Rohde & Schwarz offers UHD products for post-production, ingest, storage, playout, encoding, multiplexing and transmission applications, and will exhibit all these solutions, together with its collaborating partner Trigital, at stand 6D14 in Hall 6 of Ifema (Madrid). .
Rohde & Schwarz offers a full range of solutions that help the broadcast industry adapt to the new 4K high-resolution standard and will showcase its expertise in this field at the Broadcast Fair 2014 to be held from May 20-22 at the Ifema (Madrid).
Visitors will get an up-close look at the VENICE production and ingest server, which offers significant benefits to broadcasters, particularly in live TV studio environments.
The VENICE server opens up new possibilities for Avid outgest and studio playout with resolutions up to 4K. Reduced processing times between ingest and playout, along with greater redundancy, increase the flexibility and efficiency of the video production workflow.
The CLIPSTER mastering station will showcase its extensive DCI toolset at the Broadcast including: subtitling, high frame rate stereoscopy and Dolby Atmos. Additionally Clipster is fully compatible with the innovative AS-02 and FMI standards in resolutions up to 4K.
Rohde & Schwarz DVS will also present its new SpycerBox Cell solution whose scalable and modular design allows performance to work in formats up to 8K. SpycerBox Cell offers unprecedented performance in such a small density.
It measures just 1U and has 30 internal drives that can even be hot-swapped even when working in playback operations like TV studios or post production.
It has a redundant architecture and offers guaranteed speeds to work with compressed or uncompressed files in formats SD, HD, 2K, 4K, 8K and beyond. Rohde & Schwarz will also be present with its R&S AVHE100 headend, a system already fully compatible with the new HEVC (H.265) encoding standard for 4K and HD. Rohde & Schwarz's test and measurement equipment also already supports the development and production of 4K consumer electronics equipment. The R&S BTC broadcast measurement center offers users an all-in-one measurement environment for virtually all audio, video and multimedia applications. The system also analyzes audio/video in real time. Its modular and scalable concept allows the system to be adapted to the requirements of each user. It even supports the transmission of 4K signals to a set-top box or TV.
The R&S VTC, R&S VTE and R&S VTS video testers enable comprehensive testing of consumer equipment with video processing capabilities.
By supporting both analysis and generation of HDMI signals with resolution up to 4K, users can measure both the interface (including the most important control protocols and certification) and the complete system under test.
The new families of R&S THV9, R&S TMV9 and R&S THR9 transmitters from Rohde & Schwarz combine maximum energy efficiency (up to 42%) and power density with innovative technologies, such as MultiTX, which allows multiple transmitters to be housed in the same rack.
