PIXFIX Xport

Teleport your video

pixfix server

PIXFIX Xport and PIXFIX Inport, works in pair for IP Video teleport solution for both entry level and enterprise needs between studios and branches. If you have a point to point connect, this cost effective solution helps you in doing away with traditional OBV and expensive satellite based teleport. With PIXFIX Xport the product is best suited for contribution and distribution encoding across Multi System Operators and Studios for dense multichannel video distribution.
