Abstract

The high speed networks that will soon be available should have the bandwidth necessary to handle all of the networking needs of today's studio. With the advent of high definition television (HDTV) the necessary bandwidth will increase more than five-fold. We are interested in what is an appropriate networked-based architecture for the studio. Can we make do with just a single network for all the activities that are included in a studio? Assuming an affirmative answer to the preceding question, will an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network be up to the task? Will it meet the real-time needs of the studio? Will an ATM network have adequate bandwidth for the multiplicity of video signals, particularly for HDTV signals? Or, will other networking technology be necessary such as optical networks based on wavelength division multiplexing?
