Riedel Presents MediorNet Conversion Features and MediaCards

New Software-based Conversion Features

 To expand the possibilities of Mediornet's software based processing features, Riedel presents new conversion functionality. The new feature offers signal conversion in broadcast quality. MediorNet now also features integrated timecode display, timecode generation and timecode distribution. The VITC is transported via the Blackburst sync signal. To provide detailed signalisiation options, the timecode is available as an On-Screen-Display. To compensate potential runtime delays, the MediorNet timecode features integrated Delay/Runtime Compensation.

 The new MediorNet On-Screen-Display options expand the system's usability and monitoring features. The display shows connection status, distribution status, signal status, timecode, destination or source of the video inputs and outputs.

New MN-HD6IO Universal Video Card

 The new MediorNet MN-HD6IO HD/SDI video card offers two inputs, two outputs and two universal connectors that can be defined by the user as inputs or outputs. This expands the connectivity of a MediorNet mainframe by 50%. At the same time the card offers a saving of 30% in costs.

 The MediorNet MN-HD6IO video card is available in two different versions. While the standard version offers all software based conversion and processing features that are already available for the MediorNet system, the enhanced version of the MN-HD6IO card provides additional on-board signal conversion. Standard cards can be easily upgraded to the enhanced version.

New Road-Proof MediorNet Link Cards

 To provide an even more road-proof interface for the MediorNet WDM and CWDM LINK cards, all new LNK cards are also available with Neutrik opticalCON connectors on board. These connectors offer an automatic sealing cover for maximum dust and dirt protection (IP65) and a push-pull locking mechanism for safe connection. Furthermore, this eliminates the need for an external patchbay.

New MN-ETH6 Ethernet Card

 To allow for more Ethernet connectivity Riedel presents the new MediorNet Ethernet card. The MN-ETH6 offers six 1Gbit Ethernet ports for transparent tunneling data within MediorNet. The bandwidth of each port is freely scalable to provide the best possible fiber utilization within the MediorNet network. The Ethernet card allows for fiber and copper connections to provide the maximum flexibility.
