Unleashing the AMD Alveo™ MA35D Media Accelerator
The AMD Alveo™ MA35D Media Accelerator, our first media accelerator based on ASIC architecture delivering AI-enabled video processing to cost-effectively scale a new class of media services.
High Density ASIC Architecture
High Channel Density ASIC Architecture
The AMD Alveo MA35D Media Accelerator is powered by an ASIC-based video processing unit built from the ground up for high-density, ultra-low latency streaming. Each device (2x per card) features four discrete encoder engines, enabling multiple standards concurrently and provides streaming providers the flexibility to scale to new and legacy endpoints. The architecture is optimized for area, power, and cost-per-channel and can be configured to balance compression efficiency, channel density, and latency based on application requirements.
Optimal Video Quality with AI Processing
Because network bandwidth can be a leading cost driver for live streaming, the Alveo MA35D media accelerator card integrates an AI-powered video pipeline to ensure the quality of experience in any network condition. The platform delivers world-class H.264, H.265, and AV1 compression1 coupled with AI processing and dedicated VQ engines for bandwidth efficiency at optimal video quality.
High Availability Services
Enabling a new class of linear, ABR, and interactive services
High Density Cost-Effective Scaling
With a silicon architecture optimized to lower cost on all fronts, the Alveo MA35D media accelerator reduces cost-per-stream to maximize profit-per-user
