FlashNet 6.4 can store index information on the Cartridge Memory chip<br />
New products on d<strong>is</strong>play include<br />
the Makito family of HD H.264<br />
encoders and decoders. The new<br />
Makito encoder offers efficient and<br />
affordable d<strong>is</strong>tribution, capture, and<br />
rebroadcast of HD video. Recently<br />
upgraded to rev<strong>is</strong>ion 1.5, the<br />
Makito now supports constant bit<br />
rate (CBR) encoding and, optionally,<br />
realtime metadata capabilities.<br />
Haiv<strong>is</strong>ion’s Makito H.264<br />
decoder offers extreme low-latency<br />
decoding available with less than<br />
70ms of latency at video resolutions<br />

SGL will introduce an innovative<br />
system for writing data to the LTO<br />
Program (HP, IBM & Quantum)<br />
Linear Tape File System (LTFS).<br />
Th<strong>is</strong> real world working demonstration<br />
will illustrate how FlashNet<br />
<strong>is</strong> breaking new ground in archive<br />
technology. Specific to the LTO-5<br />
tape format and all future LTO tape<br />
formats, LTFS enables true interoperability<br />
between what were d<strong>is</strong>parate<br />
systems. As well as for the broadcast<br />
sector th<strong>is</strong> approach also has wide<br />
implications for post production and<br />
acqu<strong>is</strong>ition workflows where content<br />
can be acquired to d<strong>is</strong>k on location,<br />
dragged and dropped to data tape<br />
and transported back to a facility.<br />
N2821<br />
Furnace 6.0 has an enhanced<br />
workflow and InStream player<br />
of up to 1080p60. When paired<br />
with the Makito HD H.264<br />
encoder, th<strong>is</strong> system provides efficient<br />
delivery of HD video via<br />
HD-SDI or HDMI output.<br />

NAB debut<br />
for Norwia<br />
By Fergal Ringrose<br />
Norwegian NAB newcomer Norwia<br />
will introduce the miniHUB optical<br />
video d<strong>is</strong>tribution platform and the<br />
OC-4B-SDI optical video d<strong>is</strong>tribution<br />
card. The miniHUB platform<br />
1RU chass<strong>is</strong> features a ‘Click & Go’<br />
card locking system, free controller<br />
card and a quality engineered next<br />
generation frame.<br />
The OC-4B-SDI <strong>is</strong> a 3G-SDI<br />
optical video d<strong>is</strong>tributions card that<br />
can be populated with Norwia<br />
SFP’s from one to four channels as<br />
the user needs expand. The 1 card<br />
can be used for transmit, receive or<br />
both. Th<strong>is</strong> flexibility <strong>is</strong> driven by<br />
Norwia’s new Auto SFP technology<br />
and tightly integrated with<br />
Norwia’s Flexi I/O technology to<br />
give greater flexibility with the BNC<br />
signal direction.<br />
All of these features give the<br />
customer a building block tool<br />
that provides Optical video links,<br />
Optical d<strong>is</strong>tribution, Optical transponder<br />
and add/drop/pass networks<br />
all on the one card and all at the<br />
user’s d<strong>is</strong>cretion. The company’s<br />
optical d<strong>is</strong>tribution solution can<br />
morph and replaces five or more<br />
different cards that ex<strong>is</strong>t on the market<br />
today, according to Norwia.<br />
