VidTrans 2015: Artel To Showcase DigiLink Media Transport Platform

At VidTrans 2015, booth 14, Artel Video Systems will showcase the features and capabilities of its DigiLink Media Transport platform, including JPEG 2000 compression, video and Ethernet over IP.

“We continue to see tremendous growth in the broadcast-quality media transport market. Much of that growth is in transport over IP and optical networks, which in many cases requires light, low-latency compression prior to transport, such as JPEG 2000,” said Richard Dellacanonica, president of Artel Video Systems. “At VidTrans 2015, Artel will showcase a complete set of cost-effective, reliable solutions for transporting HD-SDI, SD-SDI, and DVB-ASI over IP networks including our award-winning JPEG 2000 solution.”

Artel will also participate in the Interoperability Plug Fest demonstration at VidTrans 2015. The demonstration is designed to show how multiple vendors, including Artel, are in compliance with VSF Technical Recommendations VSF_TR-1 (Transport of JPEG2000 broadcast profile video in MPEG-2 TS over IP). Recently honored with a Technology and Engineering Emmy Award by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) for its work on the Standardization and Productization of JPEG 2000 (J2K) Interoperability, the company’s JPEG 2000 solution is designed to simplify and lower the costs associated with transporting broadcast-quality media across terrestrial networks.

DigiLink is currently deployed by major telcos and broadcasters around the world. Renowned for its reliability, high performance, and ease of use, DigiLink is available off the shelf for immediate delivery, and includes a five-year warranty, free firmware upgrades, and free lifetime technical support, eliminating the need for ongoing service-level agreement costs.
