Bringing filmic, full-frame imagery to live broadcast workflows worldwide, RED’s Cine-Broadcast Module supports live broadcasting of up to two channels of 4K60P (HDR/SDR) via 12G-SDI and IP broadcasting compliant with SMPTE ST 2110 (TR-08) and up to a 4K60P JPEG XS feed. It features a robust Lemo SMPTE 311M/304M hybrid fibre optical cable connector linked to a rack-mountable 2U full rack or 4U half rack base station. The module further expands workflows with advanced slow motion, AI/ML enhancements, and real-time 8K 120fps R3D streaming through the RED Connect licence-enabled feature.
Visitors to the company’s stand at IBC will see the advanced Broadcast Color pipeline, which facilitates live painting of RED cameras in broadcast or streaming environments and allows for on-demand adjustments and multi-camera colour matching using traditional broadcast controls. This latest functionality comes in a firmware update for RED’s V-Raptor XL and V- Raptor cameras and utilises industry-standard RCPs to control painting parameters in real time over IP, while saving information per frame in the recorded file’s metadata.
New this year, RED will showcase the Cine-Broadcast Module’s integration with EVS’ XT-Via live production server, which allows broadcasters to enhance their workflows with up to 4x super-slow-motion at 4K and 8x at 1080p, while simultaneously delivering two baseband channels. This capability is powered by RED’s licence-enabled RED Connect feature, which allows IP live streaming of R3Ds and unlocks advanced workflows, including real-time AI/ML augmentation and live-to-headset using 8K 120FPS R3Ds.
The Cine Broadcast Module has recently been deployed on events broadcast by CBS Sports, NBC Sports Group and MotoAmerica.
“The evolution of RED’s Cine-Broadcast solution is redefining creative flexibility in live production,” said Jeff Goodman, vice president of product management. “Producers can now harness the visual power of large-format, cinematic storytelling within live content workflows—without sacrificing speed, reliability or standards compliance. It’s a seamless addition to the traditional broadcast ecosystem, offering a suite of advanced IP-based solutions within a single, integrated product. Whether it’s for sports, concerts, or live events, the Cine-Broadcast system opens new creative possibilities for productions around the world.”
IBC attendees will also be able to see the all-new RED V- Raptor [X] and Komodo-X with Nikon’s premier Z Mount. The RED V- Raptor [X] features low-light performance, dynamic range, resolution, high frame rates and an 8K VV global shutter large-format sensor. Komodo-X features a 6K S35 global shutter sensor and frame rates at 6K 80P and 4K 120P, all in a form factor measuring only 4x4x5in and 2.6lbs.
The Z Mount offers flexibility in lens selection and provides a comprehensive capture solution—from lens to sensor to codec. With a shallower flange depth and a wider diameter, it supports lens designs with higher sharpness and superior aberration control. The Z lens delivers unrivalled low-light performance and edge-to-edge detail, as well as autofocus performance on both the V- Raptor [X] and Komodo-X cameras.
