MGW Diamond+ OG 4K, Vitec novelty for IBC

Vitec will exhibit in IBC 2023 (September 15-18) the latest developments in its catalog, among which the Vitec 4K MGW Diamond+ OG encoder or the ChannelLink IP gateway stand out.

Designed to be easily integrated, Vitec will show in IBC 2023 the card MGW Diamond+ OG openGear 4K, suitable for a wide range of contribution or point-to-point transmission applications over IP within production studios, broadcast facilities or corporate server rooms.
