Broadpeak BkS450 Streaming Software Passes 1Tbps

Broadpeak is showcasing the BkS450 software at IBC 2023 at stand 1.F76.

Powered by 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, the BkS450 software enables video service providers to deliver low-latency 4K video streaming services, immersive content, and other bandwidth-intensive offerings at up to 1.09 terabits per second (Tbps) of HTTPS traffic with a power efficiency of up to 1.21Gbps/watt — an 11% improvement in energy efficiency compared to the previous-generation solution.

‘Our new BkS450 software passes the symbolic threshold of 1 terabit per second performance in HTTPS and on a relatively modest hardware configuration, setting a new standard for more energy- and cost-efficient video streaming’, said Nivedita Nouvel, vice president of product marketing at Broadpeak.

‘We’re proud of our collaboration with Intel and the massive improvements we’ve made in video streaming performance and energy efficiency since we’ve been working together’.

Broadpeak’s BkS450 stream offers a 72% improvement in throughput performance compared with the previous generation while consuming significantly less power than traditional video servers.

Broadpeak obtained this measurement using a sophisticated benchmark tool that measures hundreds of thousands of concurrent connections, demonstrating that BkS450 software is tested for realistic, high-concurrency traffic patterns.
