BRIDGE LIVE IP
BRIDGE LIVE IP is the broadcast quality, low-latency turnkey systems for REMI, Synchronous Multi-Channel Video Contribution, Remote Collaboration, Direct to Audience Streaming, and Multi Bit Rate/ Multi Format Delivery. BRIDGE LIVE IP was developed as a collaboration between AJA and Comprimato to deliver the performance, reliability, and ease of use necessary for critical live encode, decode, or transcode needs. Equipped with 2x 25 GbE SMPTE ST 2110 I/O plus the power and flexibility to enable real time bidirectional encoding, decoding, and transcoding for critical UltraHD and HD workflows, BRIDGE LIVE IP is the essential part of any modern live video production toolkit. A compact and robust 1RU form factor with redundant power supplies and up to a five year warranty means peace of mind even when dealing with the most demanding applications.
