Description
Encode an HDMI or SDI stream to H.264 in real-time for transmission with the Teradek Cube 655. The Cube 655 can encode Full HD video streams using high-quality H.264 compression at up to 15 Mbps. The reduced bandwidth requirement of H.264 video over uncompressed video enables it to be streamed long distances over the web. The Cube 655 can connect to your network via a variety of interfaces. It features dual-band antennas for Wi-Fi connectivity, an Ethernet port for a wired connection, and a USB port for using a cellular modem.
The Cube 655 is a great tool for on set monitoring as well. Up to six iPads with the TeraView app can view the video feed simultaneously, preventing you from running out of on-set monitoring options for the director or clients.

Features
• Cube is manufactured in the USA and features 3G-SDI and HDMI inputs along with a new, high-powered 802.11AC WiFi adapter. Cube’s rugged aluminum chassis and professional locking 2-Pin Connector connector ensure it’s ready for constant use in any environment.
• The Cube 600 series encodes video at bitrates up to 15 Mbps for pristine quality in any application. When bandwidth is limited, adaptive bitrate allows Cube to automatically adjust and stream at the highest quality achievable.
• Built-in 802.11ac dual band (2.4/5GHz) WiFi offers higher data throughput and stronger wireless connectivity at longer distances.
• Cube 600 supports monitoring on up to 6 devices iOS devices simultaneously so clients, crew, and director can all see the action.
• Support for 33 point 3D LUTs and Pomfort LiveGrade integration allows your creative team to monitor graded footage on set or off. Looks can be applied to the stream itself or controlled independently within the TeraView app.
• Cube’s intuitive new user interface makes it easier than ever to configure your device. Pages load more quickly, configuration changes apply instantly, and all encoder statuses are updated dynamically.
• Cube’s built-in SD card slot gives you the option to save high quality backup recordings for post-event editing.*
*Recorded video file bitrate and resolution match encoded stream quality.
• A configurable test pattern generator allows you to test your stream without connecting a video source and prevents interruptions if video sync is lost.
• Bi-directional IFB allows camera operators and crew to communicate in real-time, even if they’re half a world away.
