Optibase Demonstrates AVC HD at NAB2006

At NAB, Optibase Ltd., a provider of advanced digital video solutions based in Herzliya, Israel, will demonstrate live encoding of MPEG-4 AVC HD resolution video.

Targeted as a solution for broadband video networks, the Optibase MPEG-4 HD platform provides efficient use of HD bandwidth without compromising video quality and with no requirement for infrastructure upgrades, according to the company.

"The changing requirements of telcos and service providers have been taken into consideration in our flexible model design," said Optibase Marketing Vice President Lior Fite. "Optibase offers a low risk option to simplify the migration path for operators evaluating the deployment of an MPEG-4 HD head-end system, or service providers considering providing specific HD channels and lower bit rates or migrating from MPEG-2 SD/HD to MPEG-4 SD/HD."

Optibase's product offerings are used in various applications including video over DSL/fiber networks, post production for broadcast and cable, archiving and distance learning and are marketed in more than 40 countries.

Optibase will be in Booth SL2927.
