Hardware for 1 to 1,500 streams

Five hardware families and two software platforms built on a single codec core. Choose the form factor that matches the site; every model speaks the same protocols and reports into the same operations plane.

SWIFTBox P Series

Edge-side intelligent compression gateways. Choose by the number of concurrent streams at the site. Selection basis: one 1080P stream equals one compute unit, one 4 MP stream equals two.
