Give Your 100G Cameras Broadcast Redundancy
The Blackmagic Design StudioBridge 100G bridges the company’s latest high-frame-rate and immersive camera systems into a fully redundant SMPTE-2110 dual 100G Ethernet broadcast system. Its two 100G QSFP28 camera connections support Blackmagic Design’s URSA Cine 12K 100G and URSA Cine Immersive cameras, and two simultaneous camera connections can be combined when the total bandwidth stays under 100 Gbps. The StudioBridge 100G also future-proofs your infrastructure for VR live production workflows with its support for 8K immersive video, plus it supports HD and Ultra HD broadcast standards up to 2160p60 and automatically switches between HD, Ultra HD, and 4K formats during live productions. And thanks to the StudioBridge 100G’s SMPTE-2022-7 seamless protection switching and dual redundant AC power supplies, your productions will stay on air even during network or power failures. With a dedicated 1G NMOS control port plus real-time A/V monitoring via a front-panel 2.2-inch color LCD, Sweetwater A/V experts think you’ll find the StudioBridge 100G is as manageable as it is capable.
8K immersive video support
The StudioBridge 100G is fully compatible with Blackmagic Design’s URSA Cine Immersive camera, offering support for 8K immersive video at 8160 x 7200 x 2 stereo. Using these cameras along with the StudioBridge 100G prepares your broadcast infrastructure for immersive live productions that bring stereoscopic 3D and VR content to your audiences.
Operate two 100G cameras simultaneously
With two 100G QSFP28 connections that can be combined when bandwidth stays below 100 Gbps, the StudioBridge 100G lets you interface two cameras into a redundant broadcast system. This allows you to maximize your available bandwidth while operating two high-speed cameras and maintain complete SMPTE-2022-7 redundancy without additional hardware.
