Matrox Monarch EDGE Boosts
Reach for Live Event Coverage
Matrox provides even more reach for live event coverage
with the Monarch EDGE encoder and decoder pair...

A

dvances in broadcast technology
are paving the way for more
increasingly diversified live online
sporting content in niche markets like
local team sports, skateboarding
competitions, and professional
e-sport tournaments.
As sports fans cravings for
engaging, in-the-moment live event
coverage continue to intensify, so does
the need for broadcasters to produce
content that is as action-packed as the
game, race, or competition itself, while
maximizing their resources. REMote
Integration (REMI) for live, multicamera events is gaining momentum,
with workflow approaches including
in-studio and cloud-based production.
The In-Studio live production
approach involves converting feeds to
SDI so traditional SDI-based systems
can manage and produce the content
as if the cameras were located within
the same facility as the production

crew. With this approach, broadcasters
can leverage a single production
system and staff to do multiple events
in a range of venues - all in just one
day - rather than bringing an OB truck
and associated crew and equipment
to each individual event. By allowing
broadcasters to minimize these costs
and keep resources in-house, REMI
promises rights holders a means of
delivering their content affordably
and to a wider range of viewers tuning
in via cable TV, or from computers,

tablets, or smartphones on online
channels.
The
cloud-based
approach
involves live production migration
from systems on premise to cloudbased platforms where they can be
offered as SaaS. Produced feeds
originating from this platform can
then be easily fed to cloud-based
OTT delivery platforms. Cloud-based
production software such as Sony's
Virtual Production and Vimeo's Studio
maximize flexibility for producers by

allowing them to create compelling
broadcast content using a simple webbased user interface.
Matrox Monarch EDGE is designed
to help organizations maximize their
use of in-house production equipment,
the Monarch EDGE encoder and
decoder pair can transport multiple
synchronized camera feeds over
dedicated WAN/LAN or public internet,
and back to the studio for SDI-based
vision mixing. The Monarch EDGE
encoder
synchronizes
and
securely delivers remote camera
feeds to master control rooms or
the cloud for production with
remarkably low latency.
Monarch EDGE's practical, compact
design makes it ideal for installation
in a fly-pack or with a second Monarch
EDGE unit in a 1RU-rack space. Its four
HD inputs make the device ideal for
multi-camera live events, and a single
4Kp60 video can be encoded just as
easily.
Both the Monarch EDGE encoder and
decoder offer flexible, future-proof
connectivity with 3G, 12G SDI, and ST
2110 over 25GbE network connections,
so broadcasters moving to IP-based
workflows and replacing SDI with
Ethernet are covered.
