Vizrt NRS16-192TB NRS16 SNS 16-bay / 192TB with 4 x 10 GbE - FG-003286-R001

Product Overview

The Vizrt NRS16-192TB is a 16-bay, 192TB shared storage system powered by SNS, providing high-capacity production storage across four 10 GbE ports for broadcast facilities managing large media libraries. Positioned between the 160TBHDD and 224TB configurations, the NRS16-192TB offers a capacity-optimized option for facilities that have outgrown 160TB but do not yet require maximum 224TB density. All NRS software tools including ShareBrowser MAM, Slingshot automations, and Nomad remote editing are included for unlimited users.

Product Description

The NRS16-192TB addresses the storage requirements of broadcast operations, sports production teams, and enterprise media facilities running continuous live programming at high bitrates where media accumulation requires dedicated high-capacity shared storage. Four 10 GbE ports support multi-user concurrent access for NDI recording, editing, and playout across the 192TB pool. ShareBrowser MAM scales efficiently to large media libraries, providing proxy thumbnails, AI-assisted tagging, and direct-to-TriCaster DDR retrieval across the full archive. Slingshot automations maintain storage hygiene by managing off-load to nearline or cloud storage on defined schedules. NRS API integration connects the storage system directly to TriCaster for automated recording triggers. Supports up to four NRS16 expansion chassis for future capacity growth, with redundant power supply standard.
