Xtreme-ActiveSQX

About this product

Professional AV solutions require video to be received from a great many different sources and locations — the ability to receive and display video directly from online resources such as CCTV networks and remote desktop applications, combined with local inputs, has become an everyday part of fully functional video wall display. The Xtreme-ActiveSQX PCIe plug-in card is a powerful addition to systems that require a scalable, hardware-based decoding solution.

The Xtreme-ActiveSQX is a half-length PCI Express plug-in card with two Gigabit Ethernet input nodes supporting real-time decode of multiple IP streams, providing seamless integration of IP video into an EMS wall controller. Each card can capture a bandwidth equivalent to twelve 1920×1080 @30Hz streams onto any wall controller using EMS graphics cards. It uses a single PCIe slot, is passively cooled, and can easily be added to a system already running EMS technology without changing the existing configuration.

Xtreme-ActiveSQX automatically balances the total decoding workload across all ActiveSQX cards in a system, distributing thermal power consumption more efficiently, and is designed to work alongside the EMS Xtreme range of capture cards, supporting a mixture of local and remote capture feeds on the same display.
