LAWO V__matrix
IP broadcast video core infrastructure

Description

V__matrix is the first of its kind. Free from the restrictions of legacy hardware platforms it offers a completely virtualized real-time routing and processing infrastructure. Instead of connecting single purpose modular products in elaborate production chains the V__matrix is based on the data center principles of flexibility, fabric computing and COTS economics and makes these available to any live production broadcast environment. Whether an OB truck, a TV studio or a broadcast operation center, V__matrix creates a fully virtualized facility infrastructure.

Product highlights:

  • Software-defined IP core routing, processing & multi-viewing platform
  • World’s 1st virtualized broadcast ecosystem with software defined functionality
  • Unified routing, processing & multi-viewing core infrastructure
  • Support for source-timed and destination-timed deterministic frame-accurate clean switching
  • Distributed processing over multiple networked processing blades
  • Seamless SDI to IP migration utilizing one unified control system (VSM)
  • High-density IP conversion for legacy SDI equipment (up to 160 I/O in 3RU)
  • Significantly reduced footprint, power consumption, spare pooling and cabling
  • Sophisticated multi-layer redundancy for signal, network, control and hardware layers
  • Designed for both decentralized operation and data center style centralized operation
  • Fully based on open standards in-line with the AIMS roadmap
