ATEME Powers TV Azteca 4K-UHD Live Broadcast Chain

TITAN is a virtualized software-based encoder-transcoder designed for cable, DTH, DTT and OTT. This high-density solution delivers the highest video quality at minimum bitrates. ATEME’s “building block” approach provides full flexibility as software modules can be combined as needed: any input/output, any CODEC, any resolution, from an encoder to a video headend in a box. TITAN can run on any commercial off-the-shelf server, in any environment, removing all infrastructure constraints and reducing time-to-market and OPEX.

“Innovation and highest standard of operation are the foundations for driving TV Azteca´s leadership to the next level,” said Pedro Carmona, technology director for TV Azteca. “These two foundations were fulfilled by ATEME: the first one by using a future-proof solution, with a path to next UHD formats, and the second one by having a pure software solution running on COTS hardware, which provides all the flexibility we need.”

Robert Oaxaca, country manager for Mexico at ATEME, said: “Again, this is a new 4K reference in ATEME portfolio, with this project following a number of UHD live transmissions and channels deployed all around the world .ATEME provides proven and flexible solutions for live and file-based workflows, and also the dedicated team of experts to ensure the full integration and the time-to-market.”
