Built to Significantly Improve Network Availability over the
Internet, Lower Operating Costs for Broadcasters LAS VEGAS, NAB,
April 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Path 1 Network Technologies Inc.
(AMEX:PNO), a leading provider of IP video gateway products that
enable the transmission of broadcast-quality video over IP
networks, introduced today the next generation of its flagship
product line, the Vx8000 3.0. New to the Vx8000 IP video gateway is
a set of sophisticated, end-to-end network diagnostic tools that
enables broadcasters to utilize and optimize low-cost Public
Internet links to successfully transport a variety of digital video
formats including real-time content for SDTV, HDTV and IPTV.
Additionally, Path 1 is offering a standalone network analysis
tool, NDx, which allows users to test their existing Internet
connection and determine how much untapped video capacity already
exists. The NDx tool will be available as a free download from Path
1's website in 30 days. Based on customer input and Path 1's
extensive video transport expertise, the Vx8000 3.0 brings to
market a comprehensive toolset that identifies loss period, loss
distance and jitter, and fixes network anomalies that degrade the
reliable transport of high-quality video over the Public Internet.
The Vx8000 represents leading-edge video contribution technology
that enables broadcasters and operators to benefit from the cost
savings, scalability and flexibility the Public Internet provides
for video distribution. Several of Path 1's broadcast customers are
leveraging the Public Internet for video transport across the
globe. RTVi, a 24 hour Russian language TV network with 50 million
viewers worldwide, is enjoying a 90% cost savings over satellite
transport with Path 1's equipment. The company is using the Public
Internet to transport video between its headquarters in New York
City, studios in Moscow and Tel Aviv, and its broadcast station in
Cologne, Germany. In another example, Dhammakaya Thailand is a
religious Buddhist Broadcast Channel that relies on the Public
Internet to transmit real-time video from Thailand to a satellite
service in Hong Kong to reach a worldwide audience. Since deploying
Path 1's technology, Dhammakaya has significantly improved its
network availability for high-quality video from 60% to 99.9%. "The
Public Internet provides an affordable and ubiquitous network for
reliable long-haul transport of high-quality video, and Path 1
provides the only technology that can make it a reality today,"
said Rick Segil, vice president of marketing at Path 1. "Vx8000 3.0
will give broadcasters the advanced tools that will enable them to
first visualize and then realize how effective the Public Internet
can be for moving video content. With the introduction of new
broadcasting technologies and business models, leveraging the
Public Internet is clearly the most cost-effective direction to
take." The Vx8000 3.0 is a multi-port IP video gateway that offers
users the choice of either standards-based Pro-MPEG COP #3 FEC or
ClearPath Pro FEC, which provides the additional error protection
required for reliable video transport over the Public Internet.
With Vx8000, broadcasters can deliver real-time, broadcast-quality
MPEG-2 transport streams carrying MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and VC-1 video in
Standard (SD) and High Definition (HD) formats. Furthermore, Path
1's new network analysis tools monitor, find and fix network errors
that may impair performance in any type of IP network link,
including the Public Internet. The NDx software tool enables users
to develop a better understanding of how video can be reliably
transported over the Public Internet. Availability Vx8000 3.0 is
available immediately. The downloadable version of NDx will be
available from Path 1's website within 30 days. Products are
available for purchase directly through Path 1 Network Technologies
or from any of its worldwide channel partners. Path 1 will showcase
the Vx8000 3.0 at NAB 2006 in its booth #C9535, located in the
Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center the week of April
24-27. About Path 1 Network Technologies Inc. Path 1 Network
