Leveraging Harmonic's award-winning software-based XOS Advanced Media Processor, SJC can cost-effectively deliver exceptional video quality to viewers and tap into new business models to drive revenue growth.
"Streamlining our playout-and-delivery workflow with Harmonic's software solutions is the next step in our long-standing collaboration with the company that is built on a foundation of proven performance and outstanding support," said Takashi Maenaka, team leader of the media technology unit at SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation. "The flexibility of Harmonic's XOS media processor positions us to expand into new market segments and launch targeted services, paving the way for sustained future growth."

"Leveraging cutting-edge compression and playout capabilities powered by the Harmonic XOS media processor, SJC can deliver exceptional viewing experiences and thrive in the rapidly evolving broadcast landscape."
