The JVC Professional CONNECTED CAM Studio 6000S might be designed for sports and other live events, such as IP-based sports and news productions, but integration firms might find it to be a fit for their command and control room customers.
Launching at 2019 NAB Show, the JVC Professional CONNECTED CAM acts as a self-contained control room featuring a production switcher with six IP inputs that support NDI as well as the SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) streaming protocols, according to a JVC Pro press release.
“The Studio 6000S is another important step toward a complete IP production workflow for news, sports, worship, and other markets,” says Joe D’Amico, vice president, JVC Professional Video.
“It’s an economical solution for live production that really allows our customers to deliver more dynamic multi-camera coverage with smaller crews.”
