Wellav CMP 200 adds 24 HDMI encoding in 1RU chassis
Wellav has released the CMP 200, a new modular video processing platform. This next-generation solution offers multi-channel encoding, HD transcoding, and IPTV+QAM distribution, specifically designed for applications in hospitality, education, and multi-dwelling units (MDUs). It features a 1RU chassis with dual power options, six hot-swappable module slots, an IP switch, and supports up to 24 HDMI HD encoding or 48 CVBS SD encoding.
Key Takeaways
- The CMP 200 uses a 19-inch 1RU chassis with dual power supplies and six hot-swappable functional module slots.
- Front-panel connectivity includes 4 GbE Ethernet ports and 2 SFP ports, with 2 GbE ports for management and 2 for IP stream in/out.
- Wellav says the platform supports up to 24 HDMI HD encoding channels or 48 CVBS SD encoding channels.
- The system supports up to 120 IP inputs and 120 IP outputs for SPTS and MPTS workflows.
- Software notes list the latest SW versions as 1.6.x and call out fixes for TXS-00 front-panel LEDs, PID filtering errors, and a possible hang during NIT table changes.
Why It Matters
The CMP 200 gives operators a dense 1RU option for encoding, transcoding, and IPTV+QAM distribution in hospitality, education, government, and MDU environments. That matters because Wellav is combining reception, modulation, and IP stream handling in one modular chassis, rather than splitting those functions across separate boxes. The product page also shows a broad module ecosystem, with dedicated receiving, encoding, modulating, and other functional cards. The main signal to watch is whether Wellav’s 1.6.x software line and module matrix continue to expand across the CMP 200 family.
