Media Links IP media gateway now supports JPEG-XS

MDP3020 IP Media Gateway

Media Links has announced that its MDP3020 IP Media Gateway now includes support for JPEG-XS compression.

JPEG-XS (extra speed, extra small) achieves high quality compression ratios of up to 10:1 and beyond. This makes it ideal, Media Link notes, for the edge of the IP network where bandwidth is typically limited and where the transport of uncompressed high quality video is not feasible.

JPEG-XS (ISO/IEC 21122) provides visually lossless quality with sub-millisecond (<1 video frame) delay and is especially designed for latency-critical applications such as live remote event production over wide area networks.

According to Media Links, the MDP 3000 Series of edge devices is an ideal media over IP solution for the applications including contribution quality broadcast feeds; studio to studio media exchange; content screening & quality control monitoring; distribution delivery to DTT/satellite/cable and IPTV head-ends; and remote production and outside broadcast environments.

As an integral component of the Media Links’ common LAN/WAN architecture solution portfolio, the MDP3000 Series provides video, audio and data transport to/from the fringes of the IP network. In addition to JPEG-XS, this suite of IP Media Gateways also supports TICO and JPEG-2000 compression.
