Euro Media Group invests for the future with LDX RF camera technology

Euro Media Group (EMG) has chosen 4K UHD RF cameras from Grass Valley to capture premier sports and live event coverage around the globe.

The cameras will form part of EMG’s upgraded, RF high-speed wireless solution. EMG has deployed lightweight Grass Valley LDX 86N4K HDR RF camera heads to optimise its existing RF wireless offering for 4K UHD.

It is claimed to be the industry’s only wireless, shoulder-mounted 4K RF head, offering EMG a single solution for transmitting HD, 4K and HiSpeed HD over the same link.

Ronald Meyvisch, chief technology officer, EMG commented: “We’ve developed unique wireless solutions to provide our clients with the best coverage of their projects, and we always aim to deliver the highest frame rate possible with the highest quality imagery. 

“To complement our UHD wireless technology, we were looking for a lightweight, robust and native 4K HDR RF camera. We have been a Grass Valley customer for many years – we had full confidence that they could meet our requirements for this project.

“The new LDX 86N4K RF camera head was perfect for what we needed. With no compromise on image quality, we have the agility we need to successfully operate in an RF broadcast environment. Grass Valley has consistently worked hard to address today’s market challenges head on, making them the perfect technology partner for us.”
