MD8000-10G Media over IP Transport Platform
The MD8000 media over IP transport system delivers high-performance, professional media signals across IP networks. As the workhorse of the MD Series, the MD8000 packetizes and adapts media signals from their native formats (SDI, compressed, and asynchronous) into IP packet flows that can be routed through high-speed networks.
The MD8000 suite of products is an adaptable, affordable and flexible solution for transporting uncompressed or compressed 4K, 3G, HD-SDI, SD-SDI and DVB-ASI video protocols. It readily adapts to a wide range of core network technologies, which make the MD8000 system the idea deal choice for current and future media networking needs of broadcasters, telecoms and enterprises.
It also offers guaranteed Quality of Service due to its robust redundancy with a hitless operation, low-latency, bi-directional operation, and ability to operate with a variety of compression schemes.
Media Links is helping to bridge the gap between traditional broadcast and IP transport of content. Operating as a pioneer at the forefront of technological innovations and advancements, Media Links provides a standards-based product suite that enables the adoption of media signals to telecom standards.
