Built-in global roaming capabilities - The LU600 solution now offers a fully integrated hybrid roaming solution for hassle-free local and global operation. With the new dual-SIM modem configured with roaming SIMs, every LU600 can be a local and global unit without needing to replace or obtain local SIMs in over 100 countries worldwide. Combining three key elements - dual-SIMs, global modems and roaming software - the LiveU units are ready to roam instantly.
Video return - targeted for professional broadcasters, this other key product enhancement enables field crews to see what's currently on-air and receive teleprompt information during live sessions.
LiveU's flagship LU600 solution with the HEVC Pro card offers the ultimate video performance in live streaming for global newsgathering and beyond.
