Designed and built by Studio Network Solutions, the Signature Series has been designed exclusively for Ross Video and is fully qualified against our graphics, workflow, asset management, replay, and playout solutions.

Designed for Performance

EVO supports the most demanding video – such as 6K, 4K, 10-bit uncompressed HD, and stereoscopic 3D – over 10GbE Ethernet or Fibre Channel.

Flexible I/O

Choose from 1G, or 10G available in both copper and optical (SFP) in most configurations, to match your network and application needs.

Expansion Ready

Storage that grows with you. The EVO 8, 16, and nearline platforms are easily expandable with the addition of expansion chassis that can be added at any time.

Share Everything

With an SNS EVO shared media storage server, you can connect and share everything. You’ll spend less and still get better performance.

Intuitive Operations

Simple to setup and configure and can be used as either NAS or SAN based storage.

Fully Qualified

The EVO Signature Series is fully qualified against our XPression, Streamline, and Abekas product lines in multiple configurations and topologies to ensure consistent performance for your live productions.

Features

Built For Digital And Live Media Workflows

With EVO, you can connect and share everything — you’ll spend less and still get better performance. EVO is purpose-built for digital and live media workflows, integrating seamlessly with Ross XPression, Abekas Replay and Playout, and Streamline MAM solutions and providing the horsepower needed to drive your live productions.

Highly Collaborative

EVO enables your whole crew to share a high-performance, consolidated storage system. Everyone can participate in the workflow for a truly collaborative experience.
