nextcomputingCompany News

NextComputing, provider of compact, ultra-high-performance computing solutions, announced today the release of an immensely capable portable workstation, designed specifically for the broadcast and digital media industries.

The Radius Live retains all of the impressive features of NextComputing’s Radius series of portable workstations, but adds industry-specific capabilities such as a 5.25″ device bay, minimized acoustics, and increased storage availability. This new media application workstation is ideally suited for purposes such as real-time graphics, event production, presentation capture, video editing, and on-set data management.

“As we’ve grown our business in the media and entertainment market, we’ve listened to our customers and evolved our product line to meet their needs,” says Aaron Sherman, Manager of Media & Entertainment for NextComputing. “This led us to create the Radius Live for our customers with demanding broadcast applications. We are very excited about this product and expect an enthusiastic response from the industry.”

Users can take advantage of Radius Live’s small size to maximize space in remote production settings, or even take it on-set for live recording and production. It is no longer necessary to utilize large systems or an array of different hardware to achieve maximum performance. Radius Live provides all of the advantages of much bigger systems in a smaller package.

Some of the best-in-class features of the Radius Live include:

  • 5.25″ device bay to house accessories like LTO tape drives, removable SSD carriers, camera card readers, and additional hard drives
  • Low-noise fans and a quiet power supply for minimized acoustics in production environments
  • Integrated 17.3″ full HD (1920×1080) display with resistive touchscreen option
  • Up to 7 PCIe expansion slots for advanced graphics cards such as the NVIDIA Quadro® GPU
