Masterpiece IP Master Control Switcher

Products ▸ Playout ▸ Master Control & Branding ▸ Masterpiece IP Master Control Switcher ▾

Building on our world firsts in deploying IP solutions technologies we are introducing Masterpiece IP, which is a new market-defining master control switcher for the IP environment.

Many broadcasters and media organizations have taken the step forward and embraced new IP infrastructures into their production workflows. More are looking to work with real-time audio and video transport over 10 GbE, 40 GbE and 100 GbE IP networks. Several real-time protocols such as uncompressed SMPTE ST 2022-6, SMPTE ST 2022-7 and VSF TR03/SMPTE ST 2110 now exists to stream and enable intra operability between equipment supporting the master control and playout operations.
