The Osprey-230 Delivers
High-Performance Video Capture

The Osprey-230 is designed for today’s high performance systems, delivering professional-level features and functionality, such as PCI-X compatibility, for best-quality streaming results.

Plus it's low profile configuration allows for greater usability in small form factor computers, making it the ideal solution for rack-mount encoding farms, custom enclosures, and other form factor constrained environments.


The Osprey-230 ships with a breakout cable for video and audio inputs.

There are several other breakout options available for the Osprey-230 to meet your specific work environment requirements which are a breakout box and a breakout rack panel.


Optional Input Connectors

The breakout box has inputs for composite video, S-Video, as well as balanced & unbalanced audio. It also features unbalanced (RCA) and balanced (XLR) audio connectors.


The 1U rack input box has the same type of inputs as the breakout box but provides an additional set of inputs. This provides rack-savings benefits when using multiple Osprey-230 streaming capture cards. The breakout panel is also available as a bundle kit with two Osprey-230 cards.

Professional content creators will also gain the flexibility
they need for working with various media inputs, output
formats and system interfaces.
