Profile is the world broadcast leader when it comes to video servers. Profile delivers greater flexibility for moving compressed video over networks -- you pick the format -- JPEG, MPEG-2 4:2:2 or DVCPRO, Profile supports them all. And Profile is the cornerstone of Grass Valley Group's vision for the future. We call it the Digital Media Foundation -- our initiative to provide an open systems environment for applications ranging from editing and live production to on-air play-out. This may explain why the Profile PDR is the number one selling server in the Broadcast market today.

The Profile PDR family is comprised of three products which support all the major industry compression formats. The PDR200 with M-JPEG is a good fit for a wide range of applications, and is especially ideal for editing applications and solutions that require many input channels.

The PDR300 with MPEG-2 4:2:2. For play to air applications nothing beats the PDR300, with its many output channels and large storage capacity.

The PDR400 with DVCPRO. If you are working with DVCPRO Acquisition equipment, you need the PDR400. It is fully compatible with DVCPRO, offering two ways to load material: video and fibre channel.
