CENTRAL HALL If you are looking for ways to make fiber installs quicker and easier, then check out Joseph Electronics (Booth C1708) and the SHAXX-JBT Series. Built from the company's flagship SHAXX-TOTE, it enables broadcast cameras fitted with standard SMPTE 304M hybrid connectors to be deployed using ordinary single-mode fibers and installed into standard JBT enclosures typically found in outdoor and indoor stadium locations. The result is no need to install associated SMPTE copper wiring or to carry and store additional external camera accessories during events. The company says the SHAXX-JBT is the ideal remote camera solution with only a 2U rack height and a depth of 6 in., with recessed side power and fiber connections. It is available for various camera models, and Joseph Electronics also is showing products from Bluebell Opticom Ltd., DirectOut GmbH, and Videosys at its booth.
Shure (Booth C5525) has a busy booth, showing its new line of MoveMic Microphone System, which comprises wireless clip-on mics that leverage the company's technology to send two channels of broadcast-quality audio directly to a smartphone without requiring a receiver. Shure is also showcasing expansion of its SLX-D Digital Wireless family: the new SLX-D portable wireless system includes the SLXD5 portable digital wireless receiver and SLXD3 plug-on digital wireless transmitter. Another highlight is a demo of the WAVETOOL RF-management software, following the completed acquisition of Finland-based developer Ab Wavemark Oy late last year. Wavemark Commercial Director Timo Liski, now with Shure, showed how the software interfaces with Shure's existing Wireless Workbench software to provide audio engineers with a comprehensive set of tools to manage RF and monitor all audio sources throughout a production.
Clear-Com (Booth C6007) is highlighting its new cloud-managed Gen-IC virtual intercom enabling real-time partyline workflows without the need for intercom hardware. According to VP, Research and Development, Marco Lopez, the system is simple to deploy, configure, and manage and is scalable for both small and large teams while also providing a wide range of connectivity to existing onsite intercom systems. Gen-IC is securely available worldwide, he notes, over the public internet and cellular networks and backed by Clear-Com's pioneering experience and customer support.
Sony DWR-S03D portable slot-in receiver
Sony's (Booth C8201) DWR-S03D 2-channel portable slot-in receiver is part of the company's third-generation DWX series digital wireless microphone system that combines advanced digital technologies, analog-microphone expertise, and wireless-audio-transmission technologies. Andy Munitz, senior product manager, professional audio and pro video monitor, notes that the receiver operates with a bandwidth up to 148 MHz (depending on region), increasing the probability of finding unoccupied frequencies in congested metropolitan areas. The DWR-S03D can be mounted in the slot of Sony or other professional camcorders via the optional DWA-SLAS1 or DWA-SLAU1 interface adaptor. Automatic channel scan and sync permits quick, easy frequency setting, and the high-density 375-kHz-interval channel plan enables simultaneous multichannel operation.
The HawkNEST broadcast-asset-management server from Hawk-Eye has been unveiled on the Sony booth (C8101). The system can be added to any existing or future HawkREPLAY infrastructure and deployed to provide media-management staff with a dedicated workstation able to access and distribute HawkREPLAY-created clips from any networked HawkREPLAY server. Preproduction video files from networked third-party storage and/or direct-networked delivery of edited videos from NLE can also be exported to local HawkNEST server storage. According to Dan Cash, managing director, North America, the company sees opportunities for further growth in replay, and HawkNEST is an essential part of this: In order to be able to take over a whole truck and run replay through Hawk-Eye, you need NEST in there to move and orchestrate the files around. We knew we needed it, but we've expedited it into production because we're looking to aggressively grow replay.
Client-to-cloud-networking provider Arista Networks (Booth C2011) has a new network-observability offering. CloudVision Universal Network Observability is available as a premium-feature license on Arista CloudVision and enables automation of network, systems, and application/workload visibility, coupled with AI-driven proactive analysis and prescriptive recommendations. According to the company, the software significantly reduces human error, accelerates issue resolution for unforeseen events, and provides precise root-cause analysis of network events and their impact on application delivery. Our message at show is that we know media, says Technical Lead Albert Faust. The whole industry
