Electrosonic to Demonstrate the ES7100 3G-SDI and HD-SDI Over IP Encoder at IBC

Electrosonic, an established leader in image networking, will demonstrate the ES7100 encoder for 3G-SDI and HD-SDI streaming over IP networks at IBC booth 3.B19.

The ES7100 provides an unmatched combination of bit rate efficiency, low latency and high image quality. The ES7100 is ideal for image quality critical applications in broadcast contribution, studio to studio exchange, live event coverage and interactive broadcasts. The ES7100 features 10bit 4:2:2 encoding and video compression from 6 to 150Mbs.

The ES7100 utilizes Electrosonic's PURE3 compression codec that exceeds many of the performance characteristics of MPEG and JPEG2000 encoders. PURE3 is designed specifically for network transmission and provides exceptional resilience to network errors without the need for forward error correction and provides a constant latency of only 70ms end to end. Image fidelity is further protected by PURE3's constant image quality through multiple generations.

The ES7100 can be upgraded from SDI to HD-SDI to 3G-SDI as your contribution requirements grow. All popular HD formats are supported including 720p, 1080i and 1080p. The ES7100 can be set on-the-fly for encode or decode operation and provides extensive bit rate management including CBR and PBR bandwidth monitoring for unsurpassed network performance. Its light, portable chassis and low power consumption are ideal for mobile applications.

In addition to the ES7100, Electrosonic's IBC booth staff will demonstrate Electrosonic's VISIONetwork video & graphics distribution over IP networks with virtual switching. This remarkable new technology replaces RGB and video matrix switchers with a single easy-to-use, expandable solution.

Electrosonic's line of HD video players will also be on display at IBC. The ES9600 two channel JPEG2000 video player provides up to 2k resolution playback at 250Mbs and 4:4:4 color space. The ES9600 utilizes the same image playback technology as Digital Cinema to provide stunning images on large projection screens and displays.
