The Matrox Monarch EDGE Encoder is capable of meeting the video broadcast demands of complex and multi-faceted live video productions. Compact design and a flexible array of compatibility and control features allow this appliance from Matrox's Monarch EDGE series to be seamlessly integrated into almost any broadcast ecosystem. With support for up to 4K60 video input at latencies as low as 100 ms, this encoder is an excellent solution when reliability and quality are key.
Built for Broadcast Performance
Matrox has designed the Monarch EDGE series with the most complex and data-heavy live event productions in mind. Stable broadcasting in demanding circumstances is made possible by the encoder's 4:2:2 10-bit-capable protocol. Video and audio delay is prevented by latencies as low as 100 ms from glass-to-glass. Up to four HD camera feeds can be simultaneously accepted, and 4K signals can be carried via a single 12G-SDI or quad 3G-SDI connections. Support for 16 channels of embedded audio deliver multi-lingual broadcasts with ease. Multiple bitrates and resolutions can be input simultaneously without interference, which is particularly useful for remote monitoring. The utility of the encoder is bolstered thanks to the flexibility of its streaming protocols, with options for both open and encrypted streaming. For those broadcasts which may be edited for future use, the encoder simultaneously records and broadcasts video inputs without reducing quality on either end.
Comprehensive and Practical Connectivity
The powerful features of the Monarch EDGE Encoder are held in a convenient platform that maximizes connectivity. Bidirectional tally and talkback signals ensure camera operators and video technicians stay on the same page during productions with many moving parts. Localized preview via DisplayPort shows up to four video inputs simultaneously for effective monitoring. These settings and more can be modified by choosing one of Matrox's Monarch EDGE control options. Monarch EDGE Command Hub can be installed on Windows computers or Monarch EDGE Command Center can be accessed directly from any web browser without the need to install any additional software. Quick access to settings is available via the front-facing LCD screen on the durable and compact casing. The encoder is small enough to be installed in one half of a rack unit, allowing one to pair it with a second encoder, Monarch EDGE decoder, or redundant power supply unit for added peace-of-mind during power outages (available separately).
