TVU G-Link encoder adapted to support 8K point-to-point live IP transmission;

Introducing TVU RPS Link Encoder for multi-camera, synchronized remote

production over LTE/5G networks

SHANGHAI, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TVU

Networks(https://www.tvunetworks.com/), the market and technology leader in

cloud and IP-based live video solutions, has announced two significant

developments with the company's transmission technology that has been

introduced at the 2022 NAB. TVU has adapted its TVU

G-Link(https://www.tvunetworks.com/products/tvu-g-link/) platform to now

support low-latency, 8K IP video transmission over commodity internet

connections, and new to the TVU Remote Production

System(https://www.tvunetworks.com/products/tvu-remote-production-system-rps/)

(RPS) family is the TVU RPS Link Encoder which allows multi-channel REMI

production over cellular networks.

TVU G-Link is a powerful, point-to-point IP video transmission platform

designed to provide high-quality, low-latency video over commodity internet

connections. G-Link utilizes TVU's renowned IS+ protocol, link aggregation, and

HEVC VBR encoding to produce a stable transmission - even under harsh network

conditions. While the TVU G-Link family already supports up to 10-bit 4k

50/60p, TVU has been able to quickly adapt the platform to support 8k 50/60p

transmission. 8k support is currently a technology demonstration, but TVU

expects to productize the solution in the future.

"The flexibility of our IS+ protocol and modular design that forms the basis of

TVU G-Link made it easy to adapt the platform to support 8K encoding/decoding,"

said Paul Shen, CEO, TVU Networks. "We are starting to see increased demand for

8K acquisition over IP for applications such as sports and event broadcasts.

We're very encouraged about the global need for this kind of enabling

technology."

The TVU G-Link platform uses the HEVC codec to encode at bit rates up to

300Mb/s with sub-second latency over the commercial internet. It also features

VBR encoding for transmission stability on variable bandwidth connections and

can transmit an 8K signal at as low as 60Mb/s.

Other TVU G-Link features:

-Encoder and decoder units are packaged in a 1RU chassis and feature 4 x

12G-SDI inputs (square division and 2SI mode) on the encoder and 4 x 12G-SDI

outputs on the decoder with up to 16-channels of embedded audio

-When combined with TVU's Rack Router, it can aggregate up to six 5G modems

along with ethernet, WiFi, satellite or more to provide bandwidth in remote

locations

-In addition to 8K transmission, the unit can also be adapted to multi-camera,

synchronized 4K50/60p REMI production, providing a powerful solution for 4K

sports, events or remote studio workflows.

Another multi-camera transmission breakthrough from TVU Networks is the TVU RPS

line of multi-channel REMI solutions. Being introduced at NAB is the TVU RPS

Link Encoder. The TVU RPS Link Encoder provides multi-camera, synchronized

remote production capability (up to 1080p) using IS+ aggregating up to 12

connections, including embedded 5G/LTE modems, WIFI, ethernet or satellite.

Ideal for use in remote locations where reliable wired IP connections are

unavailable or inadequate, the TVU RPS Link Encoder features a 2RU chassis

configurable for up to six 5G modems with external, high-gain antennas. RPS

Link Encoder comes in both four-channel and six-channel models with up to two

channels of return video.

The TVU RPS Link Encoder is compatible with the existing TVU RPS hardware

decoder as well as TVU's complete Cloud Production ecosystem, including the TVU

Producer live production platform, TVU Partyline video collaboration tool and

TVU Command Center for centralized signal monitoring. All RPS transmissions in

the Cloud can be controlled and monitored using its built-in encoder web

interface or via the TVU Command Center.

Other TVU RPS Link Encoder features include:

-Glass-to-glass latency over commodity internet as low as 500ms and low latency

source preview (200-300ms) for CCU or remote camera operation

-H264 or HEVC encoding up to 15Mb/s per channel (VBR and CBR)

-VLAN tunnel connectivity for connecting IP-based peripherals between the

studio and the field, including talkback systems, CCU, Switcher Tally, and

remote camera

-H264 or HEVC encoding up to 15Mb/s per channel (VBR and CBR)
