Reach viewers everywhere

Simultaneously live stream to YouTube, Facebook, and other content delivery networks and content management systems using SRT, HLS, MPEG-DASH, custom RTMP/RTMPS, and RTSP. At the same time, use the built-in streaming server to stream locally to web browsers, smart TVs, and set-top boxes.

Deep integration with Kaltura and Panopto video platforms means no complicated stream URLs to set up. Just schedule your webcast events or start streaming right from Pearl-2’s built-in touch screen.

Share your webcasts

Locally share unicast or multicast streams to up to 50 viewers with popular streaming protocols like HTTP, HLS, FLV, ASF, UPnP, and SAP.

Stream securely

Use SRT end-to-end 256-bit AES encryption, HLS and MPEG-DASH over HTTPS, or RTMPS for secure content streaming.

Use SRT for high-quality, low-latency video streaming

The Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) protocol uses the latest in live streaming technology to keep your productions looking great. Add a remote guest or contributor over SRT to bring professional-quality sources into your Pearl-powered productions.
