Cisco IP/TV 3427 Broadcast Servers
Cisco IP/TV 3427 Broadcast Servers are positioned as high-availability,
high-performance video servers that support multiple video capture cards. These
servers capture real-time and prerecorded content and stream it over the network
using high-quality MPEG-4 compression techniques.
Cisco IP/TV 3427 Servers are available in three models: IP/TV 3427-C1, IP/TV
3427-C2, and IP/TV 3427-C3. These servers differ in the number and kind of
media streams supported, and in the number and type of video capture cards
installed. (See
Table 1-1 for a description of the video capture cards and streaming
support for IP/TV Broadcast Servers.)
