As a leading research and development company in the video compression market, ATEME continues to deliver products that support the latest in advanced compression technology, including High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) and Ultra High Definition Television (UHDTV) 4K.

Kyrion CM5000 - ATEME's high performance encoder for contribution and distribution links is based on the company's unique FPGA design, permitting complete software upgradeability from SD to HD or 4:2:0 to 4:2:2.

  • Gen5 firmware provides a new video encoding core algorithm that revolutionizes video quality at a very low latency, thus ensuring a new level of experience even with critical delay applications such as full duplex interviews and sports coverage.

  • Operational optimization through new features such as audio activity, VU-meters on the front panel confidence monitor and a Graphical User Interface that provides operators with the ability to easily monitor audio signal activity.
  • Seamless Channel Insertion (SCI), a solution for video multiplex operators that is based on the open-standard/non-proprietary "Piecewise CBR" control rate mode, allowing broadcast contribution network operators to smoothly insert or remove channels in a multi-program transport system.
  • Zixi technology integration provides not only reliable video transmissions over the "Open Internet" but also dynamically manages the video bitrate according to network conditions.

Michel Artières, CEO, ATEME, said: "To prepare our clients for the next generation of compression technology, we strive to ensure that our equipment is future-proof, reliable and incorporates the most recent innovations in the industry. We are proud to be able to demonstrate the results of our research and development efforts at this global event."
