DeckLink IP 100G Card with Video Capture & Playback

Multi-Channel IP Video I/O: Simultaneous capture and playback of up to 8 Ultra HD or HD video channels and supports SMPTE 2110 IP systems with full standards compliance for video, audio, and metadata.

Dual 100G Ethernet Ports: Two 100G QSFP ports for redundancy or connection to separate network switches and provides stable, high-bandwidth IP video connectivity for demanding workflows.

Ultra-Low Latency Processing: Supports GPUDirect RDMA for direct data transfers to GPUs, minimizing latency and ideal for real-time GPU-based tasks like AI, VFX, and live broadcast graphics.

High Quality Video Support: Works with 10-bit uncompressed video for the highest fidelity and supports formats like ProRes, DNxHD, and others for flexible post-production use.

Flexible Format Compatibility: Supports SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60 each video channel can be configured independently.

Secure and Isolated Design: Built-in frame buffers act as a video firewall, isolating IP video from general network traffic and protects against rogue software or unauthorized access to the 2110 IP network.

Optimized for Creative Software: Compatible with DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, Media Composer, and more and works seamlessly with tools like Fusion, After Effects, and Photoshop.

Live Streaming Ready: Ideal for building live streaming workstations using OBS, Wirecast, or XSplit and converts 2110 IP video into high-quality live streams.

Developer-Friendly: Includes free SDK for Mac, Windows, and Linux and perfect for custom broadcast, post-production, and automation solutions.

Compact and Powerful: PCIe Gen 4 card with active cooling for use in high-performance workstations and designed for Mac Pro, Windows, and Linux computers.
