T1A

Built for the slot that already exists in every server.

Where T1A Fits

  • Half-height, half-length PCIe Gen 4 slot
  • The most common server expansion slot
  • One ASIC VPU chip

How it Deploys

  • Installs in 1U & 2U servers
  • Works in x86 & Arm hosts
  • No bifurcation required
  • Same FFmpeg, GStreamer, and libxcoder path

Use Cases

  • General-purpose transcoding fleets
  • Live streaming origin nodes
  • VOD ABR ladder generation
  • AI-assisted encoding pipelines
  • Default choice when the host has a free PCIe slot

Industry applications

From live, UGC streaming to cloud gaming
to large-scale security.

NETINT Quadra VPUs power video-intensive industries that demand predictable performance, extreme efficiency, and the ability to scale without breaking cost, power or operational limits.

Every server has a PCIe slot.
Is yours sitting empty?

You’re one slot away from real video silicon.
