BRIDGE LIVE

Overview

The BRIDGE LIVE family are the broadcast quality, low latency turnkey systems for REMI, Synchronous Multi-Channel Video Contribution, Remote Collaboration, Direct to Audience Streaming, and Multi-Bitrate/Multi-Format Delivery via a wide range of IP video standards and/or SDI. New to the BRIDGE LIVE family is the BRIDGE LIVE 3G-8, a high-density HD version of BRIDGE LIVE, which supports up to 8x bi-directional 3G-SDI I/O.

BRIDGE LIVE and BRIDGE LIVE 3G-8 were 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 either 12G-SDI I/O or 3G-SDI I/O with the power and flexibility to enable real time, bidirectional encoding, decoding, and transcoding for critical UltraHD or HD workflows, BRIDGE LIVE is an essential part of any modern video production toolkit. A compact and robust 1RU form factor, with redundant power supplies, and a three year warranty, means peace of mind even when dealing with the most demanding applications.

Whether facilitating remote production, interviews, live event streaming, synchronous multi-camera backhaul with HDR, cloud contribution, program return, confidence monitoring, collaborative production, or ABR ladder profiles to hand off for OTT packaging, BRIDGE LIVE ensures simultaneous, secure, and reliable workflows over purpose built dedicated lines or the public internet.

BRIDGE LIVE FAMILY I/O Overview

The BRIDGE LIVE family of products, BRIDGE LIVE and BRIDGE LIVE 3G-8, support the most widely used IP video compression schemes and transport protocols to solve your workflow needs. The BRIDGE LIVE family supports conversion to/from SDI to numerous IP video solutions and well as pure IP conversion and distribution workflows.

Simultaneous Bidirectional Encoding and Decoding

BRIDGE LIVE supports simultaneous bidirectional encoding and decoding from UltraHD (BRIDGE LIVE only), HD, and SD sources. Both models support up to UltraHD from IP-based sources.

For example, with a pair of BRIDGE LIVE systems, a broadcast facility can receive three incoming encoded camera sources from a remote location and decode them back into SDI for editing and production while simultaneously providing program return to the remote location. This example shows 4 channel capability on BRIDGE LIVE, while BRIDGE LIVE 3G-8 supports up to 8 HD channels.
