Equipped with two independent 100G QSFP28 Ethernet ports, it delivers up to 200G of aggregate bandwidth to multiple editors and colorists simultaneously, while dual redundant power supplies and server-grade front-to-rear cooling keep it running reliably through the longest broadcast days. SDI and HDMI monitoring outputs display real-time storage maps and network throughput on any broadcast monitor, and built-in Blackmagic Cloud sync with AWS S3 means your media is automatically backed up and accessible globally — even while you're still recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15.5px; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0 0 1.75rem;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/0860\/0738\/files\/blackmagic-media-dock-ultra-product-desc.jpg?v=1776710698\" alt=\"Blackmagic Media Dock Ultra — professional network storage for live production and post\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; display: block; border-radius: 4px;\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- ─── OPENING \/ HOOK ─── --\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 4px solid #0055cc; padding: 1rem 1.25rem; margin-bottom: 2rem; background: #f5f8ff;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15.5px; line-height: 1.75;\"\u003eIf your production can't afford a single point of failure — this is the storage solution you've been waiting for.
