The endpoint registry allows seamless connection of devices or software outside MediaConnect to router inputs and outputs, with cross-account sharing managed via AWS Resource Access Manager. This reduces configuration overhead, latency, and cost by minimizing network hops and compute instance use.

Connection Manager provides visibility and control over shared connections, supporting scenarios like media distribution across partners and secure cross-organization video transport. This feature is available in all Regions hosting MediaConnect Router at no extra charge.
