SRT Gateway vendor hub · Last updated: June 30, 2026

Teradek SRT gateway workflows connect Prism family, rack contribution, encoder output, decoder return feed, live operations workflows to a controlled live video operations layer. Teradek Prism workflows are usually about reliable contribution from hardware encoders or controlled return feeds to decoders. Callaba sits on the receiving side as the cloud or self-hosted gateway where the SRT path becomes visible and operational.

Quick answer: where Callaba fits

Use the Teradek device or platform for the source-side job, then use Callaba as the SRT listener, cloud gateway, private gateway, recorder, Multiview surface, playback layer, route controller, and API-controlled operations plane.

Choose the Teradek SRT workflow you are building

Each guide focuses on one source or device family. Use this page as the parent hub when you are comparing which Teradek workflow belongs in the live path.

Workflow pattern

Teradek source to Callaba SRT gateway

Source side

Teradek device or platform

Encode, contribute, decode, or hand off the live feed from the production edge.

Callaba gateway

Receive, monitor, route, record, recover

Use SRT stats, preview, Multiview, output state, failover, and API control to operate the stream.

Outputs

Multiview, recording, playback, partner output, backup path

Turn one contribution boundary into a workflow the team can inspect and reuse.

Setup checklist for Teradek SRT workflows

  1. Confirm the exact Teradek model, firmware, role, output type, and SRT support before the event.
  2. Create a Callaba SRT server and choose the listener port, latency, stream ID, and passphrase policy.
  3. Open the required UDP port or port range on the firewall, AWS security group, or private network boundary.
  4. Configure the Teradek source as SRT Caller for most cloud workflows, then point it to the Callaba host and port.
  5. Verify connection state, incoming bitrate, RTT, packet loss, preview, audio, and recording before relying on the feed.
  6. Only after ingest is stable, add Multiview, playback, routing, partner output, failover, or API automation.
