UPCOMING WEBINAR – How UNLV set the standard for lecture capture with Nexus – November 19. Register now!
The new dual network setup on Epiphan Pearl devices allows users to split their network traffic between two separate Ethernet connections. With firmware 4.24, scheduled for release later this fall, Pearl will support a second network connection over USB, with a USB to Ethernet adapter.
This feature enables one connection to be dedicated to video streaming while the other handles control data, such as device management, remote access, or configuration.
By separating video streaming from control traffic, users can optimize bandwidth usage and reduce the risk of network congestion, leading to smoother video streams and more responsive control operations.
Segregating traffic can enhance security by isolating sensitive control data from the public-facing video stream, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or cyber threats.

Pearl-2, Pearl Nexus, and Pearl Mini running firmware 4.24 or later, can support Ethernet connectivity by way of a USB to Ethernet adapter.
This feature will work on Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, and Pearl Nexus.
Most USB to Ethernet adapters will work, but we cannot guarantee every model will work properly.
This feature is designed to separate control from video streaming or transport, however Pearl systems are capable of sending multiple streams over the network, for redundant workflows.
