n The 21st century digital world is marked by insatiable n consumer demand for streaming video, high definition (HD) n content, and video networking services. Content providers must n deliver greater numbers of real-time programming, channels and n information, 24-7 and with minimal disruption. Vitesse Semiconductor n Corporation (NASDAQ: VTSS) is responding to this changing digital n environment with a new portfolio of products uniquely designed to n address the broadcast video industry's migration to 3G-SDI 1080p HD n and 3D video. Underpinning these devices is HDVScope?, the n latest generation of Vitesse's renowned VScope? embedded waveform n viewing technology, specifically tailored for broadcast video n applications. HDVScope enables real-time signal monitoring and n diagnostics anywhere in a video system where these devices are used.n
n The migration to 3G-SDI, HD and 3D video, along with the necessity of n managing thousands of live links and channels in condensed studio and n mobile studio environments, imposes new challenges on broadcast video n routers and switchers. HD channel count is exploding with n thousands of worldwide HD channels in production, as well as high n penetration rates of HDTV monitors in homes and businesses. The n rise of 3D TV content and service bundling such as audio n embed/de-embed functions also contributes to this growth. 3D TV is n becoming so popular that In-Stat research projects over 100 channels n worldwide by 2015. This upsurge creates complex signal integrity issues n which must be reconciled with the network quality and system performance n required for a superior user experience. With HDVScope, broadcast video n OEMs can minimize and proactively predict potential system downtime, n thanks to the on-chip signal monitoring and new diagnostic capabilities n in the HDVScope-enabled video family.n
n "The breadth of products planned for introduction in 2011 underscores n Vitesse's commitment to the professional broadcast and consumer video n equipment market," said Martin Nuss, chief technical officer for n Vitesse. "Vitesse will leverage its expertise in signal integrity and n network transitions to offer unique solutions that bring new levels of n innovation and performance to solve the system challenges of n next-generation broadcast video networks."n
