Ikegami announces BSX-100 3G Fibre Base Station with IP interface

Ikegami (https://ikegami.de/) announces the introduction of a 3U high half-rack-sized low-mass fibre base station, designed for easy integration into mobile production vehicles and other locations where space is limited. The new BSX-100 offers a coherent upgrade path for broadcasters and production companies as they progress from fully HD into HD/UHD dual-format workflow and onward to pure UHD.

Compatibility and workflow integration

The BSX-100 is fully compatible with Unicam HD system cameras including the HDK-99 and HDK-73 and with Ikegami's future 4K native camera systems. In its standard form, HD output is 3G-SDI/HD-SDI. SMPTE ST.2110 Media over IP interfacing is available as an option for use across 10GbE and 25GbE networks.

Also available is a 4K output option allowing use of HD cameras in a variety of configurations, including simultaneous production in both resolutions by adding 12G-SDI or 3G-SDI quad link transmission to the system. 3G camera systems can be integrated into UHD environments easily and cost-efficiently.      

HDR/SDR Simulcast

The BSX-100 provides full support for Hybrid Log Gamma in conformance with the international standard (ITU-R BT.2100). High dynamic range video with very high quality reproduction from dark to bright areas is possible as well as wide colour gamut. The base station can be operated in 4K HDR and HD SDR simultaneously.

 

Scheduled release date for the Ikegami BSX-100 is Q3 2020.
