GV STRATUS, EDIUS and K2 Summit servers offer flexibility as Canal Judicial expands its news programming

MONTREAL, February 27, 2018 — Canal Judicial provides viewers in Mexico with a firsthand look at the news from the country's Supreme Court. With dozens of live cases and educational programs being broadcast each day, the channel needed solutions that could expand with its growing content demands. GV STRATUS Video Production and Content Management Systems, EDIUS Workgroup 8 Nonlinear Editing Software, K2 10G RAID Storage systems and K2 Summit 3G Transmission Clients from Grass Valley, a Belden Brand, will efficiently manage Canal Judicial's current and future production workflows.

GV STRATUS Express and GV STRATUS Elite HR help the network keep up with its fast-paced judicial programming and manage multiple news production workflows quickly and efficiently since users can tailor the solution's production tools based on function.
