Radisys Corporation, a company that provides wireless infrastructure solutions, recently announced that Zoom Video Communications, a cloud meeting company, has selected its MPX-12000 Broadband Media Resource Function (MRF) for HD media processing to enable Zoom’s cloud based audio and video conferencing service.
The MPX-12000 is an advanced multimedia resource function (MRF) for LTE (News - Alert) IMS, providing the scalable IP media processing required for Voice and Video over LTE (VoLTE), HD audio and video, and mobile VAS, combined with specialized media QoS processing services like VQE or IP-IP audio and video transcoding. It supports common video codec standards including H.264 HD video, H.263 and MPEG-4 mobile video, allowing operators to offer scalable video VAS applications and extend HD video conferencing from enterprise locations to remote mobile participants. Having an open platform architecture based on Radisys' T-Series 40G ATCA products, MPX-12000 leverages Radisys' MPX Operating Software (MPX-OS) as its media processing software foundation.
“Our company is dedicated to providing high quality cloud collaboration services that are flexible, bullet proof and easy to consume,” said Eric S. Yuan, chief executive officer and founder, Zoom. “Our team was very familiar with Radisys’ leadership in VoIP conferencing having used them in prior solutions, and we knew they were well equipped to address our needs. By integrating Radisys’ MPX-12000 into our cloud infrastructure, Zoom is able to deliver significantly improved HD multi-media conferencing experiences for our customers.”
In related news, Radisys Corporation recently announced the new high-capacity MPH6 media processing card for its MPX-12000 Broadband Media Resource Function (MRF). The MPH6 extends the market-leading MRF capabilities and is specifically designed to support the processing requirements for large deployments of real-time telecommunication services, including Voice over LTE (VoLTE), high definition (HD) video conferencing, and high-capacity multimedia transcoding services. The new MPH6 card, based on the latest multicore Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology, delivers industry-leading DSP power for processor intensive media stream manipulation.
