What is HEVC?

HEVC, also known as H.265, is a next-generation compression standard that offers a number of enhancements over H.264. Compared to AVC (H.264) compression, HEVC is 50% more efficient, which translates into maintaining the same video quality at half the bitrate or double the video quality at the same bitrate.

The new Cube 700 and Slice 756 series

The new Cube 700 and Slice 756 series bring the latest in compression technology at a size and price point never before seen.

What makes HEVC Cube and Slice unique

  • Can use both HEVC (H.265) and AVC (H.264) High Profile compression
  • Compatible with Core transcoding engine. This allows you to take advantage of HEVC encoding when streaming to Core, while delivering your content in AVC to your destination.
  • Dual input (HDMI + 3G-SDI)
  • Compatible with the new Bond expansion module, allowing you to turn your Cube 700 series into a professional bonding solution
  • GigE and 2.4 / 5.8Ghz 802.11ac WiFi built-in
  • Bitrate support up to 30Mbps
  • Streaming resolution support up to 1080p60
  • Compatible with T-21, Sencore, and Vitec HEVC decoders
  • Uses just 6W of power

What can Cube and Slice codecs do?

  • Stream to any online video platform, such as Facebook, Youtube, Twitch, Periscope, and more.
  • Stream point-to-point to decoders over the internet or on local networks with latency as low as 80ms
  • Comprehensive protocol support: MPEG-TS, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, TDS
  • Monitor your live video feed on an iOS device for confidence or local configuration
  • Turn your camera into a wireless video feed for Teradek’s Live:Air iOS switcher application

Virtually on-set – managing productions when your crew can’t travel

The way we make movies most certainly must change. In the best of circumstances, we are a crew of 75 people jammed into a room with very little ventilation, holding our breath until we hear “CUT”. We are in close contact with one another all day long. We never really thought about it before. All of that is about to change.Kristin M Burke, The Guardian

Streaming Everywhere – at once

Live streaming is now the number one priority. News and even government agencies, houses of worship and health agencies, training and education institutes are all re-doubling their efforts to communicate live with private and public audiences.

Live production from multiple locations, on a budget

Live from Sussex and Stockport (via. London) Live Production has always had its own set of challenges, including managing a network of cameras and equipment for a show where there’s no option of a second take. Keeping up with the technology is hard enough, but what if all of this has to be done with presenters that are geographically separated, with an MCR operator that can’t get to the control room. Comprehensive hardware options have existed for years. Portable production units (PPU) combine decoders, switchers, and encoders from manufacturers such as Blackmagic Design, Datavideo, Teradek, and many more into a transport ready solution.  Software production is a real solution. It’s designed to give you most of the capabilities of a broadcast unit, in a package that’s installable on a laptop, or as a compact turnkey solution.
