press release

Fujikura Ltd. (Director, President and CEO: Masahiko Ito) and intoPIX SA. (CEO and Technology Director: Gaël Rouvroy) will jointly exhibit at MWC (Mobile World Congress) Barcelona 2022, the largest exhibition in the mobile industry to be held in Spain. At this exhibition, they will combine Fujikura's 60 GHz mmWave Wireless Communications Module with intoPIX's low latency JPEG-XS ^*1 codec: TicoXS to demonstrate a live demonstration of high-definition, visually lossless and ultra-low latency real-time 4K video transmission over a license-free 60GHz wireless communication line.

Messages from the development managers of both companies:
"Low-latency wireless video transmission provides innovative solutions for a wide range of industries. Fujikura's 60 GHz band communications module makes it possible to deploy high-speed, low-latency communications networks at the same level as Optcal Fiber at low cost. Furthermore, by combining it with intoPIX's high-performance TicoXS IP core, such innovative solutions will become possible." (Kenji Nishide, General Manager of Fujikura's Electronic Application Technology R&D Center)
"intoPIX's lightweight video compression technology delivers microsecond-level latency, conceals transmission path errors, and provides lossless quality for HD, 4K, and even 8K video transmission, delivering excellent results in applications where latency is important. Fujikura's cutting-edge 60 GHz communications module is a product that can provide the optimal wireless connection environment for such high-definition video." (Jean-Baptiste Lorent, Marketing and Sales Director, intoPIX)

The live demo will be held at the following booths at MWC Barcelona, which will be held from February 28th to March 3rd, 2022:
Hall 1 1F14 Booth (Fujikura)
Hall 7 Booth 7G51 (intoPIX)
If you are at the venue, please be sure to stop by both companies' booths.
