Haivision Air Series Mobile Video Transmitter

Ultra-Compact Video Encoder and Bonded Cellular Transmitter

Haivision Air is a range of mobile video transmitters for broadcasting live news, sports and other types of events from anywhere over bonded cellular and IP networks. Designed to be extremely compact and portable, the Haivision Air transmitter encodes high quality video from SDI and HDMI sources, to H.265/HEVC or H.264/AVC at very low latency. Real-time video streams can then be transmitted with SST (Safe Streams Transport) over a bonded pair of 3G/4G or 5G modems, depending on the model. Haivision Air can also transmit live video over the public internet the SRT protocol with Ethernet or WiFi connectivity.

Other advanced features include the ability to simultaneously record live broadcasts which can be forwarded on as a progressive file, automatically sent as a clip once a recording has finished or stored on a local SD card. Haivision Air operators also benefit from receiving low latency return feeds to an external display and bidirectional IFB audio for real-time interaction with the production team. All of these features and more can be easily accessed from the Haivision Air’s intuitive front panel display.
