Product Overview
The Teradek Prism 853 4K 10-bit HEVC/AVC 12G-SDI Encoder Card is a professional IP video encoder card for installation in the Teradek Prism 801 1U or Prism 802 2U rack chassis. Each Prism 853 card accepts 12G-SDI input and encodes 4K 10-bit video in H.265 HEVC or H.264 AVC for IP video streaming and contribution over managed networks or the internet. Multiple cards in a single chassis create a scalable multi-channel IP video encoding system.
Product Description
The Prism 853 encoder card slots into the Prism chassis backplane, receiving power and network connectivity from the chassis. Each card accepts a 12G-SDI input and encodes 4K 10-bit video in H.265 HEVC or H.264 AVC, streaming via SRT, RTMP, and other IP video protocols to compatible decoders, CDN platforms, and broadcast contribution destinations. Multiple Prism 853 cards can be installed in one chassis to build a multi-channel encoding rack suitable for large broadcast facilities or enterprise AV deployments.
Teradek Core integration provides centralized remote monitoring, stream management, and encoder configuration across all installed channels. The Prism 853 pairs with the Prism 873 decoder card for complete IP video contribution infrastructure.
