IP Video Gateways Enable Terrestrial Backhaul of Broadcast-Quality
Video to Cost-Effectively Connect Global Clients With Distant
Teleports SAN DIEGO, Aug. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Path 1
Network Technologies Inc. (AMEX:PNO), a leading provider of video
gateway products that enable the transmission of broadcast-quality
video over IP networks, today announced that LBiSat, an
international satellite communications contracting and consulting
firm, has deployed Path 1 IP video gateways in a variety of
applications involving terrestrial transport networks for video
content contribution. LBiSat is using the Path 1 equipment to
aggregate live and file-based content from its customers by
transporting their video feeds over long-haul IP networks and
backhauling the content to multiple teleport facilities across the
United States. Additionally, LBiSat will use Path 1's video
gateways to interconnect its own teleport facilities terrestrially
to improve the cost and efficiency of delivering IP-based video
across LBiSat's own network. Path 1's video gateways ensure that
content arrives at its destination with the same quality and
reliability with which it was sent, a challenge for long-haul IP
video transport, which often traverses multiple networks that may
not be designed to support broadcast-quality video, making the
video susceptible to problems and impairments. By ensuring the
quality and integrity of the video stream over long-haul transport,
Path 1's video gateways help LBiSat's clients leverage their
existing infrastructure investments and take advantage of the
ubiquity and "reach" afforded by terrestrial IP networks. With this
approach, LBiSat is also transferring cost savings to its clients
by leveraging a fiber backbone and maximizing its own satellite
bandwidth. Path 1's ability to backhaul video over IP further
benefits LBiSat's clients by providing them with a broader
distribution footprint while enabling them with additional
economical means to gather more content more efficiently. "LBiSat
is pleased with the performance of the Path 1 equipment," said Bob
Griffith, director of sales, LBiSat. "Our customers span the world
and include carriers, government agencies and large multi-national
enterprises. The high performance IP video gateways from Path 1
complement our core satellite operations and allow us to serve our
customers more cost effectively for video transport applications."
Many of LBiSat's projects involving Path 1 combine satellite and
terrestrial solutions for both broadcast and enterprise
organizations; the applications range from electronic
news-gathering (ENG) to IPTV to video conferencing. In each case,
the Path 1 video gateway is used to deliver real-time,
broadcast-quality MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and VC-1 video in both standard
(SD) and high definition (HD) formats to remote locations over
public and private IP networks. "We are ecstatic to be working with
innovative companies such as LBiSat," said Dan McCrary, vice
president, marketing for Path 1. "Teleport operators have been
upgrading their satellite networks to support more IP transport for
cost-performance reasons; it's natural to use terrestrial IP
networks as a complementary extension to create a new generation of
hybrid networks. Using our carrier-class IP video gateways, any
teleport operator can interconnect its remote facilities over a
common IP network and get perfect-quality video." About LBiSat
