Compact, High-Performance Solution Offers Superior Picture Quality and Low Latency


Sunnyvale, CA, April 8, 2009 — Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc., a leading supplier of innovative computer products and video broadcast products, today announced IP-900, compact MPEG-4 AVC encoder for real-time IP transmission of high-definition and standard-definition content for news gathering and remote applications. The Fujitsu IP-900 reduces cost and improves efficiency while offering low latency and best-in-class picture quality at the lowest possible bit rates. Fujitsu will demonstrate IP-900 and other leading-edge video broadcast technologies at the NAB Show (Booth SU10921), April 20-23, 2009 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas.

“The Fujitsu IP-900 significantly improves operational capabilities in television newsgathering, corporate communications and other applications.
