Inca Modular Series 4400
Linear & ABR High-Density Transcoder
Transcode, transrate or downscale up to 48x HD or 120x SD
MPEG-4, MPEG-2, & HEVC options for sources & outputs
Input modules available for GigE, 8VSB/QAM, or ASI
Multiple 1RU options with video & audio transcoding
Award-winning VidiOS™ stream monitoring & analysis
Intelligent stream redundancy & automatic service failover
Flexible And Scalable High-Density Transcoder
Linear and Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) Support
The 4400 delivers high-density linear transcoding for cable and IPTV operators and supports adaptive bitrate (ABR) for multiscreen applications. This flexible and scalable platform can transcode, transrate or downscale up to 48 HD or 120 SD programs to MPEG-4 in just one rack unit of space, with integrated grooming and monitoring of all streams.
Multiple 1RU Chassis Options
The high-density transcoder includes modular options with the flexibility to support IP (GigE), QAM, 8VSB (ATSC), or ASI inputs to passthrough, deMUX or transcoded IP outputs. The Inca Modular Series 4400 comes in three chassis options, the 4410, 4420 and 4440, to meet a variety of business needs.
VidiOS™ Stream Analysis
All models include powerful and easy-to-use VidiOS™ management and troubleshooting tools with inbound and outbound video thumbnails, stream download, extensive statistical analysis, and end-to-end process logging.
Transcode, Transrate and Downscale Digital Video for Linear or ABR Applications
Up to 48x HD or 120x SD Services • Supports HEVC • Redundancy and Failover Options
Extensible HEVC & OTT Capabilities
The 4400 high-density transcoder is compatible with legacy equipment and integrates with new video technologies, including HEVC and over-the-top (OTT) applications. This extensible platform allows operators to scale their infrastructure and easily add capacity as business needs grow, thus reducing capital and operating expenses.
Auto Failover and Intelligent Stream Redundancy
Protect video streams with N+1 chassis redundancy, 1+1 redundancy, or customized failover options. The Inca 4400 allows operators to prioritize stream importance and reduce potential revenue impact. With Intelligent Stream Redundancy operators have the power to specifically choose which services to back up; select a handful of high-value content or back up a full chassis.
Full Headend Visual Monitoring
The Modular Series 4400 enables full headend visibility with included probe integration for Inca’s All Seeing Eye (ASE) monitoring system. The ASE provides operators with an interactive mosaic view of all video streams in a headend, simplifying troubleshooting and analysis. Live statistics, alarms and interactive reporting provide unparalleled insights into video operations.

Customer Success Story
“Inca’s video Intelligent Delivery system is hands down the best out there. I’ve never seen any other company doing what Inca’s doing with that. They just give you so much information into the source and also the egress of each channel that comes in and also leaves the Inca transcoder. Until their competitors can do what Inca’s doing with their Intelligent Video Delivery system, there’s just no comparison.”
Applications
Linear Transcoding
For transcoding up to 48x HD or 120x SD programs to or from MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and HEVC.
ABR Transcoding
Transcode a single service to multiple frame-aligned video streams for adaptive bit rate delivery to multi-screen devices. Compatible with existing packagers, including Inca’s 5420 ABR Packager and Origin Server.
New HEVC Module
Inca’s new HXC1 module is compatible with the existing 4430 and new 4440 chassis and provides a powerful and extensible architecture for and next-generation HEVC codec support.
IP
Affordably meet IP video processing needs with product configurations for requirements of all sizes and input options. Stream processing options include: PI and program filter and remap, jitter correction and stripping null padding.
8VSB/QAM
With up to 16 optional 8VSB and QAM input modules, operators can receive all local 8VSB or DVB-C Annex B QAM broadcast channels, including all primary and secondary sub-channels, and transcode them into IP outputs.
ASI
Receive up to 24 ASI sources per chassis and ensure seamless compatibility with existing ASI equipment in any IP video network.
