随着IBC2014的大幕被拉开，4K和超高清技术在这届IBC上被广泛的讨论。PHABRIX作为全球最先进测试、监测设备的生产厂家，也在本届IBC上发布了最新的4K和超高清技术。该技术能够对12Gb/s信号的眼图，以及抖动进行测量。拥有此项令人难以置信功能的测试设备是广受好评和欢迎的PHABRIX RX模块化机架系列。
PHABRIX believes this to be an industry first on technology capable of offering solutions for all 4K and UHDTV1 formats on a dedicated platform built on the toolsets already in use for mainstream test and measurement. Paul Nicholls, sales and marketing director of PHABRIX commented, ‘The technology we are working on and displaying at IBC is a leap ahead of anything currently available in the market. Whereas there have been a lot of announcement about 4K, there is still largely a misunderstanding of the many formats and colour spaces associated with these new higher resolution and higher frame rate formats. By demonstrating the 12 Gb/s eye capability and displaying the board created as one of the modules available for the Rx chassis, we have announced to the broadcast industry that we not only have an upgrade path for our technology and existing users, but also a clear understanding and roadmap for the PHABRIX Rx series.
The company would not be pushed on delivery dates however it is their intention to provide product for release at NAB 2015. On the stand in Hall 8 E40, PHABRIX will be displaying its new technology under wraps in a special ‘For your eyes only’ and invites both broadcast manufacturers and station heads to come and view the technology for themselves.
Phillip Adams, founder of PHABRIX added, ‘We are working with leading edge technology not yet commercially available to the market hence our decision to release at NAB 2015. There are serious limitations with current 4K and UHDTV product offerings. What we are demonstrating offers a complete solution supporting 4x 12Gb/s SDI (48 Gb/s) and optical interconnects based upon next generation FPGA technology. Cutting through the confusion is what we have always strived to do at PHABRIX. I welcome talking to fellow technologists at IBC to understand the application of our new technology in solving some of the problems they foresee migrating to 4K and UHDTV1 formats.
