# Related Epiphan products that work with Pearl systems

*Applies to: Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nano, Pearl Nexus.*

Pearl systems are part of a wider Epiphan product range. The products below complement Pearl systems rather than replace them, and each has its own documentation.

**Cameras.** The EC20 PTZ camera is built for the Epiphan ecosystem and can be used as a video source for Pearl systems. See the EC20 documentation for specifications and control options.

**Capture cards.** AV.io HD+ captures HDMI or DVI sources, and AV.io SDI+ captures SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI sources. Both are USB capture cards that send video into a computer for use with software applications. They are not encoders and do not stream or record on their own, which is the fundamental difference between the AV.io capture cards and Pearl systems.

**Cloud services.** Epiphan Edge provides fleet management, monitoring, and firmware updates for Pearl systems from one dashboard. Epiphan Unify produces and switches live video remotely. Epiphan Connect captures broadcast-quality video from Microsoft Teams or Zoom for use in a live production.

**Bundles.** Epiphan offers bundles that pair a Pearl system with an EC20 camera for specific use cases: Pearl Nexus with EC20 for lecture capture, Pearl Mini with EC20 for studio production, Pearl Nano with EC20 for event streaming, and Pearl-2 with EC20 for multi-camera production.
