Espial extends VOD hardware portfolio with network edge server

OTTAWA, CANADA: Espial, a leader in on-demand TV software and solutions, has joined forces with BTI Systems to bring Espial MediaBase to the far edge of the network.

The recently announced BTI Systems WideCast 200 & 300 Series are carrier-grade, field serviceable, open standards edge servers that can deliver up to 30Gbps of video streaming and 8TB of storage in a small form factor edge server.

The phenomenal growth in on-demand video usage challenges service providers with ever increasing amounts of metro backbone network traffic. To offload this traffic, the Espial-BTI Systems offers a solution with intelligent content delivery and edge-based streaming.

This cost-effective solution can reduce their access and metro backbone unicast traffic by up to 80 percent by delivering, storing and streaming popular video content at the network edge. This provides a dramatic reduction in networking costs and a superior video experience for on-demand video subscribers.

The Espial-BTI Systems solution combines the Espial MediaBase on-demand video platform with the BTI WideCast 200 & 300 Edge Services appliances.

Espial MediaBase features multi-tier, high performance streaming, intelligent content delivery networking and advanced video quality capabilities.
