The WMT Terralink encoder family is Mobile Viewpoint’s portable servers that are typically used for professional outside broadcast and other point-to-point live streaming needs. The 19” rack mountable units can be used in SNG trucks, outside broadcast vans or studio set-up’s to send live video streams reliably, in high quality and with low latency. The enhanced REMI encoder provides additional remote production features.
The enhanced 2U Terralink xKxC (where K is the video format and C is number of video input channels) is a multi-camera encoder that can support up to 4 inputs and up to 4K video formats.
The standard 1U Terralink encoder can support video return, IFB and the option of bonded internal modems (5G/4G/3G) within the 1U form factor.
The enhanced 2U server additionally supports REMI (remote production) features including RCP control, Tally Light control and an enhanced IFB intercom utilizing integrated PreSonus hardware within the encoder.
All encoders can operate with the WMT range of decoders that are installed at the receiving end. The 2U enhanced encoder requires the 2U equivalent decoder to take advantage of the REMI features.
All encoders in the field can be remotely managed and controlled via Linkmatrix, a free-to-use management platform that operates from a browser on any device. This means non-technical journalists and production people in the field do not need to manage the units directly. Linkmatrix can manage individual encoders, destinations, show proxies, record & go, video return, transmission and cellular network status, and set-ip an array of different configurations.

2WAYLINK – this is an optional features to effectively allow the encoder to become both an encoder and decoder. A license can be added at any time to enable this feature on the 2C or 4C.
Standard video return is 720p via HDMI, but with 2WAYLINK it is possible to receive a full HD stream via HD-SDI. It can be used for high quality viewing or where local mixing is needed.
For 2WAYLINK to work, any return video needs a decoder in the network path.

The WMT TerraLink encoder family is Mobile Viewpoint’s portable servers typically used for professional outside broadcast and other point-to-point live streaming needs.
Except for the TerraLink Mini (-M), they are 19’ rack mountable. They can be used in SNG trucks, outside broadcast vans, or studio-to-studio to send live video streams reliably, in high quality, and with low latency.
