Boxx Communications announced that it is delivering 12 more Boxx TV Meridian Wireless Microwave Broadcast Systems to Panavision . The Meridian System, which was recently selected by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences (AMPAS) for further Sci-Tech awards consideration, delivers high-quality, uncompressed SD and HD video over license-exempt channels, with zero delay. This technology works with all formats (composite, component, SDI and HDSDI) and frame rates, allowing for affordable, new SD and HD transmission for broadcasting.
The Meridian supports full 4:2:2 video for all formats up to 1080/30p, and delivers uncompressed, artifact-free broadcast video with in-sync sound to integrate seamlessly with coax cameras switched live.
The Meridian system is used in a variety of settings frequently found on feature film and TV productions, at live broadcasts of sports, worship, award ceremonies and news, and in large screen presentations.
Panavision has deployed the Boxx TV Meridian for several feature films, including Transformers, Let’s Be Cops and Pacific Rim, and on TV shows including Dallas, CSI, NCIS, Army Wives and Body of Proof.
