Harris Corporation Introduces Video Networking and Microwave
Solution for Global Video Network Operators - Harris combines
flagship broadcast and wireless technologies to deliver the
industry's most flexible solution for video networking and
transport - RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., April 18
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), a leading
global provider of wireless equipment and services, today
introduced the Harris Video Networking and Microwave solution. This
combination of two industry-leading systems -- the NetVX(TM)
high-speed, integrated networking system from Harris' Broadcast
Communications Division and the TRuepoint(TM) next-generation
microwave digital radio system from its Microwave Communications
Division -- offers global video network operators such as
broadcasters, public safety agencies and other content distributors
unprecedented flexibility and reach to seamlessly transport
conventional and digital video, audio and data traffic across
common carrier and Studio Transmitter Link (STL) environments.
"Using our Video Networking and Microwave Solution, Harris
customers can now distribute legacy and emerging digital content
via any network or protocol," said Asif Rahman, vice president,
product line management for Harris' Microwave Communications
Division. "This flexibility gives video network operators the means
to cut operational costs, enter new markets quickly and leverage
all content regardless of origin. These benefits provide a direct,
positive impact on a broadcaster's bottom line and provide easy
migration to full digital video networking." The two components of
Harris' Video Networking and Microwave solution -- NetVX and
TRuepoint -- are built on the same powerful concept: modular,
software-programmable technology designed for versatility and
economy. Together, these platforms deliver the means to access new
markets, enhance revenues and reduce overall cost of ownership.
Additionally, the Harris Video Networking and Microwave Solution
allows global video network operators to leverage their existing
infrastructure while they migrate to new, digital applications and
content. TRuepoint, which meets FCC Part 101 requirements for
common carrier applications and FCC Part 74 requirements for video
STL and TSL applications, leads the industry in performance and
manageability. TRuepoint also dramatically lowers the cost of
ownership by operating at multiple frequencies and supporting
multiple applications from a common platform. NetVX delivers a new
paradigm in video networking by replacing up to 14 hardwired
components previously needed to support only one type of network
with an infinitely flexible platform that can handle every
packet-based architecture -- ATM, IP and microwave -- as well as
satellite. About TRuepoint(TM) TRuepoint(TM) leads the wireless
backhaul industry in performance and manageability. Its modular,
software-selectable architecture is able to seamlessly switch
between PDH and SDH applications, enabling service providers to use
a universal platform to deliver multiple applications throughout
their networks. Designed specifically for point-to-point wireless
applications, TRuepoint can deliver service from 4 to 180 Mbps at
frequencies ranging from 6 to 38 GHz. In addition, service
providers can completely manage TRuepoint deployments remotely with
SNMP-based management. Built-in diagnostics and performance
management are also available. About NetVX(TM) NetVX(TM) is an
integrated, high-speed network connectivity solution that can
establish links with all packet-based (ATM and IP) services for
efficient movement of media between physically disparate locations.
Featuring a modular architecture, NetVX can support any
contribution and/or distribution application and offers
plug-and-play upgrade paths for network growth and evolution. About
