RIST Advanced Profile Use Cases Webinar

RIST Advanced Profile Use Cases Webinar

Join a panel of experts as we discuss the applications of RIST Advanced Profile. Released at the end of 2021, RIST Advanced Profile (TR-06-3:2021) greatly expands the functionality and interoperability of RIST devices, providing new capabilities that enable a wide variety of reliable, secure media signal transport applications.

RIST Advanced Profile includes a protected tunnelling mode that can carry any legacy protocol, including RTP-based media signals such as SMPTE ST 2110, ST 2022 and MPEG TS over UDP. In addition, bidirectional protocols based on TCP can be transported securely and reliably in the same packet tunnel while consuming only a single UDP port to simplify firewall configuration. Enhancements have also been made to RIST security features, to add support for some of the latest encryption and authentication technologies.

In this webinar, we will discuss the use cases where the features and functionality of Advanced Profile will make a difference for users.

When: Tuesday 30th August, 11am EST

Moderator: Wes Simpson, President, LearnIPVideo

Panel:

  • Ciro Noronha, EVP Engineering, Cobalt Digital, and President, The RIST Forum
