Harmonic spotlights ‘TV Everywhere’ offerings at Expo

Harmonic will be featuring its slate of TV Everywhere-based products at next week’s SCTE Cable-Tec Expo in Denver.

With the interest that Time Warner Cable and Comcast have shown in the TV Everywhere concept, as well as commitments from Verizon and DirecTV, TV Everywhere looks to be one of the dominant themes at Expo.

Key demonstrations for Harmonic will include its MediaPrism suite of tools for converged video delivery to any device, the Electra 8000 encoder's superior quality 4:1 HD or 18:1 SD MPEG-2 compression, ACE any-to-any high-quality transcoding technology, fiber-deep HFC access solutions and integrated audio level adjustment.

Harmonic will also have a live technology demonstration of its HectoQAM edge processing technology currently in development, feeding video streams directly to its SupraLink 550 nm DWDM transport system for ultra-efficient delivery across the HFC network.
