The SVG Europe and SVG Americas teams are onsite in Amsterdam for IBC 2024. As the production and broadcast industry gathers to launch new products and reconnect, the SVG team is out in force in the exhibition halls of the RAI to gather and share the latest news with the SVG community. You'll find all the key announcements and news here with daily updates through Monday.
Today's issue features Arista Networks, Arqiva, Astro Design, Audinate, Black Box, Bridge Technologies, Broadcast Solutions, BT Media & Broadcast, Cerberus Tech, Clear-Com, Cobalt Digital, EditShare, Evertz, Fonn Group, Grabyo, Harmonic, Intelsat, Lama, Matrox Video, Media Links, Perfect Memory, Perifery, Roe, RT Software, Sencore, Sennheiser, Solid State Logic, Techex, Telestream, Telos Alliance, Telstra, Wohler.
Arista Networks (Stand 10.A25) is on hand at IBC with products and a technology that is increasingly critical: switching infrastructures. The company, says Albert Faust, media technology expert, Arista Networks,is seeing more and more use of 800 Gig for large-scale infrastructures. We don't have cameras or devices running at 800 Gig, he notes, but we are seeing things like what would traditionally be a 25,000 25,000 router being brought into play. We are also seeing smaller, fanless routing for things like audio. So we are continuing to broaden our product line. Faust also sees AI playing a role in Arista switching technology, most notably for things like security - by being able to detect nefarious activity on the switch by identifying odd connections (like a Polycom in North America to something in North Korea) - and risk validation. When you have a large and complex network, relying on one person to make all the right configurations is hard. With AI, you can stop the conversation between two switches and make sure the operator wants to make the change. That protects the technician.
Arqiva (Stand 8.M26) and Techex (Stand 3.B44) have revealed a partnership to offer seamless distribution of live event content from any source to any destination globally. The agreement, combining Arqiva's managed services and live IP software solutions from Techex, aims to remove the complexities associated with distributing live content across multiple destinations and multiple distribution workflows. Designed with both flexibility and scalability in mind, the collaboration will deliver enhancements on Arqiva's existing Arqade offering, removing the need for large capex investment while providing access to Arqiva's 24/7 network oversight.
Astro Design (Stand 9.A11) is worth a stop for attendees seeking the ultimate in image extraction. The company is coupling its AB-4815 8K 120-Hz portable camera with the IP-4042 Realtime ROI Extractor. The extractor can pull four 1920x1080p cutouts simultaneously from an 8K image, and the extraction movements can be programmed to match the speed and touch of how a dedicated human operator would move or pan. It also can detect up to 50 people for extraction. According to Furuta Ryoji, executive officer, international sales, Astro Design, the system will be available next year.
Audinate (Stand 8.A95) is showcasing Dante Connect, its cloud-based audio-broadcast solution, in which multiple products work together for sports-broadcasting applications. A suite of software applications, Dante Connect facilitates cloud-based broadcast production and is a powerful platform for A1s and mixing engineers. For sports broadcasters, says Audinate Principal Product Manager Jim Kidwell, there's a lot of flexibility, especially for remote working. You can have a team based in one location and just send a flypack to an event. If you do it right, you can get cost savings as well.
Black Box (Stand 10.C23) is spotlighting its Emerald Unified KVM-over-IP products built to offer secure, flexible, and scalable workflows with low IP bandwidth usage. Emerald devices facilitate easy integration with H.264/265 video feeds, media controllers, automation systems, and other systems and provide access to physical servers, the public and private cloud with PCoIP Ultra support, and collaborative virtual-machine (VM) sharing. Also on the stand, the company is presenting other features of the Emerald portfolio, including Emerald DESKVUE, Emerald DESKVUE PE, and Emerald AV WALL.
Bridge Technologies (Stand 1.A71) is demonstrating the recent integration of Cromorama's leading colour-management system Orion-Convert into Bridge's ST 2110 production probe, the VB440. According to the company, the integration will make it easier for broadcasters to ensure that their live sports productions maintain a consistent grade in both HDR and SDR, across all cameras in a single production or event. Another demo of interest to sports broadcasters features the VB440 and its range of production-monitoring features, which have been extended to include monitoring of ST 2110-31 and -41 sADM, enabling effective transmission of immersive audio in live, uncompressed production environments. The new capability follows on from incorporation of monitoring for Dolby's full set of audio standards including Atmos.
Alongside a new OB truck for the Swiss Broadcasting Corp. and a radio truck for a Lithuanian broadcaster, systems integrator Broadcast Solutions (Stand O.A23) is discussing a new ST 2110 remote facility built for producing coverage of Danish Superliga football. Housed in a shopping mall in Copenhagen, the facility is part of the league's move to produce all its 800 matches per year in-house. To do this, it partnered with DMC Production to form broadcast arm Matchday Production. Built around the Grass Valley Kahuna switcher, the facility houses four large-scale contro
