Live production specialist Grass Valley is showing how its tools enable modern and legacy technology to be used in mission-critical live operations.
The ACE-3901-GRID application bridges SDI and software-defined workflows using media eXchange layer (MXL) technology and Grass Valley’s AMPP OS MXL-native architecture.
By enabling media to move between hardware and software-defined resources, it eliminates unnecessary complexity and allows broadcasters to modernise while protecting existing investments, according to Grass Valley.
The company said ACE-3901-GRID is designed for high-density live production and helps create a unified production environment, with infrastructure, processing and control operating together across on-premises, cloud and hybrid deployments.
Lee Buchanan, Vice President (VP) of Networking at Grass Valley, said: “Media organisations want the flexibility of software-defined production without disrupting the infrastructure they rely on every day. ACE-3901-GRID provides that connection, giving customers a practical path to modernise at their own pace.”
