International. Grass Valley has reached a new product milestone with the sale of more than 1,000 Nvision8500 routers to broadcasters, studios, mobile production and broadcast facilities internationally.
The Nvision router was designed with an eye on the future and easily adapts to support higher levels of processing, bandwidth and even connectivity. When the series was released, it was originally a family of one, designed and shipped as the NV8576 that supported the SDI over coaxial cable and fiber, as well as the AES. Since then, the series has been expanded to include four additional frames: NV8144, NV8280, NV8576-Plus, and NV8140.
With the growth of the family, the series became Nvision, ideal for customers looking to expand into larger frames without having to replace all of their I/O or crossover point cards. The series also offers customers the possibility of having multi-router systems and only a set of spare parts.
By listening to customer needs, Grass Valley has developed innovations that have made the NV8500 series one of the most successful routing technology platforms on the market today.
