SAN JOSE, Calif., April 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Altera
Corporation (NASDAQ: ALTR) will offer a host of Ultra HD end-to-end
solutions demonstrations at the 2015 National Association of
Broadcasters convention (NAB) from April 13
to 16, in Las Vegas, at the
Las Vegas Convention Center
(Altera booth #SU10707). Featured for the first time will be the
Altera multichannel, real-time H.265 hardware codec delivering a
high quality full HD experience by implementing the Altera H.265 IP
on a single chip with unprecedented quality and efficiency.
Altera will demonstrate how equipment makers can implement Ultra
HD (UHD) products today with 4K resolution, deeper color, and
higher frame rates. Together with Oregano Systems, Altera is among
the first vendors to offer a fully SMPTE-compliant sync solution,
anticipating SMPTE's imminent announcement of the publication of
its time-labeling and clock synchronization standards, ST2059-1 and
ST2059-2, critical to delivering IP-based video transport.
Altera will showcase complete end-to-end UHD and high density HD
solutions, including the following:
- Video over IP - 4K60 transport over a standard 10
Gigabit Ethernet IP network using SMPTE2022 from Macnica
- Precision Clock Synchronization - Ultra-precise SMPTE
ST2059-2 clock synchronization from Oregano Systems offering
extremely fast locking and genlock over IP for multiple ports
- Light-weight Compression - 4K60 visually lossless,
small-footprint compression using TICO from Intopix
- HDMI and DisplayPort - 4K60 display over HDMI 2.0 and
DisplayPort 1.2
- Video Processing - 4K60 scaling and video processing
with Altera's in-house Video and Image Processing (VIP) Suite
- Ultra-low Latency H.265 - Multichannel configurable,
real-time H.265, ultra-low latency full HD codec
Altera architects will be onsite ready to discuss how customers
can bring Ultra-HD systems to market now, and future proof
them for 8K.
"Altera is proud to unveil the industry's highest-quality H.265
codec along with the most complete 4K60 solution transporting over
SMPTE2022 with light TICO compression, ST2059-2 timing
synchronization, and delivery direct to display through HDMI 2.0,"
