Z3-Q603-RPS Spec Sheet

The Z3 Technology Z3-Q603-RPS is a high-performance H.265/HEVC video encoder board, designed for seamless integration with Sony FCB-ER9500 & FCB-ER8530 4K block cameras. Powered by the Qualcomm QCS603 quad-core processor (1.6GHz + 1.7GHz) with Snapdragon Neural Processing Engine, this compact 50 x 40 x 38 mm module delivers low-latency video encoding up to 4Kp30 in H.265, H.264, and MJPEG formats.

The board supports multiple video inputs, including Micro-HDMI 1.4 (4Kp30), LVDS via KEL connector, and Composite Video, with output over Micro-HDMI 1.4. It enables real-time streaming via RTP, RTSP, MPEG-2 TS over UDP, RTMP, TSRTP, MPTS, and TS file formats.

Key connectivity features include Gigabit Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, WiFi 802.11ac (433 Mbps), Bluetooth 5.0, and ONVIF® Profile S & T compliance. The onboard HTTP-based control interface allows full parameter adjustments, including resolution, bitrate, GOP, and real-time bitrate control.

Power-efficient at 5W typical consumption, the encoder supports multiple power options: USB Type-C, 12V DC, and a 1-cell Li battery with onboard charging. Compact and lightweight (43g, plus 58g with heat sink), it's ideal for UAVs, drones, security, remote monitoring, and video conferencing applications.
