AVIWEST To Showcase DMNG Solutions At BVE 2015

AVIWEST has announced it will demo the latest enhancements to its Digital Mobile News Gathering (DMNG) system at this year's BVE show.

The live video contribution platform enables broadcasters to capture and broadcast live HD or SD video over multiple networks, including bonded 3G/4G cellular wireless, WiFi, Ethernet, and satellite.

Key Product Introductions and Demos

NEW Linux®-Based DMNG Studio – AVIWEST will showcase a new version of its DMNG Studio server, designed to receive incoming streams from DMNG video uplink systems, IP cameras, and other equipment through a variety of formats such as RTP, RTSP, TS over UDP, and RTMP. The next-generation DMNG Studio is based on a Linux operating system and offers support for multiple output formats as well as point-to-point and point-to-multipoint video distribution.

By allowing broadcasters to use the DMNG Studio as a central video hub and interface, the new DMNG Studio system enables the inputting of video signals from the studio mixer and streaming to the cloud.

The DMNG Studio is compatible with all AVIWEST live video transmission solutions, including the DMNG PRO series, DMNG RACK180 and the DMNG APP. Users can manage a fleet of remote transmitters and create live broadcast shows by interacting with the remote journalists and selecting the stream to publish on air.

DMNG Manager – AVIWEST will demonstrate new cloud-based capabilities for the DMNG Manager at BVE 2015. The DMNG Manager is a server application that enables broadcasters and video professionals to monitor and manage a fleet of DMNG equipment including DMNG transmitters, smartphones with the DMNG APP, and DMNG Studio receivers.

Through a unified Web-based user interface that can be installed through either a cloud-based application or a headend solution, operators can allocate resources and route live video content for transmission over 3G/4G cellular wireless, WiFi, Ethernet, and satellite networks. The DMNG Manager also includes geolocation capabilities, enabling broadcasters to identify the location of each transmission.

DMNG APP – At BVE 2015, AVIWEST will showcase the DMNG APP, which turns any Android- or iOS-based smartphone into a live broadcast video camera.

Using the DMNG APP, video professionals can stream live video content via WiFi and 3G/4G-LTE networks – even bonding both together for higher bandwidth, coverage, and reliability – or transmit prerecorded video files from anywhere in the world to the DMNG Studio receiver. Fully integrated into the DMNG ecosystem, the application can be remotely controlled through AVIWEST's DMNG Manager.

DMNG RACK180 Contribution Video Encoder With QUAD Antenna Arrays – Another highlight at BVE 2015 will be AVIWEST's DMNG RACK180, an encoding solution for live newsgathering applications. It is designed for installation in OB vans, SNGs, or other vehicles such as smaller news satellite cars.

Using the DMNG RACK180, operators can capture and deliver HD video content in real time over multiple networks, including 3G/4G cellular wireless, WiFi, Ethernet, and satellite.

The DMNG RACK180 provides connections to two AVIWEST QUAD wideband cellular antenna arrays, which offer strong 3G/4G signal resiliency for live video transmission in critical conditions. AVIWEST's QUAD solution combines four wideband antennas operating from 600MHz to 3GHz, and covering all frequency bands used by 3G and 4G networks worldwide.
