Advanced Broadcast Services is using Pinnacle Systems’ MediaStream 8000 server to help double channel capacity as it swells from 15 to 30.

Situated at Advanced Broadcast Services’ West London headquarters, the MediaStream 8000 delivers up to 100 channels with each chassis capable of 16 input/output channels, plus integration with other Pinnacle and third party products including archiving and automation systems.
