Oser Founder Broadcasters Show Daily Wednesday, April 10, 2019 4 OWC Mercury Elite Pro Mini Delivers USB-C Performance in a Portable Package OWC recently unveiled its 2019 family of Mercury Elite Pro Mini storage solu- tions. Perfect for client meetings, studio sessions and on-set downloads, the OWC Mercury Elite Pro mini USB-C with full Thunderbolt™ 3 compatibility is a pow- erhouse of data transfer and storage. The new Mercury Elite Pro mini with USB-C is engineered to keep pace with production schedules, from the studio to the office and everywhere in between. With bus-powered plug-and-play connec- tivity, users can ditch those adapters and grab, share and present works in progress. "The Mercury Elite Pro family of storage solutions has been a favorite with our music, video and creative profession- al enthusiasts for many years, and it just keeps getting better," said Larry O'Connor, OWC Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "When data is your livelihood, there's nothing better in life than a rugged, blazing fast hard drive or SSD, and frankly there's just about no other hard drive out there that's better or more versatile than this one." Choose from either a 2.5-inch Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive or a Solid State Drive (SSD) design – both with a heat- dissipating, fanless design – these drives were designed for any professional appli- cation where cool, super-quiet operation and blinding- ly fast per- formance is required. The Pro mini offers eSATA and USB-C connection options, delivering up to 540MB/s transfer speeds with models offering up to 4TB storage capacity. Enclosed in sleek, impact-resistant brushed aluminum, it's lightweight and compact, so it easily goes anywhere. The Mercury Elite Pro Mini is bus-powered for the ultimate in simplicity and comes with a 3-year OWC limited warranty. The Mercury Elite Pro mini USB-C is available at www.macsales.com start- ing at less than $100. For more information, visit booth #C3647. Anywave Moves LPTV Technology to 21st Century The low power television and translator market has typically worked with low budgets and tight margins. Cost-con- scious decisions and frugal investments were the name of the game. Equipment purchases were routinely based on low initial capital investment versus design features, benefits and product efficiency. Anywave introduces a new range of Low Power Transmitters called the Slate Series. This new series of transmitters, at unparalleled prices, have power ranges from 60W to 600W, and feature the most efficient RF transistor available today for UHF broadcast amplification. The BLF888E is a standard among high power transmitters, saving stations tens of thousands of dollars in HVAC and electricity costs. Now the same efficien- cy and proportionally the same savings are available to LPTV and translator sta- tion owners. What this means is if a translator organization operates seven translators, each operating at 100W power output, and operates year-round, the savings would be in excess of $4000/year. As a percentage of the cost of one translator this is a signifi- cant savings. The same savings are possi- ble with just one 600W system. In addition to the use of the BLF888E broadband transistor, Anywave has also enhanced reliability with the use of graphene technology. Graphene heat conductivity is four times that of copper Continued on Page 25
