ITV-AS180C ADAPTIVE BIT RATE TRANSCODER
The ITV-AS180c Adaptive Bit Rate Transcoder is a highly flexible compression appliance tailored to adaptive streaming based Broadcast, Web, and Mobile video applications. The ITV-AS180c gives video service providers a proven, easy to deploy real time adaptive streaming solution.
ITV-AS180C APPLICATION
The ITV-AS180c Adaptive Bit Rate Transcoder is a powerful real time transcoding solution designed to meet rapidly evolving demands of adaptive rate streaming video delivery applications. The product meets the challenge by providing high quality video to a wide variety of viewing devices over a wide variety of networks and network conditions and meets the demanding requirements of Broadcast, Web, and Mobile video services delivery. As sports, movies, and other programming is more commonly viewed on PCs, tablet computers, smart phones, and IP enabled set-top boxes, dynamic adaptive rate streaming technology enables a new paradigm in video service delivery. Employing cutting edge adaptive rate streaming protocols, the ITV-AS180c permits video services to be delivered to any device, anywhere, and over any IP network.
3 ITV-AS180C MODULES IN OPTIONAL 1RU RACK MOUNT TRAY
The scalable and cost effective modular design is capable of simultaneously transcoding and formatting video services into multiple segmented adaptive profiles ranging from full HD down to sub-SD resolutions. An elegant streaming protocol permits a video decoder to seamlessly and dynamically adapt to the profile best suited to it capabilities and current network conditions.
ImmediaTV’s Adaptive Bit Rate Transcoder is equipped with the latest advances in video compression technology. State of the art video processing combined with our unique encoding technology permits the best possible video quality at a given resolution and bit rate profile.
Up to three ITV-AS180c units can be installed in a 1RU rack mount tray. Using ImmediaTV’s unique transcoding architecture, multiple adaptive rate streaming profiles can be supported in a compact modular unit.
