Third Annual Sports & Technology Research Study
The Sports Video Group and the Consumer Electronics Association has released the
third-annual “Sports & Technology Research Survey, highlighting the power
that sports content has as both a driver of HD set sales as well as other new
technologies. The survey includes our exclusive 2008 Super Bowl Briefing as
well as new data about consumer online sports viewing behavior.
Studio Network Solutions (SNS), a provider of post production
storage systems for video and audio, announced it will showcase the newest
extension to its product family, the Ellipse Enterprise Fibre Channel HBA for
Mac OS X, on booth SL8208 at NAB 2008.
The new Ellipse Enterprise Fibre Channel HBA (Host Bus Adapter) delivers an
industry breakthrough: the ability for Mac servers and workstations to reliably
use the high-availability multipathing features in enterprise-class storage
systems from IBM, EMC, LSI, SUN, and others.
“Many storage professionals have learned that getting Mac servers to integrate
and work flawlessly with their enterprise SAN is a challenging task.
Significant obstacles have always existed when presenting storage from EMC, IBM
and other first tier providers to a Mac,” stated Jeremy Strootman, Director of
Worldwide Sales at Studio Network Solutions. “The Ellipse Enterprise HBA
addresses the goal of reliably integrating Mac systems into a large
corporation’s storage strategy.”
Along with Ellipse Enterprise, SNS will also be showcasing Evo, the
revolutionary shared storage solution that includes 10Gb iSCSI SAN & NAS,
multiple 4Gb Fibre Channel and the ability to bridge existing storage all in
one box. There will also be demonstrations of The Postmap Operating
Environment, the companies’ established search and asset management software
for creative workgroups that has complete integration with SANmp.
Visitors to the SNS booth will be able to have hands-on demonstrations of the
entire SNS product line, as well as meet with Ted Richardson, SNS’s Director of
Product Management and Jeremy Strootman, Director of Worldwide Sales.
