@ConnecTechAsia2018 www.apb-news.com ❝ We’re seeing that there’s a lot of conversion right now — media companies are looking at converting their SDI facilities into IP, which definitely is not going to happen overnight. This is going to be a long process, I’d say roughly over five to 10 years. Some countries are going to be faster than others. We see that in Europe where major broadcasters are engaged in this IP transition as well as in North America. We’re just starting to see the transition happening also in the Asia-Pacific market, which is why Embrionix is here at BroadcastAsia2018. ❞ 27 June 2018 WEDNESDAY 39 ❝ Absolutely, the trend we see taking place in today’s media ind ustry is the move towards IP networking. Most recently, one of the areas that is very exciting is the contribution phase — the network that connects the broadcasts to live events. Using some of the evolving standards such as SMPTE ST 2110, I was seeing a great attraction to using an all-IP network for end-to-end broadcast. If you look at what that means for broadcasters, it means that they’re able to move faster and deliver more personalisation of channels. But they are also able to create a remote production environment, centralising the stuff, and they get more efficient to create more content using their existing infrastructure. ❞ — Richard Bayliss, Director of Systems Engineering, APJ, Arista Networks — Denis Pare, Vice-President of Sales, Embrionix ❝ For trends ... it’s the high dynamic rate shooting for broadcasting, and multi- cam application with the cameras that we have. For example, this interview is being captured by one of our cameras, the Amira. In the motion picture where ARRI is strong in, we see a trend in large- format acquisi- tion. ❞ System integration and beyond. First time introduction of Simplylive solutions to the Asian market!

Content is still king today, and is produced as if in a super high- efficiency factory. The glass-to-glass supply chain is growing smaller, and all of that is leading to a lot of change and turmoil on the technology side. We, as technology vendors, have to keep with the demands of our customers and their viewers. ❞ — Cameron O’Neill, Director, Asia- Pacific, Riedel Commu- nications t our a e v i l mply See Si d 4G3-05! stan www.broadcast-solutions.de
