The Cable Public Affairs Channel’s critical bilingual governmental programming reaches 11 million homes in Canada. They implemented a unique real-time media-over-IP system to replace an aging CWDM system and realized the benefits of IP. The commissioning and training for this successful system took just 3 days and CPAC was ready for air.

(Integrated Routing, Increased Capacity, Operational Flexibility, Non -Blocking, Ease of Future Expansion, Fast Implementation, Compact, Data Integration, Cost Effective) 2) ST 2022 -6 is a Viable Comfortable First Step into Real -Time Media -Over -IP. Many of the Benefits of IP can be Realized with ST 2022 -6. ‒PTP not Required ‒Path to ST 2110 can be Designed in 24 AIMS IP Showcase IBC 2019 September 2019 Curated by Video Services Forum vsf.tv 13 I P S H O W C A S E T H E AT R E AT I B C 2 0 1 9 : 1 3 –1 7 S E P T 2 0 1 9 Summary 3) Standard Design Practice for SDI Facilities was to Create a Large Centralized Router. When Additional Locations or Capacity Expansion was Required, Tie Line Management was Deployed using CWDM or SDI Trunks. The Blocking Limitations Around these Techniques has Caused Substantial Frustration. IP can be used to Build Geographically Dispersed Systems while Maintaining Non - Blocking Functionality. 4) There is a Substantial Install Base of CWDM Systems Throughout Our Industry. These Could Migrate to IP to the Benefit of Users. 25 I P S H O W C A S E T H E AT R E AT I B C 2 0 1 9 : 1 3 –1 7 S E P T 2 0 1 9 Thank you Thank you to our Media Partners Roy Folkman, Embrionix Design roy.folkman@embrionix.com 1-519 -835 -8828 Eitan Weisz, CPAC eweisz@cpac.ca 26 Thank You
