QuStream Celebrates 35th Anniversary Of Its Routing Technology
QuStream Corporation has announced the 35th anniversary of its routing technology.
Originating in 1973 as Communication Technology Inc., located at Huntsville, Alabama, the core design and production skills were acquired by 3M in 1976 and by Madrid-based PESA in 1990.
A tradition of innovative leadership was established early with the world's first redundant router controller incorporating automatic changeover.
This technology gave broadcasters a very high level of protection against system malfunction and spearheaded the move towards no-single-point-of-failure operation.
Also renowned for reliability, this tradition of engineering excellence has been consistently carried all the way through QuStream's award-winning DRS.
An integral part of the QuStream product family since the acquisition of PESA in 2004, the brand retains a high level of customer awareness and enhances QuStream's own reputation for technical innovation and reliability.
Fred Godard, CEO and founder of the company, said: "QuStream is built on very solid foundation. Combined with the strength of FortelDTV, which is itself backed by 32 years of experience in analog and digital video processing, plus a talented team of engineers, QuStream is ideally positioned to serve the broadcast, corporate and government sectors as they progress into high-bitrate digital HDTV and onward UHDTV.
"The founders of both Comtec (Frank Zimmerman) and FortelDTV (Virgil Lowe) are still with us and play major roles in ensuring that innovation, reliability and value are reflected in every news product at QuStream."
Karlton Burn, Vice President of Global Sales & Marketing at QuStream Corporation and Managing Director of QuStream (International) Limited, said: "We take particular pride in having been chosen to supply equipment to broadcasters covering major US and international sports events including the upcoming Beijing Games.
"Live sports give broadcasters very little opportunity for pre-shoot rehearsal. Equipment has to be fast and easy to operate, and to perform faultlessly first time and every time.
"We deliver proven technology combined with intuitive ergonomics. Our corporate aim is to remain at the cutting edge of video and audio routing and signal processing.
"The television industry at every level has a very exciting future and looks set to expand into many news areas of human activity."
QuStream, embracing the PESA brand and FortelDTV technology, is a global provider of integrated solutions to the creators and distributors of professional video content including the high-definition television and professional audio/video market segments.
The company is headquartered in Toronto, Canada, with offices in the US, Europe and Asia.
