Solutions will enable NBC Olympics to efficiently manage and monitor the large number of signals acquired from all venues during its coverage of 2014 Sochi Winter Games
Miranda Technologies, a Belden Brand, has been selected to provide a wide array of Densit modular signal processing, iControl control and monitoring solutions, and Kaleido multiviewers to NBC Olympics, a division of the NBC Sports Group, during its production of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia, from February 6-February 23. The announcement was made today by David Mazza, Senior Vice President, Engineering, NBC Olympics, and Marco Lopez, President, Miranda Technologies.
NBC will use Mirandas solutions to help manage and prepare the huge number of signals the Broadcast Operations Center will receive from the various venues. Using Miranda's new Streaming Media Encoder (SME) card, NBC will create a closed-circuit IPTV monitoring system to view critical signals from any location equipped with an IP or WiFi connection, giving easier access to more members of the broadcast team. The production of NBCs telecast, as well as feeds provided for all of NBCUniversal networks and worldwide partner broadcasts, will be managed using a series of Miranda infrastructure components, including the Densit XVP-3901 up/down/cross converter. Broadcast signal feeds will be expertly controlled by NBC operators using critical information powered by Mirandas iControl automated monitoring and award-winning Kaleido multiviewers,
Lopez said, Our solutions are optimized for the rigors of fast-paced, live events, when there's extreme pressure to perform efficiently with the highest levels of quality. NBC Olympics' continued confidence in our solutions for the highest-profile sporting event in the world is testament to the quality of our solutions and the support we provide. We're proud to be part of their team of trusted suppliers.
Mazza said: This is our fifth consecutive Games working with Miranda Technologies. We've grown to trust and rely on the stability and flexibility of their infrastructure, control and monitoring solutions. They have become a critical partner who is key to our continued success in bringing our Olympic coverage to the networks of NBCUniversal.
Kaleido-X units will be used to drive displays in multiple environments, including the Operations Center, control rooms and monitoring rooms, while Kaleido-X16 and KMV units will be used for other applications, such as smaller-scale monitoring workflows and for providing thumbnails for web streams. Additionally, the new SME-1901 streaming media encoder will be used for convenient confidence monitoring throughout the broadcast center.
