The next-generation VersaFrame VF-9100 fiber transport platform will be introduced to international clientele by MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems in one month at IBC2026, bringing a redesigned hardware architecture that expands expanded processing capacity.
The newest version of the MultiDyne product also features native RESTful API support, offering integration with modern network management and facility control systems.
“Engineers can now automate monitoring, configuration and diagnostics through a unified interface, making the platform an ideal fit for software-defined production environments and IP-based media infrastructures,” the company says.
MultiDyne Director of Strategic Accounts and Products Jesse Foster adds, “We’ve modernized the platform to better support the way broadcasters and production professionals build facilities today, adding RESTful API integration while expanding the platform with new modular cards for audio, serial data and timing applications. Customers gain a more flexible infrastructure that is easier to deploy, manage and scale as their workflows evolve.”
The platform also introduces an expanding family of modular I/O cards, including new modules for audio, serial data and combined genlock/timecode synchronization.
Unlike previous multiplexed architectures, the VF-9100’s flexible per-fiber connectivity allows engineers to configure individual signal paths without requiring multiplexing, simplifying installation while providing greater deployment flexibility across broadcast, production and professional AV environments.
Additional hardware enhancements include improved card guides for easier servicing, higher-capacity internal power supplies for future module expansion, and enhanced rack-mount options that simplify deployment in mobile production trucks, flypacks and fixed facilities. Like its predecessor, the VF-9100 continues to support high-density signal transport, carrying up to 18 signals over a single fiber—or 36 signals in dual fiber configurations—while maintaining compatibility across SDI and IP workflows.
Sebastian Mucha, Executive Vice President of Sales & Strategy at MultiDyne, notes that the VF-9100 boasts a modern architecture designed for the next generation of broadcast and professional media. “Native RESTful API support, expanded modularity and flexible per-fiber connectivity allow customers to automate operations, simplify deployment and prepare their facilities for the continued convergence of broadcast, IP media transport and data-centric workflows,” he says.
IBC2026 takes place September 11-14 at the RAI Amsterdam Convention Center.
