At KPSP-TV’s new digital facility (designed by Digital System Technology, located in Irwindale, Calif.), the FastBreak system controls two Grass Valley Profile XP Media Platform servers, representing 12 individual channels, in a shared Media Area Network configuration. It has two media prep stations for tape ingest and also features an Intelli-Sat Broadcast Recording Manager for intake and delivery of network material from satellite, including CBS' NFL football package.
