Description

The video Encoder for any Mission-critical Workflow – Makito X4 Video Encoder
Makito X4 SDI Encoder Appliance – H.264/AVC & H.265/HEVC IP Video Encoder – Quad channel 3G/HD/SD-SDI
The ultra-low latency Makito X4 video encoder provides the quality, flexibility, and reliability needed for the most demanding live video transport applications leveraging SDI or SMPTE ST 2110.

Highly portable, extremely secure, and field-proven by thousands of users worldwide, Makito video encoders are available in a wide variety of configuration options making them suitable for use anywhere latency matters – in broadcast, enterprise, government, and defense.


Optimised for any Network
Complete control of video encoding settings enables you to optimize picture quality based on your network performance and deployment needs – making the Makito X4 perfectly suited for any situation – from high bitrate broadcast workflows to bandwidth constrained ISR applications.
– Up to 2160p60 for 4K/UHD workflows
– Single- or Quad-channel HD up to 1080p60 for high-density workflows and synchronized multicamera productions
– Up to 4:2:2 chroma subsampling for pristine color
– Up to 10-bit pixel depths for wide color gamut (WCG) and high-dynamic range (HDR)

When Every Millisecond Counts
Deliver your workflows with ultra low latency video streaming, even over unpredictable networks like the public internet. Ideal for mission-critical, contribution, interactive, and collaborative decentralized workflows.
– Low latency video encoding measured in milliseconds
– Support for low latency streaming protocols including SRT, RTP and UDP unicast & multicast mode
– Slice-based encoding for extremely low latency
– Configure GOP size and framing for further latency savings

Versatile and Adaptable to any Destination – 4 inputs / 8 cores
Simultaneously stream content to different downstream receivers with varying bitrates, codecs, and resolutions – a single video source can be encoded with more than one bitrate.
– Up to 8 encoding cores for multi-bitrate streaming
– One to four 1080p60 HD inputs or one 4K UHD 2160p60 input
– Encode in H.264 and HEVC
– Up to 16 audio encoding cores for up to 32 audio channels
– Bitrates up to 120 Mbps and as low as 32 Kbps

Secure & Reliable Live Video Transport
Achieve peace of mind with the proven reliability of the Makito X4 video encoder and the assurance that your content will be delivered only to intended audiences, no matter what type of network you use.
– Set and forget reliability, ideal for all mission-critical use cases
– Packet loss recovery with native support of the SRT protocol
– Path redundancy and hitless failover for uninterrupted streaming in the event of network link failures
– Network adaptive encoding to maintain streaming even if IP network performance degrades
– AES 128/256 content encryption
