Xilinx®, a leader in adaptive computing, is introducing a highly integrated streaming solution based on its adaptive SoC that enables simple, rapid launch and deployment through immediate shipping or customer customization. This is expected to help AV system and IP integrators enter the broadcast and professional-grade AV product markets.

Xilinx announced that it is providing the industry's first and only production-ready multimedia streaming endpoint solution for broadcast and professional-grade AV (Audio/Video) applications in collaboration with its ecosystem of IP and system integrators.

These fully implemented solutions are based on Xilinx’s powerful Zynq® UltraScale+™ EV MPSoC (Multi-Processor System-on-a-Chip) and Zynq-7000 SoC devices, and are supported by system integrators’ FPGA IP, media framework software, and production-ready products.

Because these highly integrated solutions can be shipped immediately or customized for specific applications, broadcast and professional-grade AV products can be brought to market more quickly and easily.

Multimedia streaming requires a flexible AV interface, real-time video processing, and various professional-grade video codecs, as well as a stable high-bandwidth Ethernet transport layer for AVoIP (AV-over-IP), and Xilinx Zynq devices provide all of these capabilities. AVoIP is the core of broadcast endpoints and infrastructure, as well as keyboard-video-mouse technology, streaming endpoints, AV routers, switchers, video wall controllers, and collaboration equipment.
