Dejero/ Releases New Compact LIVE+ Broadcast Server


[SatNews] Broadcast Server supports two live feeds simultaneously from different LIVE+ transmitters and outputs real-time genlocked HD or SD video that feeds into the playout workflow.

Dejero today announced the launch of an all-new version of its rack-mounted Dejero LIVE+ Broadcast Server in a compact, 1U form factor. The new LIVE+ Broadcast Server includes dual-redundant power supplies and RAID hard drives designed for increased broadcast reliability when receiving video transmissions from field-based transmission devices including the LIVE+ 20/20 Transmitter, LIVE+ VSET, LIVE+ Mobile App, and LIVE+ NewsBook.

"The LIVE+ Broadcast Server plays a critical role in the Dejero bonded wireless production chain by receiving video kflow," said Brian Cram, CEO, Dejero. "With the newest version, the server takes up less space in a facility's equipment room or in a mobile production truck where space is even more limited. News crews can save time and money getting live and breaking news on the air by transmitting high-quality video files directly to the LIVE+ Broadcast Server using our patent-pending bonded wireless technology."

The updated 1U LIVE+ Broadcast Server supports two live feeds simultaneously from different LIVE+ transmitters and outputs real-time genlocked HD or SD video that feeds into the playout workflow. In addition to live video, the server can also receive store-and-forward video clips, edited video packages or other files that may be used at the broadcast facility to complete a story. Dual 400W redundant power supplies ensure broadcast continuity if one power supply fails, and they can be hot-swapped while the server is in use. For data redundancy and protection of stored data, the LIVE+ Broadcast Server now includes 2 x 1TB RAID hard drives. In addition, the new server features a quad-core Intel Xeon high-performance processor for all-day, everyday reliability.
