The Abekas 6000 by Accom features high-quality I-frame compression.
At IBC2004, Accom debuted its Abekas 6000 production server with new HD technology that allows users to mix and match SD and HD channels as necessary.
With high-quality I-frame compression, the Abekas 6000 provides frame-accurate editing on up to eight record/playback channels in standard definition, and up to four HD channels. Optimized for operation in a production network, the server features Gigabit Ethernet, a Fibre Channel option, individual audio-track editing and an updated Content Management Panel.
Having the ability to handle both SD and HD makes it well-suited for post-production, sports coverage and other SD or HD applications for European networks or for international co-production.
