Sony PWS-4500 Server
The PWS-4500 is capable of recoding up to four UHD 4K video signals or eight HD video signals and 16 audio channels. It can simultaneously create and record HD files from a 4K source. A full HD picture can be cut out from up to 3 recorded 4K sources.
The PWS-4500 supports all High Frame Rate standards, from 3x up to the 8x speed with 4K at 2x. You can record “HFR” feeds for instantaneous replay in silky smooth slow
motion.
The PWS-4500 records 4K HDR or HD content using the ultra-efficient XAVC codec, delivering supreme picture quality with smaller file sizes. In 4K workflows, the server generates a single 4K XAVC MXF file that’s easily handled by today’s non-linear editing systems. The PWS-4500 supports HDR natively in
4K/HD with the ability to record with 10bit and BT2020.
The PWSL-DH45 codec option, gives the PWS-4500 the capability of recording the files as DNxHD220x/145/45 to fit into a Avid DNxHD production and postproduction
environment. Or with the PWSL-PH45 codec option installed the system also supports Apple ProRes 422 and 422 HQ for native recording capability.
