Interoperation between MD8000 and Artel DL4000
Artel Video Systems announces interoperation between DL4000 and Media Links MD8000 Video Transport Platforms
Boxborough, MA - January 19, 2010 Artel Video Systems is pleased to announce that in cooperation with Media Links Incorpration it has successfully completed an interoperability test between DL4000 and MD8000 Video Transport Platforms.
The test included interoperation between Artel's DLC300, DLC170AD, DLC170DA, and DLC270 and MediaLinks MD8000-VIF modules. This interoperation allows customers to take full advantage of the strength of the MD8000 as a networking platform and DL4000's strengths as a cost, space and power efficient platform for edge and tributary applications. In addition to SD-SDI, DVB-ASI HD-SDI, and ATSC Artel's DLC170 enables users to transport Composite NTSC or PAL Analog Video over Media Links IP or SONET based networks. "As ILEC's, CLEC's, and CATV operators expand on their triple play networks, interoperation between platforms has become a critical part of their decision in choosing equipment vendors. With that in mind Artel has been careful to design the DL4000 platform with industry standard interfaces. This has enabled us to work with many IP and SONET based networking platforms including Media Links MD8000," said Richard Dellacanonica President of Artel Video Systems, "We will continue this design methodology as we expand the DL4000 platform."
