WASHINGTON, Nov. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Government Video Technology
Expo 2005 -- Tut Systems Inc. (Nasdaq: TUTS), an industry leader enabling the
delivery of next-generation data and video services over broadband networks,
will showcase its industry-leading MPEG-4 AVC and IP-based forward error
correction solutions from November 30-December 1 at Government Video
Technology Expo 2005 at booth 427.
As the core video processing engine of many government video applications,
Tut Systems' carrier class Astria content processor (CP) platform extends its
industry leadership with the addition of its internally developed, MPEG-4 AVC
encoding and transcoding solutions. With more than 1000 channels deployed,
the Astria CP, and its recently-released Multi-Stream Processor (MSP) card,
are leading the market for MPEG-4 AVC over telecommunications networks around
the world. MPEG-4 AVC compression enables a 50% reduction over MPEG-2 in
bandwidth required to broadcast quality video applications for government
agencies.
Tut Systems will also demonstrate its standards-based, state-of-the-art
forward error correction capabilities for IP video networks carrying
classified and unclassified video information. IP Forward Error Correction
allows routed video networks to recover seamlessly from lost or reordered
packets that cause perceived degradation in video quality. This
high-performance, second-generation solution provides FEC error protection and
recovery for hundreds of channels of video on a single board. Tut's IP FEC
solution may be integrated into an Astria CP or act as a standalone FEC-only
system for third-party video processing solutions using IP transport.
"As a long-time supplier of video processing solutions to government
agencies, Tut Systems is proud of our growing success in the emerging MPEG-4
AVC space," said Mark Tiedeman, Vice President of Marketing for Tut Systems.
"Our internally developed MPEG-4 AVC technology and our history of migrating
government customers seamlessly from one video technology to the next makes
Tut Systems the clear choice for the government's video transport, video
surveillance, and broadcast video applications."
The Industry's Leading Carrier-Class Video Platform
Government agencies around the world use Tut Systems' solutions for
mission-critical, real-time broadcast, surveillance, and conferencing
