Need To Increase Your Full Motion Video Capacity??
One of the most common usage dilemmas experienced by existing full motion distance education networks these days is that they quickly run short of video capacity. Even after careful initial planning for ITFS, microwave, and fiber distribution systems, most consortiums find that the acceptance of these technologies is so great that the available channels are quickly exhausted. Often, leasing an additional fiber channel or adding more microwave/ITFS channels would be a budget breaker.
Fortunately, there is an inexpensive alternative. Evans Associates has recently evaluated the latest in full motion frame multiplexing. Video multiplexers can double (or, for some applications, quadruple) your video capacity with only minimal loss in picture resolution. This is done by alternating the frames of the two logical channels as they are transmitted over the single fiber or microwave channel. New estimating techniques have made the new equipment significantly less expensive, while enhancing the picture quality.
Our evaluation of the newest frame multiplex technologies have shown that the majority of the units currently on the market provide excellent results. The
result to your network could be increased video capacity at a fraction of the cost of leasing or constructing another channel. Moreover, the costs are one-time equipment and setup charges, not continual lease payments. If you think your network could benefit from this technology, let Evans Associates help you implement this attractive alternative.
