Eco Capture AIO M.2

The Magewell Eco Capture AIO M.2 (All-In-One) is a versatile, professional-grade internal capture card designed for maximum flexibility. Unlike single-interface cards, the “AIO” model provides multiple input standards on a single M.2 2280 chip, making it a “Swiss Army knife” for system integrators.

• Core Functions & Capabilities
  Universal Input Capture: Supports one channel of video via HDMI, 3G-SDI, or even legacy Analog (CVBS/Composite). This allows a single card to interface with almost any camera or video source from the last 20 years.
• 2K Resolution Support: Captures high-definition video at resolutions up to 2048×1080 (2K) or 1080p at 60fps.
• Hardware Video Processing: Features a dedicated FPGA-based engine that handles up/down/cross-scaling, color space conversion, and de-interlacing on-board, preventing CPU spikes on the host computer.
• Legacy-to-Digital Bridge: The BNC connection can be configured via software to accept standard-definition composite analog video, bridging the gap between old-school hardware and modern streaming platforms.

Key Features for System Efficiency

• Low Profile & Efficient Power: Conforms to the M.2 2280 standard size and consumes less than 3W of power, allowing it to operate comfortably in fanless, battery-powered, or ultra-thin enclosures.
• Multiple Stream Replication: Can deliver the same input signal as multiple, independent streams to different software apps simultaneously, with each stream having its own resolution and frame rate settings.
• High-Speed Interface: Uses a PCIe Gen2 x2 interface, providing ample bandwidth (up to 700MB/s) for uncompressed video data transfer.
• Reliable Monitoring: Includes a status LED that provides visual feedback (pulsing for no signal, steady for signal lock), which is invaluable during troubleshooting in embedded setups.

Flexibility for Organizations & Domestic Users

• Custom OEM & Portable Equipment

Function: Ideal for manufacturers building portable “all-in-one” lecture capture boxes or mobile production units.

Flexibility: Because it supports HDMI, SDI, and CVBS, an OEM can offer a single product that works with whatever cable the end-user happens to have.

• Medical & Training Simulation

Function: Integrates into medical training stations that may need to capture feeds from modern digital endoscopes (HDMI/SDI) or older analog medical equipment (CVBS).

Flexibility: The 24/7 duty cycle ensures that critical training sessions or surgical observations are never interrupted by hardware fatigue.

• Digital Signage & Information Kiosks

Function: Powers high-resolution kiosks in public spaces that require a live video feed, such as airport information hubs or interactive museum displays.

Flexibility: The M.2 form factor allows the PC to be mounted directly behind a thin monitor, keeping the entire footprint compact and hidden from the public.

• Legacy Media Digitization

Function: Used by organizations or archivists to digitize older video tapes (via CVBS) or professional SDI archives into modern digital formats.

Flexibility: Native support for both Windows and Linux allows for easy integration into automated batch-processing servers.

• Domestic / Prosumer Power Users

Function: Perfect for “Small Form Factor” (SFF) PC builders who want a single capture card that can handle a professional SDI camcorder one day and a game console (HDMI) the next.

Flexibility: The included breakout cables (MMCX to BNC/HDMI) allow users to keep their PC build clean while still having professional-grade, locking connections for their gear.
