Vyvx Offers End-to-End Digital Video Transmission Service
Tulsa OK (SPX) Jul 27, 2004 Vyvx, a provider of fiber-optic and satellite transmission solutions to the media and entertainment industry, announced Monday that it has launched end- to-end 270 Mbps occasional service for transporting live and non-live video content in eight key markets in the United States. The service, utilizing Serial Digital Interface (SDI), enables broadcasters, film/television production and post-production, and other video content providers to deliver and receive standard-definition content uncompressed at 270 Mbps. Broadcasters providing news coverage in High- Definition Television (HDTV) can use Serial Digital Transport Interface (SDTI) for sending and receiving compressed HDTV feeds at 270 Mbps or Asynchronous Serial Interface (ASI) at 213 Mbps. "The industry is moving toward end-to-end digital transmission of live and non-live video content, and Vyvx is leading the way in helping our customers in this migration," said Derek Smith, vice president of Vyvx. "The occasional SDI service offers film and television production and post-production companies the first real solution for moving their content on an ad-hoc basis in the highest possible quality - uncompressed 270 Mbps - over long-haul distances. "As national and local news coverage of sports and other events continues their movement to HD, the occasional SDTI and ASI services offer them an effective, efficient solution for transporting compressed HDTV feeds at the highest quality possible," Smith said. The occasional 270 Mbps service, delivered over the same MPLS platform that was trusted to deliver the live HDTV feed of the Super Bowl in February, is now available in eight markets across the United States: Atlanta, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Phoenix, San Diego and San Francisco. The markets were chosen based on customer demand and concentration of media and film/television production companies. Related Links Vyvx SpaceDaily Search SpaceDaily Subscribe To SpaceDaily Express
