IBC Preview: Remote Broadcast and Media Production Workflow Gains

0

A new offering from Dejero will be unveiled at the upcoming IBC 2024 conference in Amsterdam, and it simultaneously blends together multiple broadband and fiber wired lines with wireless IP connections from multiple providers to form a virtual “network of networks” for users — something viewed as a plus for broadcast and media production workflows.


It marks an upgrade for the Smart Blending Technology, Dejero says.

Built into its EnGo 3x 5G mobile video transmitter with GateWay mode and its new GateWay 3220 network aggregation device (both showcasing at IBC), the Smart Blending Technology features an updated algorithm renders a connection even more stable.

This is done in all latency settings, so that users can now transmit high-quality live video with glass-to-glass latency as low as 0.5 seconds over bonded cellular.

This gives remote broadcast and production teams uninterrupted access to stable, reliable internet from anywhere.

The EnGo 3x native 5G mobile video transmitter with multicam and GateWay mode is a two-in-one device leverages network aggregation technology to provide news and production teams with access to stable, reliable internet connectivity.

Using EnGo 3x with GateWay Mode, remote crews can broadcast breaking news, quickly transfer files to prepare and upload packages while in the field, and set up high-bandwidth access points for multiple devices.

Dejero notes, “This wireless broadband internet connectivity increases capacity for data-intensive applications such as newsroom systems or editing tools; it creates broader coverage areas; and enhances reliability through connection diversity. It also supports virtual private network (VPN) tunneling for secure access to an organization’s networks, alleviating increasing concerns about data protection.”

The company’s Director of Product Management, Matt Scully, comments, “In these times of mass news and media consumption on social media and news websites, speed is as important as accuracy in journalism. Establishing an ultra-reliable connection path between the studio and field to streamline communications, hit tight deadlines, and boost productivity is vital.”

The EnGo 3x transmits up to four fully frame-synced HD feeds from a single unit, so users can create dynamic productions at a fraction of the cost.

Meanwhile, Dejero is preparing for the IBC debut of its new GateWay 3220, described as “a resilient and compact network aggregation device powered by Dell Technologies” that integrates Dejero Smart Blending Technology for more robust mobile connectivity.

Scully adds, “Access to reliable, resilient internet in the field is essential – whether you’re looking to produce more news stories for your traditional and digital platforms, access newsroom systems, do additional research for a story, or remotely send in edited packages.”

IBC will also see Dejero’s new Linux-based virtual WayPoint receiver. Designed to serve as the foundation for all Cloud base IP formats, it currently supports RTMP and RTMPS formats, imminently followed by support for NDI and SRT.


Dejero will be located at IBC in Hall 2, Stand B09.
