TAO 1 mini-NDI is a streaming node that can be used in different ways according to the needs. With a maximum Full HD input resolution, it is able to both stream on 4 platforms simultaneously through its App, once connected to the network, but it is also able to transmit through NDI to a control room that allows reception of this type of signals.
NDI is short for Network Device Interface, a low-latency, broadcast-quality open IP network interface protocol launched by NewTek. This device supports HDMI, UVC and FULL NDI gigabit Ethernet video streaming codecs for encoding and decoding.
TAO 1 mini-NDI can be connected to a camera, or a smartphone, and stream on all the desired platforms because it uses, among others, an RTMP streaming codec. It is therefore ideal as a first streaming encoder, especially if you intend to do it with a single camera, and to give the possibility of transmitting the signal of all cameras with USB and HDMI outputs via NDI.
From an aesthetic point of view, it is characterized by its round display. Once turned on, all controls and monitoring functions will appear around the bezel and its simple and straightforward operation means that all adjustments for brightness, brilliance, input and output settings and network settings are within easy reach.
The back houses input and output ports: HDMI IN/OUT, USB 3.0, USB-C (can also be set as input) to receive the signal from a webcam or PTZ and an RJ45 network port with PoE support. Alternatively, power is supplied via USB-C at 5 VDC.
