softGear ? Streaming Gateway
and empower next-generation production workflows. It seamlessly connects on-premises and
cloud-based environments, providing a flexible and scalable platform for efficient video transport
and processing. It efficiently receives and decodes SRT streams from the ground, forwarding them
onwards for further processing using NDI-based cloud services.
Conversely, it can retrieve content from other cloud instances via NDI and send it back to the ground over SRT. To complete the link to on-premises facilities, the OSG-8971 openGear SRT encoder/decoder excels as your on-premises hardware solution.
Streamlined Workflows
As a perfect complement to 91桃色’s cloud-based ecosystem, the SSG facilitates smooth connectivity for XPression and Graphite CPC instances as well as other services running in the cloud. This streamlines yourworkflow, enhances efficiency, and empowers you to unlock the full potential of cloud-based production solutions.
Scalability & Flexibility
The SSG is built for flexibility and scalability. A single cloud instance can operate bi-directionally, handling up to 8 SRT streams to/from the ground and 8 NDI streams within the cloud. This versatility allows you to adapt to varying production needs without directionality constraints.
Cost-Effective Bandwidth Management
With the SSG, you gain control over your bandwidth usage. The gateway offers the ability to create IP proxy versions of your content by adjusting frame rate and resolution. This allows you to pay only for the egress bandwidth you actually need, reducing costs in situations where full resolution is not essential.
More than just Transport
The SSG goes beyond simply transporting video streams. It offers advanced capabilities like audio channel remapping and sample rate conversion, providing additional control and flexibility for your production needs.
Unified Experience
The softGear Streaming Gateway leverages DashBoard for unified and streamlined control. This familiar interface minimizes the learning curve for users, allowing them to seamlessly manage both ground-based and cloud-based elements within a single, cohesive workflow.
Your onramp to the Cloud
To complete the ground-cloud link, the OSG-8971 openGear SRT gateway seamlessly connects to the SSG and excels as your on-premises hardware solution for SRT transport.
