Sencore has focused on enhancing the AFN platform’s capabilities to better serve customers and meet the evolving demands of modern broadcast workflows. With the integration of 12G-SDI input, the AFN platform now offers even greater flexibility, allowing users to choose from 12G-SDI, 4x3G, 3G, HD, and SD-SDI in a single hardware option. “This is perfect for applications that require high-quality, low-latency video encoding and decoding across diverse contribution, news gathering, and remote production scenarios,” said Aaron Doughten, Director of Technology.
The Sencore AFN platform is designed with a modular architecture, offering a range of configuration options to meet the needs of any broadcast or media workflow. Supporting up to 4K UHD resolution at 4:2:2 10-bit, the AFN ensures exceptional video quality with compatibility across HEVC, H.264, and MPEG2 video codecs. This expanded versatility enables users to deliver high-quality video content seamlessly, with the added benefits of contribution-level encoding and decoding, ASI, IP, SRT I/O, and multiplexing—all in one platform.
“We are excited to continue evolving the AFN platform with new enhancements like the 12G-SDI input,” said Seth VerMulm, Director of Product Management at Sencore. “These updates exemplify our dedication to pushing the boundaries of video delivery technology and supporting our customers with world-class solutions that address their needs for flexibility, performance, and reliability.”
With the new 12G-SDI option, the Sencore AFN platform strengthens its position as a leader in the broadcast industry by delivering a scalable, high-performance video processing solution backed by Sencore’s world-renowned ProCare support services.
