ARRI is bringing SMPTE ST 2110 support for the ALEXA 35 Live Multicam System. This opens the system up to fully IP-based broadcast studios, stadiums, high-end flypacks, and remote productions.
It comes in the form of Software Update Package (SUP) 1.5.0 for the Live Production System LPS-1, and the new functionality brings ALEXA 35 Live directly into modern ST 2110 infrastructures through a permanent software license.
The implementation enables independent routing and control of uncompressed video, multichannel audio, and time-sensitive metadata over a 25GbE full-duplex connection. It can simultaneously transport two uncompressed UHD camera feeds alongside multiple HD or UHD return-video and return-AUX channels. Multiple HD streams also support HFR slow-motion acquisition over IP.
The LPS-1 ST 2110 architecture is designed for interoperability with broadcast ecosystems including Riedel Communications infrastructure and SimplyLive production environments. Comprehensive AMWA NMOS support (IS-04, IS-05, IS-08, IS-09, BCP-003-01, and BCP-003-03) and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) enable automated discovery, connection management, audio-channel mapping, synchronization, and secure operation across the media network, helping customers build flexible production environments around open standards.
Pricing & Availability
The LPS-1 SUP 1.5.0 can be downloaded from the ARRI website now, and the LPS-1 ST 2110 License is available from the ARRI License Shop, priced at €7,500.
