Yuan SC6T0N4 HDMI AI+ 4-Channel HDMI AI Hardware Video Encoder with 11th Gen Intel Core i7 at 4K30

Many classrooms and meeting spaces run HD cameras and laptops that never need a 4K60 encode. The Yuan SC6T0N4 HDMI AI+ is a four-channel HDMI AI hardware video encoder for those sources, switching and streaming up to four HDMI 1.4 inputs from one unit with on-device AI for tracking, background effects and handwriting capture.

Inputs are four HDMI 1.4 ports, with embedded LPCM audio and an analogue line or mic input. Outputs are two HDMI 2.0 ports for multiview or programme, at up to 4096×2160 at 60fps, with embedded LPCM audio and an analogue line output. Encoding runs at up to 4096×2160 at 30fps or 1080p at 60fps, including PC modes, while the outputs can still run 4K at 60fps. The SC6T0N4 HDMI AI+ streams Full NDI, TS over UDP, RTSP, RTMP, HLS and SRT, with NDI HX and Dante AV-H as optional protocols that need a licence.

An 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1165G7 runs the built-in AI functions: face tracking, background effect, handwriting extraction and ePTZ, with custom functions available on request. Yuan’s QCAP and QDEEP SDKs and the Intel OpenVINO toolkit are supported. Two gigabit ports, two USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 ports are fitted, while Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LTE Cat20 and 5G Sub-6 are optional. It runs from a 19V DC input. The SC6T0N4 HDMI2.0 AI+ takes HDMI 2.0 and encodes at 4K60, and the SC6E0N1 AIO suits a single channel with DVI-I and analogue inputs.

Recording goes to an external USB 3.0 drive or an internal SATA drive, which is not included, so storage is worth specifying with the order. We supply the SC6T0N4 HDMI AI+ configured and tested with the cameras, displays and network it will connect to, with any drive, wireless module and licences fitted before it ships.
