What is the Uniguest ENCOD3R-LK41 / LK42?
The Uniguest ENCOD3R-LK41 / LK42 is a low-latency 4K HEVC encoder for Uniguest Hub AV IPTV systems, available as the single-channel ENCOD3R-LK41 or the dual-channel ENCOD3R-LK42 in a 1U chassis.
How does the Uniguest ENCOD3R-LK41 / LK42 work?
The encoder takes live 4K HDMI or HD-SDI sources at up to 2160p60, compresses them with HEVC/H.265 and streams them as IPTV channels with about 170 ms of latency. HEVC keeps 4K bitrates manageable on the network while preserving detail on large displays and video walls. Choose the LK41 for one source or the LK42 for two. For HD-only feeds, the ENCOD3R-LH2 is the lower-cost option. Creation Networks designs, installs and supports Uniguest IPTV systems nationwide; browse the full Uniguest lineup.
