Riedel MediorNet Powers Infrastructure for HD Broadcast’s Upgraded HD1

HD Broadcast, a major German provider of live production and outside broadcasting services, has upgraded its HD1 mobile production truck with Riedel Communications’ MediorNet real-time network. Three MediorNet Compact Pro frames and six Riedel MicroN high-density media distribution network devices are connected over a 10 Gbps optical fiber network to create a fully redundant, decentralized routing matrix. Working in combination with HD Broadcast’s existing Riedel Artist digital matrix intercom system, the new MediorNet infrastructure combines fully integrated signal transport, routing, and processing with communications.

“We are very impressed with the flexibility and interoperability that MediorNet, MicroN, and Artist offer us. With their outstanding quality and reliability, these solutions have set the market standard for future-proof networking,” says Constantin Novotny, CEO of HD Broadcast GmbH. “MediorNet’s integrated signal management has enabled us to deploy decentralized router capabilities with distributed system intelligence — an ideal foundation on which to move towards an IP-based networking infrastructure and support future 4K productions.”

HD Broadcast completed the networking upgrade of OB HD1 in only three days thanks to MediorNet’s ease of integration. The new MediorNet-based network infrastructure gives the production truck greater flexibility and significantly increased capacity through higher bandwidth and additional connectivity options. The fiber-based network also allows HD Broadcast to minimize cabling, setup, and logistics expenses, resulting in significant cost savings.
