Zixi Integrates Into DMG7000 Transport Stream Gateway

Zixi has been integrated in to the new DMG7000 Transport Stream Gateway allowing content providers to transmit content over the open internet with confidence and certainty.

Sencore has also added support for Zixi ZEN Master for the simple configuration, orchestration and monitoring of the devices and appliances that are part of the Zixi Enabled Network, as well as manage the inputs and outputs for hundreds of live videos and Zixi streams at scale.

The DMG 7000 utilizes the latest software-based platform from Sencore to deliver a highly flexible transport stream processor, allowing content providers to bridge the gap between unmanaged and managed networks. Demanded by the industry’s largest content providers, Zixi’s proven, best-of-breed IP distribution coupled with Sencore’s DMG 7000 Transport Stream Gateway allows a secure and reliable low-cost distribution workflow over IP.

The DMG 7000 Transport Stream Gateway's advantage lies in its dynamic software-based design that allows broadcasters to grow and adapt distribution methods quickly as hardware platforms evolve. The DMG 7000 enables bulletproof transport stream distribution over the internet using Zixi to transmit and receive. Its field and headend models can scale from single channel or multichannel applications, while its adaptable design allows it to be deployed on COTS hardware in a variety of form factors.

Zixi's well-proven methods of optimizing IP-networks to deliver live video content in real-time, leveraging a fast, secure and reliable contribution methodology for getting video content over terrestrial means will give DMG 7000 Transport Stream Gateway customers an advantage. Zixi provides a best-in-class resiliency using a combination of content-aware and network adaptive forward error correction, error recovery, congestion avoidance, bonding of multiple transmission paths and dynamic feedback to control encoder rate, all at a minimal latency.

The soon to be released the Sencore MRD 7000 Software-based Receiver Decoder with Zixi integration will provide content providers the agility to downscale for contribution decoding needs for a variety of formats of video codecs. MRD 7000 is the ideal solution to serve as a reference decoder with the ability to decode JPEG 2000, HEVC, H.264 & MPEG2 with support for HDR. Incorporating 12G-SDI, HDMI 2.0, 4 x 3G-SDI or SMPTE 2110 outputs and delivering resolution up to 4K/UHD, this decoder packs powerful performance in a versatile environment.
