Ross has made two new product introductions at NAB Show New York: the Ultrix-MOD-NDI daughter card and OSG-8971 openGear card. The Ultrix-MOD-NDI submodule enhances Ultrix’s flexibility by adding NDI as a new transport stream option. As a daughter card for the Ultrix-MODX-IO board, the sub-module allows up to four encode and four decode of 1080p NDI streams, supporting up to 16 NDI streams per blade.
This direct integration scales up to 256 NDI streams in 12RU, and eliminates the need for external conversion equipment, while still being able to support all the integrated processing, such as multiviewers, production switchers, and video/audio processing tools that are available inside Ultrix.
The OSG-8971 is an openGear card for video transport in modern production workflows. This high-density encoder/decoder delivers reliable, low-latency SDI over SRT transmission, conquering the challenges of point-to-point and ground-to-cloud transport for cloud production, REMI, and geographically dispersed facilities. As an openGear solution, the OSG-8971 is designed for continuous, mission-critical operation and is centrally controlled and managed using DashBoard.
