Net Insight has expanded the capabilities of its Nimbra media network platform to 400G (Gigabit Ethernet) to make it easier for companies moving towards remote production.
According to the company, the addition of 400G to the Nimbra 1000 product family “empowers media companies to significantly reduce the cost of connectivity by offering four times the transport capacity”.
“400G elevates the entire media processing and transport platform to a future-ready foundation. New generation media networking enables our customers to easily scale live sports and distributed operations,” said Christer Bohm, VP product management at Net Insight.
“We’re providing service providers, production companies and broadcasters with the business-critical ability to take advantage of 400G connectivity. Whether you’re operating from a stadium, production truck, or central facility, 400G opens opportunities to deliver more content, with less cost.”
The first 400G applications will focus on high-capacity IP media transport, with support for both native 400GbE and denser 100GbE deployments, said Net Insight.
New media processing and data applications, taking full advantage of the hardware, are in development, it added.
