Vizrt Viz Connect Solo 12G

The Viz Connect Solo 12G stands apart from typical streaming boxes by uniting broadcast-grade 12G-SDI with HDMI 2.0 in a fanless, pocket-sized chassis. It accepts up to 2160p60 and encodes simultaneously to H.264, H.265, Full NDI, and NDI|HX, so a single source can feed multiple destinations without extra converters. Genlock, frame sync, scaling, de-interlacing, and colour correction are built in, making it a true production tool rather than a simple encoder.

Highlights

• 12G-SDI input with loop-through plus HDMI 2.0 input and monitor output
• Encodes up to 4K UHD 2160p60 to H.264, H.265, Full NDI, and NDI|HX
• Ultra-low latency streaming over SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, NDI, HLS, and TS over UDP/RTP
• Simultaneous multi-destination streaming (3–4 concurrent outputs)
• Fanless, compact design with 12V DC power and USB cellular modem support
• Web-based UI and REST API for remote control; tally light and intercom support

In daily use

Drop the Viz Connect Solo 12G into any live production, house of worship, or corporate event. Connect a camera via 12G-SDI or HDMI, send the loop-through to a monitor or switcher, and start streaming to YouTube, Facebook, or a custom SRT server. The built-in Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet handle network connectivity, while a USB port accepts a cellular modem for bonded or backup internet. Recording to SD card or USB drive runs in parallel with streaming, and the 3.5mm audio jacks allow analogue in/out for external mixers or headphones. Because it is fanless, it stays silent in small rooms and can be powered from a standard 12V battery for field use.
