Responding to Critical Market Need
Broadcast Quality Video Stream
with little compression
Video Server Enabled with Video
Accelerators Phone
Broadcast Quality Video Stream Encoded / Transcoded Through Network to Support Multiple End Devices
Application Example
Codec
• The Growing Need to Convert from One Video Compression to Another – “Transcoding” with multiple formats and end points
Density
• Channel density capability to accommodate multiplatform (traditional and multiscreen), large scale distribution at higher resolutions
COTS
• With the shift to IP and cloud deployment, growing preference by operators for standard server-based broadcast solutions (no dedicated hardware)
HDTV
Tablet

Challenges of Today’s Network
• Service providers prefer using standard servers vs. dedicated hardware for video encoding/transcoding
• Standard Servers with software-based video processing solutions don’t scale well to support higher densities, and become costly
• Network demand for video encoding/transcoding is rising as user habits change
Single server capacity:6 streams (1080p30 AVC transcodes)
