About: Matrox Monarch Edge 4 SDI inputs 10 Bit Encoder

Matrox Monarch Edge 4 SDI inputs 10 Bit Encoder MDG4/E10/I2 Easily produce multi-angle live events by extending the production studio to any remote location with a network connection. Monarch Edge can encode up to four camera feeds from HD or 3G-SDI sources. Audio and video sync may be hard to maintain, and return channels to the field are often too far behind the live-action, hindering seamless staff interaction. With “glass-to-glass” latencies as low as 100ms between video input at encoder and video output at the decoder, Monarch Edhe achieves some of the lowest latencies on the market while using standard 1 GbE networks.

When an in-studio 4K production requires a remote feed, Monarch Edge can accept either 4K signals over 12G-SDI, or a quad 3G-SDI to deliver a full-4K stream. All of the supported SDI resolutions will be available on the upcoming ST 21101 networked I/O ports using SFP28 connectivity. For events that require more cameras, its compact footprint ensures that two units will fit into a single 1RU space.

Monarch Edge offers the ability to record SDI inputs– at the user’s quality of choice – while simultaneously streaming using the user’s preferred transport protocol. Recordings can be saved to USB 3.0 attached storage or to local networks. Monarch EDGE makes sharing post-event recordings easier than ever with the ability to record to the popular H.264 codec with MOV and MP4 wrapper options. This Monarch EDGE feature allows for ISO recordings of SDI inputs, which can be used for post-event editing or serve as backup recordings.
