Product Overview +

Virtualized Microservice Media Processing

The Evertz MIO-BLADE-Z21 is a flexible, generic FPGA-based compute blade engineered for agile broadcast edge processing. By utilizing the Evertz Virtualized Compression Stack, the MIO-BLADE-Z21 allows facility operators to dynamically deploy, update, or swap software services (APPs) on the hardware as workflow requirements evolve. This software-defined paradigm eliminates fixed-function hardware constraints and supports both perpetual and temporal licensing models to help transition infrastructure investments toward operational expenditure (OpEx) models.

Multi-Format SDI and IP Gateway Services

Featuring eight high-density HDBNC connectors, the dual-slot module processes 12G-SDI, 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, and DVB-ASI signals with built-in automatic cable equalization and low-jitter reclocked outputs. The MIO-BLADE-Z21 offers out-of-the-box IP gateway APPs (MIO-APP-IPG-2110 and MIO-APP-IPG-2022) requiring no additional software licenses. These services provide eight configurable gateway paths with SMPTE ST 2110-10/20/30/40 and ST 2022-2/6 support, ST 2022-7 hitless redundancy, 2SI quad/single-link UHD conversion, and 1/10/25G link rate selection.

Scalable Compression, UDX, and Signal Processing APPs

Through additional application key licenses, the MIO-BLADE-Z21 supports specialized signal processing software applications:

  • JPEG XS Compression (MIO-APP-XS Series): Configurable encode/decode configurations using TR-07 for ultra-low latency transport up to 12G/4K.
  • JPEG2000 Codecs (MIO-APP-J2K Series): Supports bi-directional encoding and decoding paths for 3G/HD/SD-SDI transport.
  • Up/Down/Cross & HDR Conversion (MIO-APP-UDX Series): Provides single-channel 4K or dual-channel 3G conversion with 3D LUT HDR processing.
  • Audio/Video Delay & Quad-Link Conversion: Features dedicated delay software (MIO-APP-DLY2) providing up to 5 seconds of 3G or 10 seconds of HD delay, along with bi-directional UHD quad-to-single link format conversion (MIO-APP-2QUAD).
