VIEWCAST NIAGARA 'GOSTREAM PLUS'

Technical Specification

The new standard in Portable, Streaming Media Encoders

Summary

This second generation Niagara 'GoStream PLUS' is a portable, one-button streaming encoding appliance designed to make capturing and streaming video a simple, easy to use process. This single channel encoder is designed to be used by the most novice of users and features 3 EZStream^TM buttons that allow users to select from pre-defined encoding profiles. Its vastly improved encoding performance is due to the upgrade to a powerful P4 processing platform.

This single channel device is highly portable and can quickly go from its DualDock rack shelf in an indoor environment to outdoor, on-location events for live webcasting.

The GoStream's appliance-like design and set-up streaming can be achieved through the front panel and the EASE control menus. Additionally, with pre-defined encoding profiles the EASE control menu provides an intuitive, easy-to-use control menu system that allows users to access system status, setup IP network connections and even export video content to video storage devices and CDN's.

The GoStream is targeted at organisations looking for a low-cost, high quality rugged solution to meet their portable, streaming needs.
