Next-Generation System Enables Delivery
of Both High-Quality HD or SD Video Over IP for a Wide Range
of Broadcasting Applications
Streambox announced the release of its next-generation SBT3-9300
video transport system for delivery of broadcast-quality video
and audio over IP-based networks. With the ability to capture
and encode stunning, full-motion and full-frame 1080i/720p
HD content in addition to SD, the SBT3-9300 provides a flexible
and cost-effective path to full HD transmissions for many
types of organizations including broadcasters, production
companies, and houses of worship.
"In today's economy, the competitive pressure to migrate
to HD transmissions is often at odds with budgetary realities
for many broadcasting organizations," said Bob Hildeman,
chairman and CEO of Streambox. "The SBT3-9300 is a true
hybrid solution which offers built-in HD capabilities for
the price of an SD system. Broadcasters can take advantage
of low-cost, low-bandwidth IP networks for transporting SD
video now — and when the rest of the facility is ready
later to convert to HD, the SBT3-9300 will be ready to go
without requiring a costly upgrade."
The 1RU SBT3-9300 is designed to meet the exacting performance
and quality demands of any organization that requires professional-level
capabilities for transporting high-quality video over IP.
For instance, the system gives broadcasters an easy-to-use
and cost-effective solution for live or file-based newsgathering
over low-data-rate IP networks.
Film and post-production studios are using the SBT3-9300 to
transmit high-quality live HD and SD video as a way to accelerate
and enhance editing processes such as color correction. Also,
churches with large, multicampus congregations are embracing
the technology as a cost-effective and reliable means of streaming
live or recorded worship services to each of their locations.
Based on the award-winning Streambox ACT-L3 codec, the SBT3-9300
offers superior compression and networking features such as
robust forward error correction, burst error protection, and
bandwidth shaping technologies to mitigate packet loss, network
jitter, and buffering.
The system supports full 1080i video as well as HD/SD digital
and analog input and output formats, transmitting at data
rates ranging from 512 Kbps to 30 Mbps for HD video and 64
Kbps to 15 Mbps for SD. The SBT3-9300's exclusive Web interface
enables operators to control the system from any computer
connected to the network.
