TurboBox-mini™ NA221A Brings Major Changes to Live Broadcasting

(Taipei, Taiwan—March 5, 2012) Users engaging in video filming and video live casting used to need desktop PC to work on and accomplish projects and video broadcasting on the site. The desktop PC with the professional video capture card fitted inside integrates with the on-site production system and digital cameras for live broadcasting; therefore, both the desktop host and video capture card were vital to the live production.

The TurboBox-mini™ That Makes It Possible
The users want a very much smaller system to replace the original desktop host. They not only want the system to be small, but also want the system to feature the capability of video capture card, so they can work on the live production on-site. In the light of the circumstances, Netstor creates the TurboBox-mini NA221A, the external single PCIe enclosure, that brings the change to the situation in live broadcasting.

Empowering Third-Party PCIe Card to Work on Laptop
The most innovative feature of TurboBox-mini is that users are able to use the third-party PCIe card, e.g. video capture card, audio DSP card, on laptop. The users only need to fit the third-party PCIe card into the TurboBox-mini, and connect TurboBox-mini to laptop through ExpressCard/34 interface, and then they can begin to work on projects on laptop with the power of the third-party PCIe card given through the TurboBox-mini.
