Matrox Video 2024 NAB Show Lineup Drives Implementation of Efficient IT- and IP-Centric Media Workflows
Products Enhance Remote Production (REMI), Contribution, Distribution, Operations and Control, and Tier 1 Live Production
MONTREAL — March 21, 2024 — Technology innovator Matrox Video will exhibit on booth SL5073 at the 2024 NAB Show, April 13-17 in Las Vegas, providing product demos and featuring customer stories that illustrate how the company helps broadcasters, live event producers, developers, and manufacturers implement and improve their IP- and IT-based media workflows. Booth visitors will discover products and solutions for remote production (REMI), contribution, distribution, operations and control, and Tier 1 live production in the cloud, along with the latest innovations for SMPTE ST 2110 and IPMX. Experts from Matrox Video will present on IP and IT technologies for media during the Broadcast Engineering and IT (BEIT) conference, and the company’s products will be showcased across the show floor in partner demonstrations of IP video workflows.
“With over 45 years serving as a leading provider to the biggest brands in the most demanding applications, Matrox Video has led industry transitions from analog video to SDI and ST 2110/IPMX and is uniquely positioned to deliver the IP- and IT-based workflows powering production today,” said Francesco Scartozzi, vice president of sales and business development for the Broadcast and Media group at Matrox Video. “Our NAB lineup addresses that shift, and we’ll demonstrate practical media-over-IP applications that help attendees accelerate their workflows and improve their operations.”

New — Matrox DSX SDK 10.5
The latest updates to the Matrox DSX SDK for both DSX and X.mio NIC and I/O cards enable ultra-low latency from in to out, with a 1-frame delay for interlaced video and a 2-frame delay for progressive video. The new “large canvas” feature enabled on X.mio5 ST 2110 cards allows customizable regions of interest from a large canvas to be output as multi-channel 1080P and UHD resolutions for flexible and advanced multi-screen display workflows. DSX SDK 10.5 also supports ST 2110-22 with JPEG-XS encoding and decoding and adds native support for AWS S3 with the Flex Reader and Writer for cloud-based applications.
New — Matrox DSX LE6 D100 ST 2110 Network Interface Card
This new 100 GbE ST 2110 network card is designed for high-performance media environments including broadcast and virtual production. Featuring dual QSFP 28 connectors, this PCIe Gen 4 x 8 card offers up to eight channels of UHD@P60 or two channels of 8KP60 input and output, all with ST 2022-7 redundancy. The card has hardware-based PTP to provide nanosecond-range ST 2059-2 accuracy and offloads all ST 2110 packet processing from the CPU, which is essential for high-density and high-resolution applications. This card also offers ultra-low latency to minimize in-to-out latency for multi-channel 4K and 8K applications.
