SX-3000 Standalone IMB®As the industry’s first standalone IMB, the SX-3000 Standalone Integrated Media Block® (SX-3000 IMB) sets the standard for simple and hassle-free digital cinema solutions.

To complete GDC’s IMB solution, GDC’s Portable Storage, Enterprise Storage and the new Enterprise Storage Plus, are dedicated storage devices designed to work for a long time (optional 10 year warranty is available) with the SX-3000 IMB. The Enterprise Storage devices provide large storage options of up to 8TB of redundant hot swappable storage, which can store approximately 76 movies. The new Enterprise Storage Plus retains all power features of Enterprise Storage plus a built-in CRU port for faster content ingestion.
CLA-2000 Content Library AdapterThe new CLA-2000 Content Library Adapter (CLA-2000) is a highly reliable content ingest and backup solution that simplifies theatre operations.
