Matrox Video bets everything on Origin ahead of NAB 2026

NAB 2026 (April 19 – 22) once again has the showcase of Matrox Video, which will highlight its purpose of bringing open standards to IP infrastructures with solutions like Origin.

Matrox Origin, vision-compatible asynchronous media framework Dynamic Media Facility (DMF) of the UER, runs on a standard computing infrastructure, whether on-premises or in the cloud. The system replaces the hardware tailored interconnected by synchronous and synchronized protocols, such as ST 2110 and SDI, for distributed multimedia services that operate in COTS environments. In this way, Origin Fabric provides a MXL-compatible uncompressed media exchange layer that allows content to be shared securely at the application level between different providers.

By decoupling the processing of dedicated hardware media and combining high-performance transport with integrated control, the Matrox solution makes it easy low-latency, resilient and highly scalable workflows, allowing users to put the DMF model into practice today, far beyond simple transportation.

In the words of Alberto Cieri, senior vice president of sales and marketing at Matrox Video: "The broadcast industry is moving toward IP-based, software-defined production models. With Matrox Origin and our comprehensive IP portfolio, we enable customers to achieve greater flexibility and operational efficiency, while maintaining the performance and reliability expected in live broadcast environments."

Monarch Edge, ConvertIP, Vion…

Complementing Matrox Origin at NAB, Matrox Video will showcase IP-based production tools that support live production workflows, from capture to delivery. These include Matrox Monarch Edge, which provides secure, low-latency encoding and decoding for remote production and distribution workflows, or Matrox ConvertIP, which enables latency-free bridging between SDI and ST 2110/IPMX workflows.

Other key Matrox solutions at NAB 2026 include Matrox Vion, multi-channel 4K IP gateway for encoding, decoding, transcoding and cross-conversion in live and cloud production environments, or Matrox Avio 2, an ST 2110/IPMX and NMOS compatible IP KVM extender that supports high-resolution extension over standard networks.

The portfolio is complemented by Matrox Video broadcast developer solutions, including network interface cards SMPTE ST 2110, video cards input/output SDI and encoders and decoders H.264 high density.
