Nick Rashby, President, AJA Video Systems: HELO Delivers Unprecedented Flexibility, Connectivity and Scalability for Professional Streaming and Recording Needs

At NAB 2016 AJA Video Systems announced HELO, a new H.264 streaming and recording device. HELO is AJA's first standalone streaming product and offers a range of professional workflow options with both 3G-SDI and HDMI inputs and outputs, the power to handle up to 1080p recording formats and a simple web-based UI for easy configuration. It allows users to simultaneously stream video signals directly to Web Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) while recording either to an SD card, USB drives or network-based storage, with dedicated record and stream buttons for easy operation.

Producers who stream content in any setting often need a separate recording of the source to hand off to clients or editorial, and HELO makes this easy with the ability to simultaneously stream and also record to SD cards, USB drives or network storage, said Nick Rashby, President, AJA Video Systems. This is a really great product, small and easily portable, that opens up a world of new streaming workflows to our customers in AV, live events, houses of worship, webcasting, corporate communications, production and post.
