How does EtherCast work?
EtherCast gateways take SD-SDI and/or DVB-ASI (MPEG2-TS) data, efficiently convert it to IP packets, and pump it continuously onto a GigE or Fast Ethernet link or LAN. At the other end of the connection, the engines perform the reverse, converting the data back to the required SD-SDI or DVB-ASI format. Advanced, purpose-built hardware delivers the jitter control and low, predictable latency required for real-time, superior-performance video transport.
