Magewell Modator 2U Rackmount Chassis
Delivers the robust capabilities of ’s IP encoders and decoders in a scalable, high-density form factor
The Magewell Modator 2U is a rackmount chassis that holds up to 10 hot-swappable Magewell encoder and decoder modules. The converter modules bring the reliability and low-performance of Magewell’s stand-alone devices, and allow them to be installed into one condensed, centrally managed unit.
Why it matters: Designed for 24/7 operation with a fan cooled chasis and dual power supplies for redundancy, the Modator is well-suited for high reliability requirements. Its high density, modular design means that a mess of individual converters is a thing of the past.
Sales Opportunities: Perfect for customers who are looking to invest in larger NDI installs – from Live production, Houses of worship and corporate AV installs, the Modator provides a scalable, manageable and reliable solution to conversion.
Modator 2U
The Modator family brings the reliability and low-latency performance of the Magewell’s standalone encoders and decoders to a high-density, modular, rackmount form factor. The Modator 2U chassis fits standard rack deployments and supports up to 10 Modator modules.
Designed for 24/7 Operation
Featuring dual power supplies and optimized heat dissipation for 24/7 operation, Modator 2U is well-suited to use cases with high reliability requirements.
Independent Encoding & Decoding
Each installed module can work independently to convert high-quality video and audio signals to and from IP streams.
LED Touch Screen
Through the LED touch screen, users can turn the chassis on or off; view the status of the chassis and each installed module; and configure network settings.
