Overview

Product description

The BLANKOM HDD-276 receives H.265/H.264 IP video and decodes it to HDMI up to 4K60 and to PAL/NTSC CVBS. It simultaneously transcodes the received programme to an H.265 or H.264 IP stream up to 1080p60. SRT, RTSP, RTMP/RTMPS, HTTP, HLS, FLV and UDP/RTP support, stereo audio output and browser-based management provide flexible integration into IPTV, monitoring and digital signage systems.

4K60 IP Decoder with HDMI and CVBS Outputs & HD IP Transcoding

The BLANKOM HDD-276 receives an H.265/HEVC or H.264/AVC IP programme and decodes it for local display through HDMI and analog CVBS. HDMI supports UHD video up to 3840 × 2160 at 60 fps, while CVBS provides PAL or NTSC standard-definition video.

The unit can simultaneously transcode and re-stream the received programme at up to 1920 × 1080 at 60 fps. Output codec, resolution and frame rate can be adapted to the receiving system. This combines local monitoring and onward IP distribution in one compact device.

Streaming and web management share one Gigabit Ethernet port. HDMI carries embedded stereo audio; a separate analog stereo output is also available.

BLANKOM HDD-276 application diagram for IP reception, local video display and onward IP transcoding

Typical signal path: compatible IP encoder, IP camera or streaming server → Gigabit Ethernet → HDD-276 → HDMI display and/or CVBS receiver, with simultaneous HD IP transcoding to a downstream network.

One programme is processed. HDMI output supports UHD up to 4K60; transcoded IP output supports up to 1080p60. The BNC connector is an analog composite-video output.

Application examples

Application Examples

Application Examples

  • IPTV codec adaptation: receive a compatible HEVC programme and transcode it to an AVC stream for downstream receivers that require H.264.
  • Remote video with local monitoring: receive an SRT or other supported IP feed, display it via HDMI and simultaneously distribute an HD transcoded stream.
  • IP camera integration: receive a compatible camera stream through RTSP and adapt its codec, resolution or delivery protocol for a downstream IPTV installation.
  • Digital signage: display an incoming IP programme on an HDMI screen, with remote configuration through the web interface.
  • Hospitality and campus television: adapt a selected incoming programme for local distribution and provide local HDMI or PAL/NTSC monitoring.
  • Headend programme insertion: supply a transcoded IP programme to a compatible IP-input modulator or downstream multiplexer. Confirm transport-stream and audio compatibility during commissioning.
  • Live-event distribution: monitor the received programme locally while delivering an HD stream to a compatible streaming server or network receiver.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the HDD-276 do?

It receives one IP programme, decodes it to HDMI and CVBS, and can simultaneously transcode it into an H.265 or H.264 IP stream for onward distribution.

Does 4K60 also apply to the transcoded IP output?

No. UHD decoding and HDMI display support up to 3840 × 2160 at 60 fps. The transcoded IP output is limited to 1920 × 1080 at 60 fps.

Does it have SDI or VGA outputs?

No. Its physical video outputs are HDMI and CVBS. The BNC connector carries analog composite video, not SDI. Select another decoder model if SDI or VGA is required.

Can HDMI and CVBS be used together?

Yes. HDMI and CVBS operate in parallel. CVBS is standard-definition PAL or NTSC; it does not carry UHD video.

Can it decode several cameras as a mosaic?

This specification covers one received programme. Multi-camera mosaic decoding is not a confirmed HDD-276 feature. For an MPTS input, one service is selected for decoding.

Which codecs are used for IP transcoding?

The transcoded output uses H.265/HEVC or H.264/AVC. MPEG-2 output encoding is not specified. If a different input codec is required, confirm support for the installed firmware before ordering.

Which streaming protocols are supported?

SRT, HTTP, HLS, FLV, RTSP, RTMP/RTMPS and UDP/RTP are supported. Select a protocol and stream configuration compatible with the source and destination. NDI is not included in this specification.

How is audio delivered?

Audio is available as HDMI embedded stereo and through the analog stereo output. IP transcoding supports AAC or G.711 audio encoding at 48 kHz.

Are streaming and management on separate Ethernet ports?

No. The unit has one RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port shared by incoming streams, transcoded output and browser-based management.

What information should be supplied when ordering?

Specify the input codec, resolution, frame rate, bitrate and protocol; required HDMI or CVBS format; audio codec; and transcoded IP output settings. Confirm the hardware revision if enclosure dimensions are critical.
