Granite 5000 Server
The Granite Server runs Windows XP for Embedded, Service Pack 3, and comes pre-installed with the appropriate
software. The server runs the BPSwitcher application, which is necessary to operate the system with all its features.
(Applications from vendors other than Broadcast Pix should not be added to the system, unless approved by
Broadcast Pix, or they will hurt system performance and invalidate the warranty.)
