates any lag in communication between distant locations, enabling natural interactions between field and studio personnel. "Instant on" for immediate availability, simple "two button" front panel control for quick and easy field operation, and dual- redundant power supplies for added reliability complete the BE8110-T package.
