The Base Station companion for Ikusnet news contribution system.

The Ikusnet portable system and Ikusnet Studio can automatically connect to each other through the Internet; this allows live transmission or video file transfer to be performed. Ikusnet Studio is able to decode a live feed sent via the Internet or satellite; it is also able to encode a video stream to be sent back to the remote portable station for cue, fold-back or monitoring. This compact 1RU unit includes internal disk and can also be connected to an external unit to enable storage of received videos for later access through the local network. Ikusnet Studio can be set-up and controlled by its web interface across your network. It can also be monitored from its front panel LCD display. Video and audio signals/levels and connectors are of full broadcast quality. Operationally the unit benefits from Prodys’ extensive live broadcast experience since 1995.
