Streambox will unveil new video transport solutions for mobile news gathering over IP or satellite at IBC2006, including the compact, lightweight Streambox SBT3-7500 encoder — a plug-and-connect, real-time video transport system that delivers MPEG-2 video quality at a lower data rate and 50 percent better efficiency than MPEG-4 systems.

Weighing only 5lbs and measuring just 2.5in high, 12in wide and 13in deep, the Streambox SBT3-7500 offers encoding performance in a very small form factor. The SBT3-7500 is intended for mobile news gathering in a news truck, airborne/seaborne surveillance and video transport, or any other setting in which portability, flexibility and a lower power requirement are desired. For example, the SBT3-7500 encoder can be powered using an 80W car battery for maximum mobility.
