The Marshall VS-101-HDSDI is a High Definition Video Server that allows real-time transmission of an SD/HD-SDI, HDMI, or NTSC/PAL composite video signal along with bi-directional AAC encoded high definition stereo audio over standard IP networks and the internet. The Marshall VS-101-HDSDI incorporates advanced H.264 and MJPEG compression technology. This allows 50% more compression capacity over an existing IP Network, while providing optimal video transmission quality even in networks with limited bandwidth.

The VS-101-HDSDI may be configured to operate as a Point-to-Point talent monitoring system. For example, the unit can operate as an encoder to compress and transmit A/V data over a LAN to another VS-101-HDSDI located in a Green Room or other location. The other unit can act as a decoder which receives the compressed data through the LAN and restores the data to its' original high definition state. Additionally, other computers or VS-101-HDSDI decoders connected to the same network can monitor both the audio and video in multiple locations throughout a venue such as dressing rooms, stage manager, or box office at the same time. When properly configured, the VS-101-HDSDI may be simultaneously monitored through the internet.
