Page 4: G265 Introduction
1. G265 Introduction 1.1. G265 Overview The GENESIS™265 (G265) Transceivers (encoder and decoder in one unit) are designed to transmit video and audio over standard Gigabit Ethernet with low latency and high image quality in real-time. As a decoder, with its unique decoding ability to decode up to 16 IP streams, the G265 can be used as multi-viewers or matrix switchers incorporated with RTSP IP sources for applications in security, conference, corporation, university etc. -
