• Video compression: H.265, H.264
• Audio compression: G.711
• Network: 10/100 Ethernet, PoE (IEEE 802.3af)
• Max streaming bitrate: 6 Mbps per channel
• USB: USB 2.0, max 2TB (FAT32/exFAT)
The GV-Cloud Bridge is an encoder gateway that connects up to 4 ONVIF or GV‑IP cameras to central monitoring software, enabling integration with GV‑Center V2, GV‑Recording Server, and GV‑Cloud VMS. It supports RTMP streaming for live broadcasting to social media platforms such as YouTube and Twitch, and includes web‑based configuration with support for up to 32 user accounts.
The device provides up to 8 sensor inputs and 8 alarm outputs via connected cameras and up to 4 GV‑IO Box units for alarm system integration. GV‑VPN support allows up to 8 mapping devices with 15 Mbps total bandwidth for secure remote connections, while a USB port supports edge recording to local storage up to 2TB (FAT32/exFAT).
Measures 77 × 22 × 70 mm and weighs 173g, operating from 0–60°C on 12V DC (1.25A) or PoE 802.3af with 7W consumption. It includes a QR code for quick connection to the GV‑Eye mobile app, requires the GV‑IP Device Utility for firmware updates, and carries CE, FCC, LVD, and RoHS certifications. Note: RS‑485 is not functional.
