E20 – compact H.264 encoder module The E20 features 2 mini BNC connectors for HD SDI in (on the left) and HD SDI loop through out (on the right). It features the same encoding performance and the same firmware as its full size companion the E120. It is just significantly smaller and lighter. It may be equipped with various add-on board options. Starting from the simple 38116 add-on board for just the Ethernet connection with or without RJ45 connector.

 

E20 – compact H.264 encoder module with wifi option Here the E20 compact H.264 encoder module is equipped with the 38139 wifi add-on module. This add-on features the Carambola 2 wifi module (400MHz MPIS processor, 64MB RAM, 16 MB Flash, openWRT based). Alternatively other add-on modules may be plugged on top. Please see the add-on page for further details.
