Selenio X100 delivers a wide array of analog and digital real-time baseband video and audio processing capabilities, along with the exceptional quality and dependability that have been the hallmark of the popular, award-winning Imagine Communications series of 1RU processors.
Supporting SD (optional dual channel analog video) and HD formats, including built-in 3 Gb/s 1080p Level A and Level B-DL processing, Selenio X100 is equipped with easy-to-use control and monitoring via a built-in web server. It offers a multitude of standard features such as video processing, color correction and clipping, dual logo generation/insertion, an expanded data wrangler for VANC data and metadata processing for up to 16 services including SCTE-104 GPI, and time code insertion and extraction.
For superior audio functionality, Selenio X100 provides two 16-channel SDI de-embedders and embedders, 16 AES input or output ports, 8-channel input and output analog audio interfaces, and 32-channel internal audio processing. Options are available for animated logos for branding content, program delay for profanity avoidance for live events, and for Dolby Digital Plus for 7.1 surround sound.
At Imagine Communications, our solutions are designed to meet today’s needs, as well as the requirements of tomorrow — the Selenio X100 is future-proofed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GigE) uncompressed baseband over IP, and UHD-1 Ultra-HD, to ensure support for hybrid and next-generation television and production systems.
From ingest to outbound processing and tape archive to production and post production applications and much more, the powerful, energy-efficient Selenio X100 processor easily integrates into the signal workflow of any broadcast environment, including mobile production/OB trucks, small stations, production studios and larger networks.
