About Media Links IP Transport
The all new Xscend and MD8000 media transport platforms deliver high-performance, broadcast / professional media signals across a range of IP network fabrics. Each solution converts media signals from their native formats (SDI, compressed, and asynchronous) into IP packet flows that can be routed across both managed and unmanaged high-speed networks*. Native IP signals, such as SMPTE ST 2110, can also benefit from the robustness and reliability provided by Media Links supported networks.
- Carrier-grade design
- Hitless protection switching
- Deterministic signal routing
- Reconfigurable interface modules
- A proven range of Line and Trunk card options
- On-board switching up to 100Mb/s
- Standards enabled
