TVU G-Link platform now supports low-latency, 8K IP video transmission over commodity internet connections, and new to the TVU Remote Production System (RPS) family is the TVU RPS Link Encoder which allows multi-channel REMI production over cellular networks.

«The flexibility of our IS+ protocol and modular design that forms the basis of TVU G-Link made it easy to adapt the platform to support 8K encoding/decoding, – stated Rafael Castillo, Vice President/General Manager, EMEA and Latin America at TVU Networks. – We are starting to see increased demand for 8K acquisition over IP for sports and event broadcasts».

TVU G-Link is a point-to-point IP video transmission platform designed to provide high-quality, low-latency video over commodity internet connections. G-Link utilizes TVU’s renowned IS+ protocol, link aggregation, and HEVC VBR encoding to produce a stable transmission – even under harsh network conditions.

The TVU RPS Link Encoder provides multi-camera, synchronized remote production capability (up to 1080p) using IS+ aggregating up to 12 connections, including embedded 5G/LTE modems, WIFI, ethernet or satellite. Aimed for use in remote locations where reliable wired IP connections are unavailable or inadequate, the TVU RPS Link Encoder features a 2RU chassis configurable for up to six 5G modems with external, high-gain antennas. The solution comes in both four-channel and six-channel models with up to two channels of return video.
