Artel Video Systems
Addresses Networking
A

rtel will showcase an end-toend hybrid IP and fibre-based
network at NAB Show New York. Artel's
exhibit will highlight new products,
features, and functionality while
demonstrating SMPTE-based standards
and interoperability between devices.
The showcase is specifically designed
to address customers' growing
requirements as they migrate from
direct fibre to all-IP or hybrid IP/SDI
networks.
Artel recently acquired core IP switch
technology from the ARG Quarra 1G
and 10G IP Switch family and the
Automatic Repeat Query (ARQ)
product line which serves Reliable
Internet Streaming Transport
(RIST) for video applications.
The ARG Quarra family supports
the SMPTE ST 2110-10 proposed
standard for System Timing and
Definition and ST 2059-2 permitting
interoperable
use
of
IP-based
media equipment with conventional

genlocked SDI equipment. ARG
Quarra switches are designed for
audio/video broadcast, defense and
security, finance, utilities, telecom,
and enterprise IT applications in
which accurate timing and control are
required. At the 2017 NAB Show New
York, Artel will showcase the ARG
Quarra 10000 10-Gbps Ethernet PTP
Switch actively routing video through
Artel's network.

Artel Video Systems'
DigiLink and InfinityLink
Media Transport Platforms

The ARQ IP Streaming product line
is a simple-to-configure solution for
the distribution of high-quality video
over unconditioned IP networks,
including wireless, the Internet, and
satellite. Because the ARQ solution is
scalable in single-stream increments,
broadcasters can quickly add additional
ARQ licenses to deliver multiple UDP
unicast and multicast services.
Artel
offers
standards-based
solutions in the company's modular
InfinityLink and DigiLink media
transport platforms. At the 2017 NAB
Show New York, Artel will
highlight features including
Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) IP
interfaces that enable greater
bandwidth utilisation, and
capabilities including autosensing of broadcast-quality
video formats. Artel's IP-based
solutions include SMPTE ST 20221/2/5/6/7 IP encapsulation and forward
error correction (FEC) algorithms for

flexible configurations that maximise
reliable performance and minimise
latency.
Artel will provide an interactive
demonstration of SMPTE ST 2022-7
Seamless Protection Switching in an
IP network. Attendees will be able to
create "breaks" in video transmissions
between the company's InfinityLink
chassis and witness delivery of
uninterrupted clear video signals.
Artel's FiberLink 3500 Series
transmits 4K/UHD video at up to
60 frames per second one way.
Supporting nearly every type of video,
audio, and data signal, FiberLink
products are perfect for broadcast
or corporate studios, OB vans, pointof-view cameras, rental and staging,
auditoriums, stadiums and theatres,
transportation hubs, distance learning,
and more.

Riedel's MediorNet MultiViewer App
is an all-new virtual multiviewer app
based on the MediorNet MicroN highdensity media distribution hardware
and designed to work within the
MediorNet network. The MediorNet
MultiViewer App leverages the benefits
of a decentralised signal network by
enabling multiviewer hardware to
be placed anywhere it's needed. The
system can take in up to 18 sources
from the network and output up to
four multiviewer screens, and it can be
configured through a convenient dragand drop editor.
