K2 Summit 3G Transmission models features

This chapter contains information that is unique to K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models. Refer to other chapters for information that applies to all K2 Summit systems.

K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models are optimized for playout, rather than record. Input/output configurations support the needs of playout applications. Higher efficiency MPEG-2 encoding reduces bandwidth and increases storage capacity. The result is that the K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models are restricted to a subset of K2 Summit system bit rates, formats, and other features.

The following feature lists contain features that are unique to K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models. Features common to all K2 Summit models, both K2 Summit Production Client models and K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models, are not listed here.

Features that all K2 Summit 3G Transmission Client models share are as follows:

  • Records video with 16 channels of audio at 24bits/sample.
  • Supports the following formats:
    • 720p/1080i – MPEG-2, XDCAM-HD, XDCAM-EX, XDCAM-HD422, AVC-Intra 50, AVC-Intra 100, DVCPROHD (DV100)
    • SD – MPEG-2, D10 (30,40,50), DVCAM, DVCPRO25/50
  • Supports MPEG-2 formats at 100Mbps or less and other formats at 50Mbps or less.
  • Supports FTP bandwidth up to 30 MB/second.
