FSDI-15A Spec Sheet
The Z3 Technology FSDI-15A is a highly versatile and lightweight dual-camera encoder optimized for integration with both visible and thermal infrared cameras. Designed for applications in surveillance, unmanned systems, military, and inspection, this encoder supports the Sony FCB-EV9520L, FCB-EV9500L, Tamron MP3010M-EV, and Boson IR cameras, delivering exceptional performance in demanding environments.
The FSDI-15A offers dual outputs, simultaneously streaming and recording 3G-SDI or HD-SDI video in H.264 and H.265 formats. With the ability to encode video at resolutions up to 1080p (60fps), it ensures low-latency, high-quality video delivery. The encoder supports a range of video formats including RTP, RTSP, MPEG-2 TS, and RTMP for flexible streaming options.
Designed with military, industrial, and UAV use cases in mind, the FSDI-15A interfaces with SDI, LVDS, and composite cameras, and features multiple outputs including HDMI, SDI Loop Out, and Ethernet. It supports camera control via IP and passes KLV metadata, ensuring seamless integration in real-time video systems.
Key features include easy-to-use HTTP-based control, ONVIF® compliance, and the ability to overlay text, logos, or images on live video. The encoder can also be configured to record video to micro SD or NFS, ensuring that high-quality footage is captured and stored for later analysis.
Whether for long-range thermal imaging or visible camera applications, the FSDI-15A is an ideal solution for flexible and robust video streaming and recording.
