NAB, Booth SU3605

Sandefjord, Norway, 31 March 2014 – Nevion, a leader in transporting media from the camera to the home, brings its next generation Flashlink broadcast products, solutions and applications to NAB 2014, booth SU3605 in Las Vegas, 5-10 April. Next Generation Flashlink is designed to help broadcasters and other industries handle today’s media processing and transport challenges while laying the foundations for the future based on IP.

Solutions from Nevion’s Flashlink family are used extensively in the production and transport of content throughout the world. Embedded into those offerings are decades of real-world experience handling professional quality content in real-time for global live events. Next Generation Flashlink builds on that experience to create easy-to-use and scalable infrastructure that helps broadcasters achieve critical high fiber utilisation needed for larger productions and the option to centralise aspects of production to achieve economies of scale.

"Nevion believes broadcasters will move, over time, to an IP infrastructure for production because it brings substantial advantages in term of time-to-production, cost savings and revenue opportunities,” said Janne T. Morstøl, chief product and development officer, Nevion. “We also recognise that traditional infrastructure will continue to play an important part in the industry for the foreseeable future. Nevion’s Next Generation Flashlink strategy is designed to make the progressive transition to IP as smooth as possible for broadcasters and others, by breaking down the technological boundaries.”

At NAB, attendees can see new Flashlink components including a high-power 2RU modular frame offering high density, compact size and IP-readiness, new multi-channel audio multiplexer, and multi-channel IP encapsulation. All new solutions integrate with the award-winning Flashlink Live Media Networking application and existing products within the Flashlink range.
