    ON/OFF Figure 1: LU600 As the LU600 powers up, it dials (connects) its modems, connects the WiFi / Ethernet interfaces to various networks and combines their bandwidth into a single consolidated broadband uplink connection. The LU600 can then encode incoming video into an H.264 (or HEVC) stream and transmit it over the aggregated bandwidth or use this bandwidth for DataBridge functionality.
  • Page 13: What's In The Lu600 Box

    The LU2000 server runs multiple Multi-Media Hub (MMH) instances, where each MMH recombines the streams received from a specific field unit (e.g. the LU600) into a discrete broadcast-quality video stream that can be played out over an integrated SDI interface on the LU2000 or streamed from the LU2000 to a CDN.
