HDMI + SDI

Two Sources. One Composition.

Select a source or mix HDMI and SDI into one stream. Bring a presentation and camera view into the same production picture.

H.265 / H.264

The Format Your Workflow Needs.

Choose H.265 (HEVC) or H.264 (AVC) encoding. Match the codec, resolution and bitrate to your receiving system and available network bandwidth.

SIMPLE IP WORKFLOW

From Source to Destination.

Bring camera or computer video into C6, encode it once, then deliver it across the network to live platforms, production systems or a decoder. Configure up to eight destinations using the protocols your receivers support.

NDI HX3 certified. NDI HX2/HX3 supports one NDI stream; use the other transports for additional configured destinations.

VERIFIED CONNECTIVITY

Every Essential Connection. Clearly Organized.

Power, network, storage, audio, HDMI and SDI are arranged in one rear panel. The interface image is presented in full so labels and connector order remain readable and undistorted.

WI-FI 6 + GIGABIT PoE

Choose How You Connect.

Wireless flexibility or a wired production setup. Connect C6 to the network that fits your location.

C6 dual antennas and rear LAN PoE connection

WIRELESS NETWORK

Built-in Wi-Fi 6.

Join a wireless network when an Ethernet run is inconvenient. Configure the network connection through the C6 Web UI.

Wireless performance depends on coverage and network conditions.

WIRED NETWORK + POWER

One Cable. Power and Data.

The gigabit Ethernet port supports PoE, carrying network data and power through one cable when connected to a compatible PoE source.

Use a compatible PoE switch or injector. DC 12V power is also supported.

CENTRALIZED MANAGEMENT

One Control Point. Every C6.

Configure one encoder from its browser interface, or bring multiple C6 units into a CNDLive Manager workflow for centralized production control.
