Net Insight elevates video quality and bandwidth efficiency with HEVC compression

Stockholm, Sweden – Net Insight unveils that the Nimbra 400 platform, now features multi-channel HEVC 4:2:2 video encoding and decoding. This advancement sets a new standard for video quality and bandwidth efficiency, making the Nimbra 400 the ultimate choice for live event contributions over both managed and unmanaged networks.

The Nimbra 400’s new capabilities ensure the highest quality video is delivered over cost-effective IP links, enabling immersive video experiences from virtually any global location. Ideal for broadcasters and production companies, the Nimbra 400 supports up to four high-quality HEVC 4:2:2 video services through advanced hardware acceleration technology, ensuring premium, low-latency video feeds from remote locations to production centers.

With the highly efficient HEVC compression, the Nimbra 400 offers significant reductions in bandwidth costs per channel. This efficiency allows broadcasters to increase their camera views, delivering more immersive programming, and covering events that were previously economically unviable. The result is new revenue streams and a more engaging viewing experience for audiences.

The Nimbra 400 is designed for seamless integration with Net Insight’s Nimbra Edge and Connect iT media transport platforms, providing robust and high-quality video connections from the network edge. Video services can be delivered over unmanaged IP networks, and the entire operation can be managed from a central location anywhere in the world, ensuring flexibility and reliability for live event production.
