Building custom solutions from building blocks and expertise
Broadcast Solutions will demonstrate at IBC 2025 (12-15 September, Amsterdam RAI) the ingenuity and understanding that has made it one of Europe’s largest media systems integration groups. As usual, Broadcast Solutions has taken one of the largest spaces in the outdoor exhibits area, stand O.A23, where it will highlight recent fixed and mobile builds for major clients, alongside its specialist products.
To deliver completely tailored solutions for its broad range of clients, while ensuring speed of project completion as well as cost-effectiveness, Broadcast Solutions has developed a comprehensive set of building blocks: modular concepts which can be combined and populated to precisely meet the requirements.
The Streamline outside broadcast truck is a perfect example, standardised designs ranging in size from four camera vans to expanding trailers supporting 24 cameras or more. With the basic architecture pre-engineered, clients are free to specify their preferred choices in key equipment such as cameras, switchers, audio mixers and routers, and SDI, NDI, ST2110 or hybrid interconnectivity.
The IBC 2025 stand will feature a Streamline S12, recently completed for Swiss production company Brutal Güet. This single-expanding trailer provides a three-room production facility, while still including extensive storage space and a tail-lift. The new Brutal Güet outside broadcast unit is currently designed to operate in HDR high definition, and is fully ready for 4k Ultra HD.
“We have had huge success with the Streamline concept, because it means we can get a new truck on the road very quickly indeed,” said Rainer Kampe, Managing Director / CTO at Broadcast Solutions. “Today’s broadcast and media production industry is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and speed to market has become essential for achieving commercial success.”
The same engineering skills and modular concepts are used by Broadcast Solutions in fixed installations, like the production hub for Matchday in Copenhagen. This provides a centralised facility for all top-flight football in Denmark, along with VAR rooms, in a hybrid SDI/SMPTE ST2110 environment.
Broadcast Solutions is proudly vendor agnostic, ensuring that every project – fixed or mobile – delivers against the precise requirements of the end user. Where necessary the company has the resources to develop targeted solutions for specific requirements, and these are spun out as products available to all system designers. It developed hi human interface (IBC stand 10.C31) as a completely intuitive control layer for a complete production or broadcast infrastructure, making system configuration and operation as simple as a smartphone app.
Where advanced wireless connectivity is required, meshTECH is a seamless, secure and high-speed platform for mesh networks, for public safety as well as media applications. Built on MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) technology for enhanced data throughput and reliability, it allows users to build mobile ad hoc networks (MANet) quickly where required, delivering scalable, high performance IP connectivity.
Recognising the increasing demand for specialist camera systems in live production, Broadcast Solutions developed a number of solutions from remote heads to a very sophisticated, highly automated cable aerial camera mount, ready for any manufacturer’s ⅔” box camera.
“Our large outside plot allows us to showcase all we can do,” Kampe said. “Most important, having real-world examples at hand, like the new Brutal Güet truck, sparks conversations. We invest in IBC for those times when a visitor says ‘I like this design, but I need something that does…’. That is how great technology partnerships start.”
