Lowell, MA, April 13, 2015 M/A-COM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. ( MACOM ), a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for broadcast video infrastructure, announced today that Blackmagic Design, a leading manufacturer of broadcast and post production equipment, is utilizing their 12G-SDI equalizer with reclocker and crosspoint solution for the latest upgrade to the Videohub Routing and Distribution product line.

As the broadcast industry evolves, 4k60p is the next format of choice. Supporting this with a routing solution that can efficiently handle single link 12G-SDI is the next logical step for tomorrow's infrastructure, said Grant Petty, Chief Executive Officer, Blackmagic Design. Our Videohub routing platform now allows the studio to incorporate 4K into the workflow with a minimal footprint and attractive price point.

When we first announced the availability of our 12G-SDI chipset in April 2014, we sought to enable the broadcast market to extend the success of SDI technology to 4K, said Hasnain Bajwa, Senior Vice President and General Manager, High-Performance Analog, MACOM. We have a long history of partnership with Blackmagic Design and are very proud to support their next generation routing and distribution platform.
