Harmonic Facilitates Improved Channel Lineup and Video Quality for KWHY-TV in Preparation for ATSC 3.0 - Seite 2

The Electra and ProStream solutions are controlled by Harmonic's NMX video network management solution, which provides mass configuration, monitoring and automated redundancy in centralized or distributed architectures. Featuring an extensible architecture, NMX allows KWHY to support a hybrid mix of ATSC 1.0 and ATSC 3.0 operations under one control system.

"When ATSC 3.0 is completed later this year, the broadcast community will be able to deliver enhanced video and audio services, which will further stretch the limits of their bandwidth," said Doug Triblehorn, regional vice president of sales for North America Broadcast at Harmonic. "Harmonic's ATSC solution provides KWHY with a flexible and affordable approach to broadcast service delivery, enabling them to add more channels, with top-notch video quality, and make a seamless transition to the future broadcast television system." 

Harmonic will showcase the latest innovations for agile broadcast service delivery at booth SU1210 at the 2016 NAB Show, April 18-21 in Las Vegas. Further information about Harmonic and the company's products is available at www.harmonicinc.com.
