RadiSys has announced a new media processing blade for the Convedia CMS-9000 Media Server. The new Media Processing Card IV (MPC-IV) delivers capacity and performance improvements for processing-intensive applications such as conferencing, video and low bitrate codec. The Convedia CMS-9000 Media Server, announced last year and already deployed in customer production networks today, was designed from the outset to accommodate modular capacity upgrades. The new MPC-IV card adds additional Digital Signal Processor resources to the original Media Processing Card III (MPC-III) hardware design, providing up to 24,000 ports of media processing power on the CMS-9000 platform, representing a 30 percent capacity improvement compared to the media processing cards in RadiSys’ first generation CMS-6000 Media Server systems. The new MPC-IV card continues to offer the improved CPU power of the original MPC-III design for CPU-bound applications like VoiceXML IVR processing, while adding the additional DSP resources for improved conference mixing, video, low bitrate codec and transcoding capacity.

The new MPC-IV card is designed to be hosted in the CMS-9000 Media Server chassis, as well as CMS-6000 systems deployed with leading service providers around the globe. The new high-capacity media processing blade is 100 percent backward compatible with RadiSys media processing and redundancy features, management and control interfaces. The MPC-IV card has already completed NEBS Level 3 safety certification for telecommunications environments, while meeting Restriction on Hazardous Substances environmental standards for telecommunications equipment manufacturing.
