V__remote4

Lawo’s V__remote 4 is a one-box-solution for all the requirements of video and audio signal transport and processing in WAN-based remote productions as well as in standard contribution applications.

It includes everything, from Video-over-IP coding to various monitoring and processing tools. All designed for one purpose: to provide a tool that increases the flexibility of any broadcast application, while saving valuable rack-space, set-up time and production costs.

With its virtual cabling capability, the V__remote 4 immediately brings IP infrastructure advantages and cost savings, providing an unparalleled degree of flexibility and scalability.

In live remote production, which is increasingly considered state-of-the-art in the broadcast world, IP is a fundamental requirement. Getting reliable, low-latency and high-quality video from venues back to studios at reasonable cost is paramount.

The Lawo V__remote4 combines a bi-directional, four-channel Video-over-IP interface, four local SDI inputs and outputs, along with all the processing tools usually needed when contributing video and audio via WAN or LAN to a broadcast production.

Four 3G/HD/SD SDI inputs and four 3G/HD/SD SDI outputs allow operators to interface with external video equipment. Video signals are converted to IP streams, and vice versa. Streams are transported via standard Layer-3 IP LAN or WAN.

The V__remote4 provides parallel encoding in multiple streaming formats, making the same signal available for different applications: RAW for local production, JPEG2000 for remote sites and H.264 for monitoring applications. Since the V__remote4 uses genuine network technology with multi-cast capability, it allows for easy transmission of signals to multiple outputs on the network.
