New 60-bay edition of media server and storage appliance earns recognition for innovative and forward-looking design Dusseldorf, Germany, Nov 21, 2017: ELEMENTS, developer of advanced solutions for unrestricted collaboration in shared media workflows, has announced that its scalable media server and storage appliance ,ELEMENTS NAS, was awarded the Coup de Coeur at the Satis Expo 2017 in Paris. The judges acknowledged the unit's exceptional design and unique features that include 25/100 GbE connectivity, enabling customers to handle 4K RAW workflows via Ethernet, currently not possible using existing 10GbE technology. Specifically designed for the broadcast and post-production industry, ELEMENTS NAS' enhanced performance benefits especially high-end grading, compositing and editing workflows.

Our Media Library won the Coup de Coeur in 2016, and now ELEMENTS NAS has been recognized as a unique solution - we are thrilled! says Andr Kamps, CEO of ELEMENTS.
