28/08/2014

(28/08/2014) AVIWEST, a global provider of video contribution systems, announced today that China Mobile Communications has selected its DMNG PRO180 3G/4G video uplink solution to optimize the delivery of live video transmissions. Installed by local system integrator Beijing Xingguang Film and TV Equipment Technologies, AVIWESTs DMNG PRO180 enables China Mobile customers to broadcast live HD video content over its 4G network while maintaining a superior quality of service (QoS) for viewers, even when networks are congested. The solution has been deployed by the predominant state-owned television broadcaster in mainland China for live events and breaking news coverage.

While 4G networks are a cost-effective delivery medium compared with satellite, reliability can be an issue, said Xin Men, director at China Mobile Communications, Shanghai. AVIWESTs video uplink solution ensures that real-time HD video content can be streamed to viewers over 4G networks without experiencing degradation in the quality of service. In addition, the DMNG PRO180 is a lightweight, compact product which makes it ideal for carrying in the field.

AVIWESTs DMNG PRO180 is integrated with China Mobiles 4G modem, and has passed an extensive series of bandwidth tests, proving that the video uplink system is capable of delivering exceptional video quality, regardless of overcrowded networks. Leveraging the QoS specification of the 4G standard, the DMNG PRO180 allows China Mobile to define priorities for certain customers or services when the network is congested. Using the video uplink solution, live video has been successfully transmitted from a variety of major events around China, including a marathon and an international conference. During those events, the QoS implementation guaranteed a defined level of bandwidth to the DMNG PRO180 despite network congestion issues, providing a superior QoS for viewers.

AVIWESTs DMNG PRO180 is an ultra-compact, robust, and highly portable video uplink system that features up to 10 cellular connections (eight 3G/4G internal modems with high-efficiency custom antenna array and two USB interfaces), in addition to a built-in Wi-Fi modem. Leveraging the units H.264 video encoder, broadcasters can stream live HD video with minimal delay.

Weighing only about 1 kg, the DMNG PRO180 is ideal for in-the-field use. It can be connected seamlessly to any professional camera via V-Mount, Gold Mount, or PAGlok plates. Designed with ease of use in mind, the unit automatically detects real-time network capabilities. Through a user-friendly and intuitive touch screen interface, broadcasters can configure and operate the system, and talk to the studio using the IFB two-way communication channel.

To meet China Mobiles top-notch quality of service requirements, we developed a customized software version of the DMNG PRO180 with our partner Beijing Xingguang Film and TV Equipment Technologies, which supports the 4G QoS specification, said Erwan Gasc, CEO, AVIWEST. Collaborating with our partners in this project, were proud to enable the worlds first live video transmission over a 4G network implementing QoS, setting the industry standard for quality of service.

AVIWEST will showcase the DMNG PRO180 at stand 2.A49 during IBC 2014, Sept. 12-16, in Amsterdam. More information on AVIWEST and its products is available at www.aviwest.com.
