Portable and Packed to Go

HELO’s small and robust form factor is essential for your busy schedule. Live events, webcasts, production, and post locations vary and you need a device that can take the heat. HELO is designed to travel well, fit wherever needed and continuously deliver; all with full-size connectivity.

HELO offers both 3G-SDI and HDMI source inputs in a single device with the ability to encode up to 1080p 60 in beautiful and efficient H.264.

Stream out to your CDN and record to SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, USB storage, or NFS or CIFS-mounted network-based shares simultaneously.

Encode

Your goal is efficiency with beautiful results.

HELO encodes to H.264/MPEG-4 ensuring bandwidth efficiencies with widely compatible files. From tablets to smartphones, desktops to Smart TVs, no translation is necessary.

2-Channel stereo audio can be encoded at up to 24-bit 48kHz at data rates ranging from 32kbps to 256kps in MPEG-4 AAC-LC, allowing you to make the most appropriate choice for your project's needs.

Stream

Streaming can be complex. HELO makes it simple.

A USB connection and robust web browser-based UI allow you to set up and configure your CDN connection before you even arrive at your event. Once there, simply press the Stream button and deliver your project across HELO’s Ethernet connection, which allows support for RTP/RTSP, RTMP, and RTMPE for Facebook Live as well as Unicast. HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) support adds compatibility with Apple's popular iOS devices and more.

HELO's web-based GUI even provides a video preview window so that you can ensure you are getting just what you expect.

An AV Mute setting allows you to mute live video and audio for your stream and either load your graphic with event details or utilize a built-in holding graphic before your event goes live.

Record

Live means Now. Life means Pressure.

HELO offers a dedicated Record button right on the front of HELO’s small and mobile interface for immediate recording. It also provides simultaneous recording while streaming and redundant recording of one file to two media destinations simultaneously. This enables you to hand a client a copy of the event right after the recording ends while maintaining a master in-house.

Mass Media

Cost-effective media choices.

HELO’s H. 264-based encoding not only ensures beautiful, efficiently sized files, it means your recording medium choices are wide open. Utilize USB thumb sticks, drives, and RAIDs, common SD, SDHC, SDXC media, or network shares across a switch. Pick to suit your project.

Web Server Built-In

You serve the web. HELO serves you.

AJA eMini-Setup and HELO’s easy-to-use web browser interface make HELO simple to set up, configure and update firmware at any time. You can connect to HELO either via its direct USB port to set static/dynamic IP addresses through AJA eMini-Setup software or over the network using HELO’s web server-generated UI.

It's a Fast World. Capture It.

1080p 60 is the de facto standard today for the delivery of sports, live events, crystal clear video conferencing, webinars, and game capture. Simply connect any video device to HELO via 3G-SDI or HDMI and record H.264 files and stream as needed. HELO is the perfect complement to any professional workflow, easily connecting to a range of HD-capable devices.
