Neuron
One platform for all IP and SDI processing needs
The "modular glue" for all audio and video processing requirements in IP and SDI infrastructures
Ultimate IP processing power
Built to fit in any existing and future IP broadcast infrastructure, Neuron offers the most powerful audio and video processing capabilities in the industry and can be used to bridge the gap between SDI and any type of IP media streams, protecting your investments today for future demands.
Core benefits
Unparalleled density
Entirely based on a 100Gb/s architecture, and using one of the most powerful FPGAs in the world, each Neuron board can process up to 32 HD channels or eight UHD channels. Consequently, two boards will fit in a 1 RU frame.
A wide range of functions
Neuron is highly versatile, providing bridging, embedding, de-embedding, synchronization, HDR<>SDR, shuffling, back-up switching, isolation (firewall), up/down/cross conversion, multiviewing and more.
Designed for IP and SDI environments
While it is entirely based on IP technology, Neuron also offers SDI connectivity as an option. This ensures a feature set which includes all IP-specific functions without having to use additional modules.
Total cost of ownership
Neuron supports high bandwidth QSFP+ modules to decrease connectivity costs. And the fact that Neuron runs on the same hardware for all processing functions guarantees significant flexibility. Also, on average the processing boards consume 60% less power compared to similar products on the market.
Intuitive interface
Neuron can be configured and controlled using an intuitive graphical user interface in Cerebrum, EVS’ control and monitoring system. This GUI gives a graphical representation of the internal processing rather than just a list of parameters.
Flexible adaptability
Neuron easily adapts to any changing environment, whether you are in a broadcast facility or in a datacenter. All identities run on the same hardware so you can always reprogram your processing boards at a later stage to change the functionality entirely.
Neuron identities
Neuron identities can be re-deployed in a variety of applications, all based on a single hardware platform.
