ProMAX has developed the Pro-Cache and Power-Cache systems since acquiring Cache-A Corporation last summer. The archive appliances feature technology upgrades and improvements delivering performance boosts for increased system speed, responsiveness and reliability. In alignment with its worldwide channel of reseller partners and distributors, the company is offering a trade-in promotion for existing Cache-A customers to upgrade to the Pro-Cache and Power-Cache models, which both feature brand new chassis designs.

As soon as Cache-A became a ProMAX product line, we took action to address the most urgent needs of customers,” notes Jess Hartmann, CEO, ProMAX.

The ProMAX Pro-Cache features a quad-core CPU with Turbo Boost to 3.1 GHz to increase system speed and responsiveness. A dedicated PCI SSD system disk provides reliability and a massive performance boost to OS and archive database operations (up to 4x faster than previous systems). The Pro-Cache’s expanded network connectivity includes 4 x 1GbE network controllers accompanied by a 10GbE network performance boost that makes it up to 2x faster than previous systems. The redesigned chassis is more robust and serviceable and features an all new component cooling system to complement the appliance’s upgraded power supply.

The ProMAX Power-Cache also features the same upgrades of the quad-core CPU with Turbo Boost to 3.1GHz, the addition of a dedicated PCI SSD system disk, and performance boosts to OS and archive database operations to amplify the appliance’s speed, performance and reliability. And the 10GbE network performance boost will make the Power-Cache up to 2x faster than previous systems. It which has been designed as an enterprise device, has its own all 2RU rack mount chassis and features a cooling system, upgraded component cabling, and dual redundant power supplies. The system’s onboard RAID is up to 16TB with room for an optional onboard LTO-6 or LTO-5 drive.

Since introducing Platform Portable at IBC, ProMAX is shipping the distinctive mobile workflow server that lets creative groups connect their existing drives and attached storage devices to transform them into a shared editing environment.

Platform Portable’s capabilities present opportunities for smaller workgroups to improve their content creation processes. Designed for groups of up to 6 users, it’s video optimized shared workflow solution that offers an accessible ‘bridge’ in moving from attached storage into robust shared storage. Portable can be configured with an optional, built-in 2TB SSD storage module featuring 2 x 1TB drives in RAID-0 for fast access to media. The Portable base configuration has an MSRP of around $5,995, before options for expanded network connectivity, transcoding, or onboard storage are added. There are no per seat licensing costs.

The Platform Portable answers the call for a truly mobile shared editing system that travels from studio to locations and back. At 18″ x 12″ x 2.5″ and 10.75 pounds, it’s lightweight and small enough to take by plane or car to any shoot location. With handles integrated into the chassis design and a shock absorbent, protective travel bag, it’s purpose built to withstand the demands of being transported to and performing in outdoor environments.
