System Management

• Network management via RemoteManager The HDPC RemoteManager™ simplifies configuring, monitoring and provides a scalable solution for both centralized and distributed architectures. With the available standard IP interfaces, the CodecSys HDCP can be easily incorporated into your distribution network. It provides significant operational advantages and cost benefits by connecting multiple encoders and multiplexers via switched IP networks. As a result, any encoder on the network can efficiently be part of any multiplex, essentially creating a “virtual headend.”
