WINNERSH, UK -- Imagine Communications, a market leader of media software and video infrastructure solutions serving the global broadcast, multichannel video programming distributor and enterprise markets, has supplied a Platinum IP3 routing solution to leading European outside broadcast company CTV. In addition to routing, the Platinum IP3 will provide a broad range of signal processing and multiviewer functionality to meet a variety of CTV’s mobile production requirements, including coverage of the English cricket season.

“Designing a big outside broadcast truck is a huge challenge, because we are under constant pressure to add functionality while staying within the weight and size limits to take the truck on the road,” said Hamish Greig, Technical Director of CTV. “Because the Platinum router family does so much including frame synchronisation, mux and demux, and multiviewers, it saves considerable space and weight, as well as reduces operational complexity by eliminating the need for external frames and the associated cabling — all of which are real bonuses. Add to that the ability to integrate IP signal routing to help make it future-proof, and it becomes the only sensible choice for a new truck.”
