Broadpeak unveils new BkS350 origin packager 

Broadpeak has added to its range of streaming servers the BkS350 origin packager with on-the-fly packaging capabilities.

Operators can use the BkS350 origin packager to dynamically convert recorded and video-on-demand content into any ABR streaming format while securing content with DRM encryption, according to Broadpeak.

By enabling operators to package video content on the fly, the BkS350 reduces storage costs and optimises resources for multiscreen delivery, making it suitable for a range of applications, including VOD and cloud PVR services, the firm added.

The BkS350 origin server supports a range of adaptive bit rate formats, including Apple HLS, Microsoft Smooth Streaming, Adobe HDS, and MPEG-DASH, allowing operators to deliver video content to any screen – including TVs, PCs, smartphones, and tablets.

Using HTTP adaptive bit rate technology, the servers offer the best possible video quality depending on their device. The BkS350 origin server can be integrated within a video delivery system from Broadpeak or implemented as a standalone product.

Broadpeak is a provider of content delivery network (CDN) technologies and live and video-on-demand servers for cable, IPTV, OTT, hybrid, and mobile TV operators.

Broadpeak will exhibit at IBC on stand 4.B78
