NXAMP3601SSDI

A choice of eight or 16 internal, hot-swappable SSD storage media drives and cutting-edge IT connectivity comes standard on the NEXIO AMP SSD server. Ethernet and FTP connectivity support network devices such as shared folders and near-line storage systems. Import and export of data to external devices is facilitated through USB 2.0 and FireWire® ports, and a 5.25-inch drive bay accepts supported third-party devices, such as a Panasonic® P2 deck.

NEXIO AMP SSD performance can be enhanced with a number of software options. These media applications include NEXIO AMP ChannelView™, which integrates multiviewer I/O monitoring directly onto the server, and NEXIO AMP PRX Encoder™, which enables simultaneous proxy-file generation during high resolution video ingest. Other task-specific applications are also available. The NEXIO AMP SSD server can be upgraded to the NEXIO AMP NXAMP3601HDX advanced media platform. It can then be attached to NEXIO shared storage, enabling a shared storage system with more than 450 channels.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE TECHNOLOGY

MediaCore™ Engine
MediaCore™ is a high-performance, 64-bit software engine that controls all low levell NEXIO AMP SSD functionality. This multistream module manages real-time transactions and system status updates, as well as RAIDsoft, the NEXIO software RAID and disk storage management system. MediaCore employs task-specific, multicore CPU/GPU/FPGA processing to effortlessly handle all baseband video and file I/O. The module can be controlled via external or internal interfaces.

STANDARD APPLICATIONS

NXOS
The standard user interface for the NEXIO AMP SSD mainframe is NXOS. This intuitive operating system allows users to control ingest and playout on all channels — including off-speed play, trimming and sub-clip creation.

NXOS includes the versatile NEXIO MediaBase feature. As the NEXIO content management system, MediaBase updates the NEXIO AMP SSD clip list in real time whenever changes are made to the content residing in storage.

NEXIO FTP Server™ and FTP Client™
The NEXIO FTP Server™ application enables the movement of material from server domain to server domain, and import and export of material outside of the NEXIO server environment via Ethernet. NEXIO FTP Client™ facilitates MXF file exchange and simplified transfer of Panasonic P2 (including AVC-Intra import) and Sony® XDCAM/XDCAM HD files (including access to multiple XDCAM decks via Ethernet).

NEXIO PlayList™
NEXIO PlayList™ is an event-sequencing application that can be used for play-toair operations such as commercial insertion, time-of-day events, moving backgrounds and more.

Performance Enhancement
Add any of the following optional applications to boost the performance of your NEXIO AMP SSD advanced media platform:

NEXIO AMP ChannelView
NEXIO AMP ChannelView integrates software-based multiviewer I/O monitoring directly into the NEXIO AMP server, allowing users to easily and cost effectively monitor the server’s input and output ports on an attached VGA monitor. Choose from preconfigured layouts that correspond to the different channel configurations available with NEXIO AMP SSD, or customize layouts using the included Layout Designer software to match your specific I/O configuration.

NEXIO AMP PRX Encoder
NEXIO AMP PRX Encoder enables the NEXIO AMP SSD server to automatically generate low-resolution H.264 proxy files simultaneously with the baseband ingest of up to two channels of high-resolution video. These proxy files are saved to the NEXIO Browse Server™ storage array, where they are available for viewing and editing on a low-resolution NEXIO Browse network.

NEXIO Remote™
Extend control of server channels using NEXIO Remote™, an application that provides control of up to six NEXIO AMP channels over a standard LAN connection. The application also supports NEXIO ClipSync and Delay.

NEXIO Navigator™
Identify potential problems before they impact your on-air product with NEXIO Navigator™, an SNMP-based application that supports remote monitoring and diagnostics of NEXIO servers and network-attached devices.

NEXIO Delay™
Use NEXIO Delay™ to apply a delay to your air channel for safety in live-to-air transmissions, or for time zone-specific playback delay.

NEXIO ClipSync™
Use NEXIO ClipSync™ to play two clips in sync for key-plus-fill and similar applications when the two elements exist as separate clips.
