April 28, 2014 (Pittsburgh)

NEP's The Wall is the recipient of one of the industry's most prestigious technology honors, NewBay Media's Best of Show Award, presented at the 2014 NAB Show in Las Vegas by TV Technology magazine.

NewBay Media's Best of Show Awards are evaluated by a panel of engineers and industry experts, and are selected based on innovation, feature set, cost efficiency and performance in serving the industry.

The winners will be featured in TV Technology, read by thousands of broadcast professionals in the United States, around the world and online. TV Technology is the industrys leading magazine for technology news and reviews and is celebrating its 30th year covering the television industry.

Only a small number of products were chosen for NewBay Media's Best of Show Award from among hundreds of new products in competition.

The Wall is a new app for the Apple iPad that enables fast and easy configuration of complex monitor walls in NEP's mobile production units. Developed by NEP Labs, this new app greatly reduces the time it takes to configure monitor walls and provides a unique and valuable tool to production teams.

We are enormously proud of our Best of Show recipients, says NewBay Media Broadcast & Video Group Vice President & Group Publisher Eric Trabb. Recognition with an award at the NAB Show from NewBay Media's Broadcast & Video Group is a strong vote of confidence and admiration from our leading industry publications.

With The WallTM, any user can configure monitor walls with drag-and-drop selection from a variety of monitor layouts and any of the available video sources. It offers several easy and quick tools that allow users to customize almost every detail - such as border styles, colors, and tally views. A swap tool enables the user to rapidly swap video sources as well as whole screen layouts, with instant reconfiguration of the screen if the number of sources has increased or decreased in the swap. When finished, users can save screen configurations and recall them at the touch of a button in any NEP Mobile Unit enabled with The WallTM.

Through connection with a server that controls the multiviewers on the trucks, configurations built into The WallTM are automatically populated to the monitor walls in real time. Users can also work with the tool offline before they arrive on site, and then log on when they arrive at the mobile unit to instantly set up the monitor walls with the new configurations. The WallTM is completely multiviewer-agnostic and provides seamless connectivity with all major manufacturers' systems.

Everyone at NEP was excited to show The Wall at NAB, says George Hoover, chief technology officer, NEP. We all believe that it will be revolutionary for workflow on remote productions - and to have it recognized as one of the most innovative products at this year's show by one one of the leading publications in the industry was truly an honor.
