The NSQ is a 4 to16 channel encoder/decoder designed to livestream HD video, audio, and data on a secure network.
Ultra-low bandwidth, low latency, providing high quality, flexibility, and industrial reliability for the most constrained networks in the remotest locations. Extremely secure, and field-proven, the NSQ series is powered by Nodestream™ proprietary technology and can be combined into a complete optimised solution for encoding, streaming, and decoding with centralised management and remote control.
16 Video Channels
When used with Nodestream Live the NSQ supports streaming up to 16 channels of video per encoding device from as low as 500kbps, ensuring unparalleled situational awareness even where network availability is limited.
11 Data Channels
Used with Nodestream™ X the NSQ supports up to 10 independent data channels plus 1 synchronised data/video channel per module, making it ideal for complex, real-time operations requiring secure, efficient, and synchronised data handling.
Integrated 2-Way IP audio
The NSQ is ideal for maintaining cohesive communication between remote work groups or stakeholders. It is purpose designed to operate and deliver quality audio over the poorest networks with incredible efficiency.
Supports IP, HDMI, HD-SDI & Composite video formats
Connect any stream source such as IP, analog cameras to the Nodestream platform.
Adaptable input configurations for video, audio, data and network
The NSQ is compatible with a wide range of industry-standard video formats, ensuring seamless integration with your existing infrastructure and devices. This compatibility guarantees flexibility and convenience.
Typical NSQ multi-cast configuration using NodeStream™Live
When the NSQ is utilised with Nodestream™Live, it enables uses to aggregate video feeds from various sites and devices into a single, easy-to-manage system. It supports streaming up to 16 channels of video per encoding device from as low as 500kbps, ensuring unparalleled situational awareness even where network availability is limited.
Typical NSQ configuration in P2P or M2M mode using NodeStream™X
When the NSQ operates in P2P or M2M mode with NodeStream™X, it transforms into a sophisticated point-to-point communication platform, engineered to provide exceptional security and operational efficiency, even in bandwidth-limited environments. The system features robust 384-bit encryption, guaranteeing the highest level of security for all communications and data transmissions.
