Cobalt Digitals New IP Focused Products Gain Recognition...

Cobalt Digital, the leading designer and manufacturer of award-winning edge devices for live video production and master control, and a founding partner in the openGear initiative brought innovative solutions to IBC designed to streamline a path to IP and was rewarded with two Best of Show awards from Future Publications. The two winners were tapped as exceptional standouts in Cobalt's stand that was crowded with ground-breaking, IP focused products. The COBALT UltraBlue IP-MV multiviewer won Best of Show in the TVB Europe category, and the Company's INDIGO OG-2110-BIDI-GATEWAY took home the same honor in the TV Tech category.

The awards recognise the very best media & broadcast technology products and solutions on display at IBC2024, with hundreds of products and solutions considered. All entries were reviewed by a panel of industry experts and editors at the RAI. Factors taken into account include how diverse and comprehensive the product's features are; how easy it is to use and how it integrates with other products; how well it solves a problem for the user; and how innovative and unique it is within the market.

The new COBALT UltraBlue IP-MV multiviewer easily meets the criteria for a winner. The multiviewer can be provided as a turnkey solution with four HDMI heads, or as a software package to run on customer-supplied dedicated hardware, delivering maximum flexibility. Features include support for receiving audio/video content over IP across a variety of protocols and formats with very flexible audio routing, bringing a multitude of options to suit every application.

Winner in the TV Tech category and a member of the Company's INDIGO platform, the COBALT INDIGO OG-2110-BIDI4-GATEWAY has native SMPTE ST 2110 support in an openGear format card with dual 25G Ethernet interfaces for ST 2022-7 support. The card is a bi-directional quad channel native ST 2110 interface to SDI I/O, and the transmit and receive paths of the gateway can operate simultaneously. The INDIGO OG-2110-BIDI4-GATEWAY also includes support for IS-04/IS-05 NMOS for automatic discovery and configuration.

We are so grateful to both TVB Europe and TV Tech for these enormous honors, said Suzana Brady, svp of worldwide sales and marketing for Cobalt Digital. Our products are all developed to accommodate the requirements of our customers, and IP is a predominant factor during all our conversations, so we know we hit the mark with our lineup. But it is also reassuring to know that the journalists and judges that review and evaluate all the new technology in the industry acknowledged our products as some of the best on the entire show floor.

The awards' editorial team have said that IBC2024 has been busier than ever this year, with over 1,300 companies showcasing their latest innovations. Our awards followed suit with this popularity and more were entered than ever before . They continued to say judging and winner selections were extremely difficult this year, feedback from our judges confirmed that the standard across the board was incredible. To all those companies who have won, you can be truly proud of your company's achievements in standing out amongst the crowd at IBC2024 .
