The SDI standard continues to evolve with applications such as broadcasting and live events demanding higher bandwidth. SDI, or Serial Digital Interface, is widely adopted by the broadcasting industry and is used to transmit uncompressed, unencrypted digital video signals in TV studios and facilities. It’s also a trusted technology for live events for its rugged […]

Multiviewers have become a necessity in today’s AV industry. With the ability to display multiple video sources on a single display monitor, multiviewers have changed the way production and broadcast control rooms are designed and implemented. They may have gotten their start in control rooms along with production switchers, but have evolved helping engineers check […]

AV over IP, a.k.a. Audiovisual over Internet Protocol, a.k.a. networked AV, is today’s state-of-the-art method of delivering audio and video signals. AVoIP provides the ultimate in scalability and flexibility. As typical matrix switch systems limit you with a fixed number of inputs and outputs, AVoIP growth is managed simply by adding new transmitters, receivers, or […]

Traditional auto-tracking cameras need two cameras integrated within the same unit to function. They are typically PTZ cameras, or pan-tilt-zoom cameras, consisting of motors and other components to adjust the lens and camera positioning. Advanced firmware is also needed to communicate its control signals. This all adds cost and complexity, with a quality auto-tracking camera […]

HDMI extenders help where HDMI cables are lacking—distance. HDMI cables only reach 50 feet before signal deterioration settles in. If you've ever experienced your display pixelating, lagging, even with total picture loss, a common fix is an HDMI extender. An HDMI extender is a point-to-point device that does exactly what its name implies: it extends […]

Live streams can be produced with a single camera or multiple cameras, the latter providing different angles. When you begin working with two or more cameras, it’s a good idea to get the help of a video switch. A video switch, or video mixer, brings in multiple audio/video feeds (e.g., PTZ cameras, presentation slides) and […]
