1.1 About the ION-R100
The ION-R100 single port decoder delivers high quality H.264/MJPEG video decoding and
display to the video surveillance market. It is an embedded, high-performance digital video
decoder, capable of decoding H.264/MJPEG video to an analog (SD) or HDMI (720p/1080p)
display.
Embedding
support for networked API’s, the ION-R100 can be integrated into a networked video
management system allowing for centralized monitoring and management in a scalable and
expandable IP surveillance system. Contact IONODES for a list of supported VMS systems.
The high-performance decoding capabilities of the ION-R100 offer a cost-effective way to
decode and display analog and digital camera streams while providing the benefits of video over
IP networks.
The ION-R100 provides innovative configuration options and tools that can significantly
decrease the amount of time and effort required to deploy a unit. Using web-based configuration
tools, users can easily and remotely manage all aspects of the appliance.
To support high-performance decoding, while keeping the total cost of ownership within budget
constraints, the ION-R100 uses highly efficient H.264 stream decompression and supports
optional MJPEG stream decoding as well.
Combined with the IONODES line of IP-based video encoders, the ION-R100 provides the ability
to create fully functional point-to-point links. The ION-R100 is also fully compatible and can
decode H.264/MJPEG video streams provided by most third-party IP cameras and video
encoders on the market.
