Riedel at Michael Jackson's funeral

The L.A. complex Live entrusts the MediorNet solution with the distribution of high-definition signals for the giant screens inside and outside the stadium, as well as several mobile units of television networks that were covering the event.

A total of 8 MediorNet installed Riedel in the L.A. complex. Live in Los Angeles on the occasion of the memorial for Michael Jackson held recently after the divo's death. These systems were responsible for the distribution of high definition video signals to the giant screens located both outside and inside the venue as well as to numerous HD mobile units from various chains parked nearby.

Riedel's MediorNet integrated signal transport, mapping, processing and conversion within a real-time network for multi-channel and uncompressed HD/SD video, audio, intercom and data.

The MediorNet solution combines up to 153 GBit/s on a single fiber link to each mainframe, enabling matrix allocation capacity of 32 x 32 (for 720p/1080p signals), 160 x 160 (for SD-SDI) or 27000 x 27000 (for AES signals), or any type of combinations between these.

Dennis Kornegay, technical manager of LA Live, commented that “on the occasion of the last edition of NAB we were very excited about the possibilities of MediorNet. After its first use, we were very pleased with the experience. We are pleased to have chosen Riedel's MediorNet for signal distribution along our production backbone in the complex. And in the face of an event as momentous and emotional as Michael Jackson's memorial, it is important that we have technology that we can trust. MediorNet's flexibility allows it to gradually adapt to the needs of events like these."
