Vizrt Viz Connect Studio I/O

Vizrt Viz Connect Studio I/O is a configurable 2RU broadcast interface designed to connect IP video, SDI infrastructure, audio, recording, playback, and signal monitoring within one system. It accepts NDI, SRT, SDI, RTMP, and RTSP sources, making it practical for facilities that need to move content between baseband and network-based production environments.

The system supports up to eight IP channels and eight SDI I/O channels, including up to two UHD channels through 12G-SDI, 6G-SDI, or quad-link 3G-SDI. Each channel can be configured independently for source, resolution, frame rate, audio, processing, and color, giving broadcast engineers more control when building mixed-format studio workflows.

Highlights

• Up to 8 IP and 8 SDI I/O channels for flexible studio signal management
• UHD 4K SDI support through 12G-SDI, 6G-SDI, or quad-link 3G-SDI
• Independent per-channel configuration for video, audio, format, frame rate, and color
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for high-bandwidth NDI and IP production
• Integrated monitoring and remote control with waveform, vectorscope, multiview, NDI KVM, and browser access

Why It Helps

Viz Connect Studio I/O gives broadcast engineers a practical bridge between existing SDI systems and modern IP production. A single unit can receive network or baseband sources, process each channel independently, and deliver signals as NDI or SDI without forcing the entire workflow to use one resolution, frame rate, or audio configuration.

Remote access also makes the system easier to manage in machine rooms and distributed facilities. NDI KVM provides direct interface control from a compatible networked device, while the browser-based control page allows operators to monitor signals and adjust the unit from a desktop, touchscreen, iOS device, or Android device.

System Characteristics

• Hybrid IP and SDI architecture supports NDI, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, and professional SDI standards
• Independent channel processing allows separate source, format, frame-rate, audio, and color settings
• Integrated color correction supports brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, white balance, and automatic channel matching
• Professional monitoring and synchronization include waveform, vectorscope, multiview, timecode, and Genlock
• High-speed network design combines 10GbE, 2.5GbE, and 1GbE connections for studio IP workflows
