Product Overview
The Avid NEXIS Cross-Grade from E5 480TB All-Mirror to F5 All-Mirror with ExpertPlus Maintenance is a structured upgrade program for organizations with an existing NEXIS E5 480TB All-Mirror system moving to the NEXIS F5 All-Mirror platform. This cross-grade preserves system-wide NEXIS Media Mirror protection while migrating to the F5 platform's 25/50GbE connectivity and higher bandwidth. ExpertPlus with Hardware Support is included through the transition.
Product Description
The NEXIS F5 All-Mirror configuration enables NEXIS Media Mirror protection on all workspaces system-wide, writing data to two independent locations simultaneously. Combined with the F5's 25/50GbE networking and up to 3.84 GB/s aggregate bandwidth, this configuration suits broadcast facilities requiring high throughput and workspace-level data protection.
Cross-grade eligibility and transition logistics should be confirmed with Creation Networks prior to purchase. NEXIS SDA or SDA+ is required and sold separately.
