Riedel Communications has announced the launch of MediorNet HorizoN, a new addition to the MediorNet family of video networking and processing devices.
In addition to providing video processing capabilities such as UHD up/down/cross conversion, SDR-HDR conversion, and colour correction, the hybrid processing platform blurs the boundary between SDI-based and SMPTE ST 2110 infrastructures with a dense array of UHD gateways. With its software-based app concept, HorizoN is set to bring next-level flexibility and simplicity to video ecosystems in the broadcast, entertainment, sports, corporate, and government sectors.
HorizoN houses 16 independent and individually configurable processing engines within a single rack unit, facilitating flexible processing while bridging the gap between baseband and IP systems. The platform provides up to 128 SDI - IP gateways, up to 32 channels of SDR-HDR conversion and colour correction, or up to 16 up/down/cross conversions and colour corrections. SFP-based baseband video I/O completes the package.
