Aicox expands EITB Media’s storage capacity with high-performance SSD technology

At Aicox we continue to consolidate our position as a key partner in the digital transformation of the media. We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the contract for the expansion of the Mediagrid storage system at EITB Media’s Miramon headquarters, contributing to its migration plan to Ultra High Definition (UHD).

This project responds to the growing storage demand derived from the use of UHD content, which is four times larger than the HD format. The solution provided by Aicox will allow EITB to double its storage capacity by an additional 60 TB net with SSD technology, guaranteeing greater speed, reliability and lower latency in the management of audiovisual content.

What is Mediagrid and what advantages does it offer?

Harmonic’s Mediagrid is a scalable storage system designed specifically for video production and broadcast environments. Its distributed architecture enables the management of large volumes of data with high availability, optimized performance and low latency, making it ideal for real-time content editing and distribution.

Its main advantages include:

✅ High transfer speed thanks to its SSD-based technology, essential for UHD workflows.
✅ Modular scalability , allowing for capacity growth without interrupting operations.
✅ Seamless integration with existing production systems, minimizing adaptation times.
✅ Reduced file access time , improving efficiency in editing and post-production.

The expansion of the Mediagrid system will be carried out using technology from Harmonic, a manufacturer with which EITB already works, ensuring compatibility, optimal performance and maximum integration with current workflows.

In addition to supplying the equipment, Aicox will offer installation, commissioning and specialised technical support services over the coming years, ensuring the system’s operability and its evolution as EITB’s needs grow.

We are proud to continue providing innovative technological solutions to the Media & Broadcast sector and to accompany EITB on its path towards the future of UHD television.
