Net Insight launches Nimbra 400 series

Reaffirming its position in professional internet media transport

Stockholm, Sweden – Net Insight today announces the next generation of its Emmy® Award-winning internet media transport offering, the Nimbra 400 series. The new product line is a response to the increasing demand for live media internet transport for premium applications.

Professional media transport over the internet has transformed the broadcast industry over the past decade, enabling broadcasters and service providers to reach new locations faster and more cost-efficiently than ever before. This rapidly growing market segment, driven by technology shifts such as increased use of cloud resources, as well as regulatory shifts such as refarming of the C-band, is now estimated by IABM to 66 MUSD annually with a yearly growth of 22%.

With internet transport expanding further into premium live media workflows, broadcasters now start to blend fiber and internet in the same workflows. This puts increased expectations on both reliability and seamless cross-platform management.

Nimbra 400 has been designed from the ground up to meet these new challenging performance and quality requirements, leveraging Net Insight's more than 20 years of experience in building high-end media equipment. At the same time, with its flexible x86 COTS building practices and software-based architecture the Nimbra 400 series give users true flexibility.

"When we launched our internet transport products back in 2012, we had a clear software-first mindset, which has allowed us to bring new features to market at an incredible pace," says Love Thyresson, Head of Internet Media Transport at Net Insight. "I'm proud to say, the Nimbra 400 series is the perfect balance of high-end media gear and a flexible virtualized platform."

The Nimbra 400 series updates and expands on Net Insight's offering within premium internet transport and effectively replaces the existing Nimbra VA series of products. It will be showcased at Net Insight's booth 1.B40 at IBC2019 on 13-17 September and is available now for worldwide distribution.

Net Insight launches new virtual media and network functions for remote production and IP media delivery

Stockholm, Sweden – As part of the continuous execution of the company's virtualization strategy, Net Insight announces the launch of new Nimbra Virtual Functions. The new Nimbra Virtual Functions reduce connectivity costs and media networking complexity for remote production and IP media delivery.

The production of live media is moving towards the centralization of resources and talent. Meanwhile, the use of media processing in the cloud and Internet for content delivery is growing rapidly. As the ongoing transformation of content production and delivery is being built with IT, cloud and Internet technologies, virtual media and network functions (VNFs) have come to prominence.

VNFs are software applications that run on standard hardware platforms. This allows for the addition of new VNFs to an existing network without installing or replacing existing hardware. New functionalities can be added and upgraded, without the costs of site visits and without CAPEX investments in new hardware. This deployment model has emerged as one of the key tools in addressing the challenges of the ongoing production and delivery transformation. By using VNFs, media companies can quickly adapt to changing market requirements and customer needs.

"Net Insight is at the vanguard for the adoption of technologies that reduce the cost and time-to-market for live media delivery," says Ulrik Rohne, VP Media Networks at Net Insight. "The addition of this latest Nimbra Virtual Function update will offer new and existing customers the industry's most adaptable remote production and live media delivery platform."

This Nimbra Virtual Function update includes parallel JPEG 2000 encoding and decoding, MPEG H.264, ASI to ST 2022 IP adaption, as well as Ethernet switching application packages. These standards-based virtual functions have been balanced to retain high image quality, eliminate network data loss and reduce the cost of content transmission. This latest set of virtual functions are compatible with the Nimbra 600's general and special purpose resources.

"The release of this new set of Nimbra Virtual Functions offers a larger spectrum of our customers even more options to seamlessly transition to remote production," says Damien Nagle, Strategic Product Manager at Net Insight.

Come visit Net Insight's booth 1.B40 at IBC2019 on 13-17 September, to learn more about the new Nimbra Virtual Functions.
