P.Link: Dual UHD/8HD video encoder and decoder

In video production and contribution, PERSEUS’ processing power advantage enables up to 70% cost savings per channel, while at the same time unlocking the promises of low-latency visually lossless UHD sports contribution, HDR, remote production, IP production and software-defined workflows, including virtualisation and cloud. Typical use cases include:

80 Mbps

for visually lossless HD contribution with AI enabled.

130 Mbps

for visually lossless intra-only UHDp60 contribution with AI enabled.

400 Mbps

for 2 visually lossless UHD feeds in standard mode within a single low-cost appliance.

All of the above, with convenient software encoding and decoding ready to deploy in virtualised and cloud environments.

HIGH DENSITY & FLEXIBLE

Power of software allows high density HD & UHD bi-directional flexibility, lowering cost per channel significantly by minimizing CAPEX & OPEX driving down Total Cost of Ownership.

BANDWIDTH MATTERS

Visually lossless, intra 4K/UHD signals can be delivered at 130-200 Mbps, and multiple 4K/UHD and HD services can be delivered by a single 1 Gbps link.

DYNAMIC MULTIPLEX

Dynamic Multiplex lets the encoder adjust the bandwidth between services according to complexity and priority, in real time, allowing more services or higher quality for a given link.

Video case study: P.Link powers Eutelsat’s 4K/UHD at Euro 2016

Eutelsat chose V-Nova’s PERSEUS™ video compression for the contribution of the visually lossless, 4K/UHD international feeds of the UEFA Euro Championship 2016.
The deployed system was used from the quarter finals onwards to enable RAI to offer live coverage of the final stages of the football tournament in Ultra HD/4K to all Italian homes that can receive RAI’s Ultra HD (UHD) channel on the Tivùsat platform.

Live 4K broadcast requires a high-quality communication infrastructure, which plays to Eutelsat’s core strengths. By working with V-Nova, we will be able to add pristine 4K/UHD feeds alongside the all-important HD feeds.
