Harris to Provide American Forces Network With a Broadcast Communications
Posted on: Wednesday, 6 February 2008, 12:00 CST
Harris Corporation, a communications and information technology company, has been awarded a contract from broadcast systems integrator Snader and Associates to provide broadcast communications system for the American Forces Network.
Snader and Associates is designing the new broadcast system, which will be installed at the Defense Media Center in Riverside, California, and is expected to be completed in the summer of 2008. Under the agreement, Harris will provide broadcast routing, automation, video servers, core processing and asset management products.
The company claims that system includes the first members of the new Harris Nexio AMP product family - the NX3601HDI media platform with integrated storage and the NX3601HDX media platform for use on a Nexio storage area network. Nexio AMP pairs a high-performance, high-definition/standard-definition (HD/SD) server architecture with content protection.
The company also claims that this new system combines I/O, data pathway and storage redundancy with all the features broadcasters have come to expect in Nexio servers - including integrated software codec support and automatic up/down/cross conversion.
