SKU CH-5CC0-C1BB6

Records and streams 4K/UHD video with HEVC encoding, HDMI 1.4 input, HDMI 2.0 output, and 1Gb Ethernet for low-latency IP delivery

  • 4K UHD clarity via HDMI 1.4 input and 2.0 output
  • HEVC encoding delivers H.264 quality at half the bit rate
  • Stand-alone operation — no external computer required for streaming or recording
  • Versatile audio I/O with Euroblock and 3.5 mm connections
  • Low-latency streaming over RTMP, RTSP, HLS, Unicast and Multicast

4K/UHD AV-over-IP Encoder

The TASCAM VSR-265 is a stand-alone 4K/UHD streaming encoder, decoder and recorder. It handles live production, recording and IP distribution without an external computer. Built for corporate, education and house-of-worship installations that need a single half-rack unit for end-to-end 4K workflows. It is not suited for buyers who require multi-channel switching or built-in graphics overlays.

3840×2160 HEVC recording headroom

The unit encodes and decodes 4K video at 3840×2160 using HEVC, delivering H.264-equivalent quality at roughly half the bit rate. HDMI v1.4a input and HDMI v2.0 output provide the video path. The 1 Gb Ethernet link sets the practical ceiling for outbound streams; higher-bit-rate or multi-stream contributions will saturate the port. No internal storage is mentioned, so continuous recording relies on network targets.

Web UI and balanced audio I/O

A browser-based interface works on tablets and desktops for configuring unicast, multicast and RTMP streams. Audio connectivity covers balanced analog Euroblock/Phoenix terminals and unbalanced 3.5 mm mini-stereo jacks. These connectors integrate directly into commercial AV racks without extra adapters. The package includes no rack ears, cables or software licences beyond the embedded firmware.

Questions about this item

Will the HDMI v1.4a input accept 4K signals from my older camera that outputs 3840x2160?

Yes, the HDMI v1.4a input supports 4K/UHD resolution at 3840x2160, so it will accept the signal from your camera.

How can I confirm the unit is streaming correctly after connecting it to the network?

Use the web browser UI on a tablet or desktop to view the live status, verify the encoder is active, and check that the selected protocol (RTMP, RTSP, HLS, Unicast, or Multicast) shows a healthy bit-rate.

Does the box include the Euroblock connectors for the balanced analog audio inputs and outputs?

The unit provides balanced analog Euroblock/Phoenix low-voltage wire connectors and unbalanced 3.5 mm mini-stereo jacks; the connectors are part of the chassis, so no separate plugs are required.
