Nimbra 400 now features multi-channel HEVC 4:2:2 video encoding/decoding, achieving video quality and bandwidth efficiency making it suitable for live event contributions over networks.
The Net Insight Nimbra 400 platform now features multi-channel HEVC 4:2:2 video encoding and decoding. Developed for video quality and bandwidth efficiency, this new capability makes the Nimbra 400 suitable for live event contributions over managed and unmanaged networks.
Broadcasters and production companies can now use the Nimbra 400 to deliver immersive video experiences over affordable IP links from nearly any global location. Using hardware acceleration, the Nimbra 400 supports up to four high-quality HEVC 4:2:2 video services through advanced technology, ensuring premium, low-latency video feeds from remote locations to production centres.
With efficient HEVC compression, the Nimbra 400 can significantly reduce bandwidth costs per channel, allowing opportunities for broadcasters to increase their camera views, deliver more immersive programming and cover events that previously were not economically viable. The result is new revenue streams and a more engaging viewing experience for audiences.
The Nimbra 400 1RU appliance is designed for direct integration with Net Insight’s Nimbra Edge and Connect iT media transport platforms, setting up robust video connections from the network edge. Video services can be delivered over unmanaged IP networks, and the entire operation can be managed from a central location at any venue, making live event production flexible and reliable.
