MultiDyne In Dubai for First CABSAT Exhibition

MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems is bringing its latest innovations for the global broadcast and production community to the UAE between May 21 and May 23, as the CABSAT 2024 event wrapped up its first day Tuesday at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

In Dubai, MultiDyne has its own stand (S2-M45) — a first — as MultiDyne’s presence “reflects its efforts to raise visibility in every part of the world through trade show exhibitions, channel partnerships and more. That includes the Middle East and North Africa region, where fiber-optic networking and sports production represent two quickly growing business opportunities in the region.”

MultiDyne will emphasize its latest innovations along with flagship product lines that address IP convergence, field fiber transport and audio/video conversion among other signal management requirements.

MultiDyne also will bring its flagship SilverBack Series of fiber camera adapters, addressing the growing regional interest in using digital cinema cameras for broadcast production workflows. The SilverBack Series enables content producers to convert digital cinema cameras into SMPTE studio cameras for live multi-camera production. SilverBack fiber camera adapters are lightweight “cameraback” systems ideal for lTV productions and sports. The series is vendor-agnostic and engineered to adapt the user’s camera of choice. The demo will include connectivity of the SilverBack-VB and other models to the SilverBack APE for remote power extension of 24VDC digital cinema cameras.

MultiDyne is also introducing its latest NanoBrix Series of miniature signal processing solutions, including a new 12G to HDMI converter introduced at NAB last month. The new NB2-12G-HDMI provides a way for broadcast engineers to monitor 5.1 audio streams and downmix the surround signal to 2.0 stereo audio by accepting a 12G 4K SDI signal and converting it to HDMI for live confidence monitoring. The NB2-SDI-HDMI is also available with a single-channel fiber input and can regenerate the incoming signal for daisy-chained monitors.

Further, MultiDyne will demonstrate how its MDoG Series of openGear solutions helps customers build stronger bridges between the SDI and IP worlds. Introduced at the 2024 NAB Show in April, the series offers SMPTE ST 2110 network interface and low-latency JPEG-XS codec modules.
