Media Links Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Global Links announces its new Ethernet over SDI network interfaces for its MD-8000 line of hitless switching video transport solutions.
The robust new cards offer a bi-directional (transport and receive) uncompressed HD / SD-SDI / ASI multi-service delivery solution that support up to 1,033Mb of Ethernet frames over traditional point-to-point local loop video services. In addition to supporting electrical coaxial interfaces, the cards support SMPTE 297M optical standards for enhanced modulation, as well as providing an efficient long-range signal transport vehicle for Ethernet traffic.
Two models are available;
An enhanced feature of the cards includes a mixed mode configuration, which offers network providers the advantage of transmitting and receiving different signal types (HD, SD, and ASI) simultaneously. The cards also support single mode operations.
The active loop output provides facilities with an external signal input monitoring tool. Seamless integration with the Media Links Network Management System (SNMP) ensures full system configuration, alarm reporting, and remote monitoring.
The business benefits for carrier class media networks, studio interconnects, video transport contribution applications, content delivery infrastructures, and live / recorded file-based applications serve as a gateway between an Ethernet network and an HD/SD-SDI/ASI environment. Network providers are no longer limited as to what services they can provide as this solution accelerates the provisioning of Ethernet connections over the valuable network assets.
The new MD8000-VIF-T Ethernet over SDI network interface will be showcased at CCW – Content & Communications World, booth 801.
