Z3 Technology FSDI-13A Dual Camera Full 3G-SDI Encoder for Sony FCB-EV9520L, FCB-EV9500L, Tamron MP3010M-EV HD Block Cameras & Boson IR Cameras
The Z3 Technology FSDI‑13A is an AI-capable, Made in USA, NDAA compliant dual-camera encoder supporting 3G‑SDI and infrared (IR) cameras. Compatible with Sony FCB‑EV9520L, EV9500L, Tamron MP3010M‑EV, and FLIR Boson® models, it delivers low-latency H.265/H.264 video encoding for UAV, industrial, and security applications.
The FSDI-13A is a high-performance dual camera H.265/H.264 video encoder designed and manufactured in the USA. It is fully NDAA compliant, making it ideal for government, defense, and critical infrastructure applications requiring secure, trusted video hardware.
Engineered for industrial, UAV, inspection, and surveillance systems, the FSDI-13A delivers exceptional versatility by supporting both a visible camera and a thermal infrared camera. This dual-channel capability enables advanced image fusion and situational awareness across diverse missions and environments.
The FSDI-13A encoder supports real-time H.265 (HEVC) and H.264 video encoding, capable of streaming over IP networks while simultaneously recording to USB, microSD, or NFS storage. This allows for flexible deployment in both remote and networked applications.
Compatible with popular 3G‑SDI and HD‑SDI block cameras including the Sony® FCB-EV9520L, FCB-EV9500L, Tamron® MP3010M‑EV, and long‑range thermal cameras such as the FLIR® Boson®, FLIR® Tau® 2, and Leonardo DRS® Tenum®, the FSDI‑13A delivers unmatched integration flexibility for visible and infrared imaging systems.
Whether used for industrial inspection, security, or UAV payload integration, the FSDI‑13A “Made in America” NDAA compliant encoder ensures reliable, high-quality video performance backed by secure U.S. manufacturing standards.
