NetFlight™ is a groundbreaking product poised to revolutionize data transport and storage access for motion picture and television post-production. NetFlight™ utilizes a proprietary WAN Transfer Protocol (RWTP) that enables greater degrees of inter-facility collaboration than ever before. It allows customers to move data at previously unheard-of speeds, accelerating workflows and eliminating file transfer bottlenecks.
NetFlight™ facilitates high speed file transfers between sites via 1 or 10 gigabit links. NetFlight™ ensures 100% error-free data transfer at stable data rates in excess of 325MB/sec over long distance connections that often exhibit high latency or packet loss. NetFlight™ removes traditional bottlenecks related to protocol and latency; the only limitations are storage and network bandwidth constraints.
NetFlight™ revolutionizes existing workflows by moving files eight to ten times faster than existing data transfer technology. Using a 10 GigE network over a 20,000 kilometer link, it could take nearly 4 days to transfer 10,000 2K DPX files (125GB of data) with traditional FTP methods. Using NetFlight™, the same transfer could take less than 7 minutes. NetFlight™ supports several existing SAN, DAS, and NAS filesystems and storage devices already in use. NetFlight™ provides fast, easy, reliable transfer of all file types over high-speed network connections.
As the need for high-speed global collaboration between multiple points along the creative and technical pipeline grows, NetFlight™ presents solutions to critical challenges by enabling rapid movement of uncompressed data. NetFlight™ maximizes staff productivity and enables faster project completion by reducing the time required to transfer data between storage pools. In addition to time savings, NetFlight™ makes LAN, MAN, or WAN data transfer reliable and predictable. NetFlight™ is designed to specifically meet the most demanding needs of media professionals, addressing the problems associated with long-distance transport of huge volumes of full resolution media data.
