Standard features include HD-SDI video I/O with frame synchronization, for recording wild sources like tape and satellite feeds. Audio formats include embedded audio, and your choice of AES/EBU digital or balanced +4 analog. When image quality has to be high and cost manageable, JPEG 2000 is a first choice. New wavelet-based coding has made it a leading format for new cameras and production, while its I-frame structure makes editing easy. It's also the sole standard for digital cinema. 360 Systems offers JPEG-2000 at bandwidths all the way to 125 Mb, to suit every level of image quality.

It's HD-SDI inputs and outputs, plus analog and digital audio formats, make it a smooth fit with production and broadcast. Compatible with leading automation systems, MAXX 2400 is ideally suited as a play-to-air server, as a cache for satellite ingest, graphics storage and remote trucks.
