Full-featured, multichannel video and audio processing, distribution and compression applications are enabled at a size and density scale unprecedented in the marketplace. MPEG-2 and H.264 are supported from SD and HD to 3 Gb/s and mobile. And a built-in Web-based interface using Microsoft® Silverlight® technology enables operators to easily manage the platform’s advanced capabilities.

To ensure a cost-effective, seamless evolution path, inputs, outputs and functionality can be rapidly increased to meet any new requirement by simply adding video and audio expansion modules to the Selenio frame. The result is a high-performance, easy-to-operate, streamlined solution that simplifies broadcast infrastructure and provides cost savings throughout the product lifecycle.

Overview

With the growing need in broadcast environments to support content from many new sources — and deliver it over many new mediums — there is an increasing demand to apply some of the networking efficiencies inherent in the IP domain.

Today’s customers recognize that IP infrastructure will eventually become the norm in the broadcast facility as compression gets better, networks get larger and products get less expensive. While this shift will ultimately drive cost savings, the transition period will undoubtedly present challenges.

Selenio™ is a next-generation, modular solution that presents an all-new approach to networking and signal processing in this converging baseband/broadband arena. With Selenio, Harris has introduced the industry’s first integrated media convergence platform.

An evolution in platform — a revolution in what you can do.

Selenio combines traditional baseband video and audio processing, compression and IP networking features — all in a single, space-saving 3RU frame. This combination of technologies enables full-featured multichannel video and audio processing, distribution and compression applications at a size and density scale that is unprecedented in the marketplace.

To manage all that functionality? A built-in, highly intuitive, graphically rich, web-based interface using Microsoft® Silverlight® technology, which enables operators to get the most functionality from the new platform — without being buried under an avalanche of manuals and bespoke commands.

Now you can manage baseband and IP intelligently and efficiently. Reduce cabling and simplify your broadcast infrastructure. Deftly juggle multiple compression standards, video/audio signals, encoding formats. Get all the functionality you need to run your business today — and a clear, cost-effective growth path to whatever is on your horizon.
