Matrox Video and STAGETEC have announced a joint demonstration at IBC 2023 to launch STAGETEC’s Stagenet 1.0 IP signal management control software. The demonstration—featuring Stagenet 1.0 and Matrox ConvertIP DRH converters in a 1 Gb/s network environment—is designed to show video professionals how they can overcome the complexity of IP signal management and transition to IP operations without network engineering expertise or dedicated staff to manage the network infrastructure.

“People will see that you can deploy high-quality, low-latency installations with no expertise required. With Matrox ConvertIP and Stagenet, IP signal management doesn’t have to be complicated, and you don’t need to hire specialized staff,” said Rehman Leigh, Stagenet specialist, STAGETEC.

In the demonstration featuring JPEG XS compressed video, Stagenet 1.0 will link all video devices over a 1 Gb/s network. Visitors will see how Stagenet 1.0 enables comprehensive command over Matrox ConvertIP units, which will govern video distribution across the entire stand. Beyond managing video screens, Stagenet will integrate all audio devices by STAGETEC and Merging Technologies across the stand and will also manage Arista switches, unifying components into a single system. Through Stagenet’s intuitive browser-based user interface with automatic detection, attendees will be able to add new devices without needing any technical skills to find new signals.

“Broadcast engineers are looking for ways to successfully incorporate ST 2110 into their operations,” said Daniel Maloney, technical marketing manager, Matrox Video. “Now they can easily and effectively convert, monitor, mix, integrate, and manage both IP and baseband signals with the combination of Stagenet management and Matrox ConvertIP.”

IBC2023 attendees can experience the demonstration for themselves at IBC 2023 on STAGETEC Stand 8.A95.
