Miranda, NVISION, Pro-Bel and Utah Scientific collaborate on interconnection standard

Miranda
Technologies has collaborated with NVISION, Pro-Bel and Utah Scientific to
create a new interconnection standard between multi-viewers and routers.
The new
MV-LiNK standard allows Miranda
s Kaleido-X multi-viewer to be
tightly integrated with an upstream router from NVISION, Pro-Bel or Utah
Scientific. A single 3Gpbs capable MV-LiNK provides interconnection for up to
eight HD/SD signals.
The MV-LiNK standard is ideal for
building the very largest combined multi-image and routing systems, which offer
the highest level of image quality, layout flexibility and robustness
, says Louis Caron, Multi-image Product Manager at Miranda.
By offering an open standard
between multi-viewers and routers, we
re making it easier for
broadcasters to select the optimum routing and multi-image combination, as they
move to larger, more centralized monitoring systems.
The
MV-LiNK allows the Kaleido-X multi-viewer to offer On-screen Mouse router
control, as well as dynamically updated UMDs using the router source labels.
Other benefits include reduced cabling and easier installation, and a lower
overall system cost due to streamlined multi-image/routing hardware, with removal
of BNC equalizers, cable drivers and reclockers.
The
Kaleido-X multi-room, multi-image display processor offers the highest picture
definition across all image sizes for the most critical monitoring
applications. The processor also offers unsurpassed signal flexibility, with
the ability to display signals freely across multiple displays, without
restrictions on signal position, repetition, format or aspect ratio.
A range
of expansion options allow the system to be scaled all the way up to 1152 video
inputs and 128 multi-image display outputs, without impacting the signal
flexibility or quality. The processor also offers exceptional resiliency, with
an Auto-recovery capability that automatically configures new cards loaded in
the frame from other installed cards.
