Apantac , a provider of multiviewers , video walls , extenders and signal processing solutions , is demonstrating its new 32 inputs and four outputs MX-32 multiviewer .
The MX-32 provides the functionality for input source to be displayed on any of the four outputs . Each input source can be duplicated as well as re-sized on the display , while each output can display up to 32 windows .
As with all Apantac multiviewers , the MX-32 includes a custom on-screen display for complete layout flexibility to show up to 128 audio meters per output , custom standalone labels , tally indicators , analogue and digital clocks , and count up / down timers .
Each display window can be re-sized and positioned freely , and is equipped with storage of up to 30 non-volatile presets in the unit .

“ The Mi-16 is an ideal choice for facilities that require a fullfeature multiviewer , yet are costconscious .”
The Mi-16 series has three models : Mi-16 , Mi-16 + and Mi- 16 #. The Mi-16 is a 16x1 multiviewer that features two sets of HDMI and SDI outputs for the display of content .

At BroadcastAsia2017 , GatesAir
( booth 4Q3-01 ) is showcasing its new Maxiva ULXTE liquid-cooled UHF TV transmitter that is ideal for terrestrial broadcasters .
“ The ULXTE integrates our new ATSC 3.0-ready XTE exciter , which increases processing power and incorporates our patented RTAC technology ,” says Darren Frearson of the Ohio-based GatesAir . “ These systems work harmoniously , and greatly reduce the total cost of ownership over the life span of the transmitter .”
The Maxiva ULXTE has been recently chosen to replace the Gates- Air Sigma legacy transmitter that was installed some 15 years ago at WTTW-TV ( owned by Window
To The World Communications ), the primary public broadcasting service member station serving the Chicago market . “ GatesAir sent an engineering team to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the client ’ s transmitter site , and worked out the best possible plan for replacing the old transmitter with the new ULXTE model , given WTTW ’ s limited space and the short deadline it was facing ,” he says .
WTTW will leverage other benefits from working with GatesAir on the path to ATSC 3.0 , including a simpler migration due to matching power levels for ATSC 1.0 and ATSC 3.0 standards within the ULXTE system .
