Riedel Communications has signed a new partnership deal with Haivision, which will see selected Haivision products be offered as part of Riedel’s managed technology services.
By combining Haivision’s live video transmission systems with Riedel’s Easy5G Private 5G offering, users will be able to source wireless video from a single provider, including planning, operation, and support delivered by Riedel’s managed technology team.
The joint setup made its debut on November 11 at German public broadcaster WDR’s live broadcast marking the start of the Cologne Carnival season.
Two Easy5G base stations provided reliable coverage across the entire Heumarkt, one of Cologne’s largest public squares. Two of WDR’s 10 cameras were equipped with Haivision’s 5G mobile video transmitters – one stationary wireless camera aimed at the audience, and one mobile unit used for live interviews and dynamic stage shots. The transmitters converted the SDI signals to IP and delivered them with stable, low-latency performance over the Easy5G Private 5G network to the Haivision StreamHub receivers in the OB truck.
