It puts a camera, laptop or other 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI source onto an NDI network, or takes an NDI stream back out to a 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI display or device. It is a compact, PoE-powered way to bring 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI equipment into TriCaster and NDI production workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Vizrt VCS3G Viz Connect Solo 3G work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Viz Connect Solo 3G works in either direction. In encode mode it converts the 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI input to NDI so the source appears on the network for a TriCaster, Viz Connect system or NDI software; in decode mode it receives an NDI stream and outputs 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfiguration and monitoring happen through a web-based interface, and tally is passed via NDI so presenters and camera operators see on-air status. Audio can be embedded in the 3G\/HD\/SD-SDI signal or connected through the 3.5mm port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA single Gigabit Ethernet cable can carry video and power using PoE, or an external DC 5V-18V adapter can be used. The portable enclosure includes a threaded camera mount, so it can sit on a camera, behind a display or on a lectern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVizrt positions Solo units for corporate meetings, training and conferences as well as live production.
