Clear-Com Appointed Exclusive US Distributor for BroaMan

“Clear-Com and BroaMan have worked closely for a number of years to create easy integration and control between the two companies’ leading audio solutions,” said Simon Browne, Vice President of Product Management, Clear-Com. “The BroaMan solutions are a natural fit within the Clear-Com portfolio, providing truly integrated transport and routing solutions for video, audio, intercom and data, and exceptional fiber distribution capabilities for the Corporate AV Rental, House of Worship, and multi-use Live Event Venue applications.

“BroaMan is known for its masterful engineering of fiber-based media networks, with their very low and deterministic latency, ability to handle many high bandwidth video signals, and future-proofed for 4K video and beyond as well as future IP standards, Clear-Com is proud to partner with BroaMan in providing these video and audio solutions for studio and remote Broadcast production.”

Tine Helmle, MD, BroaMan, said, “Clear-Com is an excellent partner to be working with — extremely professional, knowledgeable and with great staff in the US and across the world. In fact, they have already sold a good number of BroaMan devices for several years already.”

The compact Repeat8-NANO and Repeat48 Series of media converters offer simple and cost-efficient point-to-point fiber transport. The Repeat8-NANO is a complete, plug-and-play 4K fiber transport in a single box and is therefore ideally placed for facilities requiring simple 4K transmission. It is available in two stand-alone versions:

• Repeat8-NANO 4IN features four SDI inputs and four fiber SFP outputs (electrical to optical conversion).
• Repeat8-NANO 4OUT features four SDI outputs and four fiber SFP inputs (optical to electrical conversion).

The Repeat48 Series has similar features to the Repeat8-NANO, but with either 12 or 24 channels. Repeat48 is available with or without a built-in WDM module, and there is also a custom version offering additional hardware features.

Route66 Series is a multiple-purpose device that offers a small to mid-size, cost-efficient video matrix and is perfect for AV installations. It also provides ultra-fast video switching with no delay for 3G-SDI, and remote-controllable fiber patchbay for any protocol. The panels have a 40x40 optical MUX and router for up to 24 BNC-SDI 3G/HD/SD video ports, up to 20 duplex or 36 simplex protocol-independent LC fiber ports.

In addition, the Mux22 Series of application-engineered devices offer every signal needed in the professional environment in a small 1RU chassis. Mux22 combines 3G/HD/SD-SDI I/O with Optocore and SANE digital audio networks, creating a compact solution to transport video, along with audio and data, all in a single duplex fiber cable

About BroaMan

BroaMan (Broadcast Manufactur GmbH) is the company behind high quality products made in Germany, that are aimed at broadcasters as well as production companies, sport facilities, professional AV integrators and many more applications. The company offers customised solutions as well as standard devices for every application that requires SD/HD/3G video transport or routing – whether a big and complex system for broadcast studio or OB Van, or a simple point to point for a small church, conference hall, etc. With DiViNe (Digital Video Network) all open standards can be integrated — digital video, audio and data — on the same fibre infrastructure. One of the main differentiators from other companies providing video over fibre solutions is the approach. BroaMan's customers can order a video system on demand, which is unique, and requires a different level of complexity and features, and yet it still has the best price ratio on the market. These BroaMan systems are tailored to match the customer's exact needs. Besides tailor made systems, BroaMan offers Standard Devices, which includes the Mux22 BNC Intercom.
