Live Production AV Solutions for Broadcast Studios, Control Rooms, and Field Ops
Studios, control rooms, and OB trucks rely on AV systems that handle high-resolution feeds with speed, accuracy, and control. Gefen provides infrastructure optimized for switching, monitoring, and source management—delivering the stability required for live production and editorial precision. Gefen’s broadcast-ready gear is trusted behind-the-scenes where performance, uptime, and video fidelity directly impact production success.
Applications
Live Event Control Rooms
In high-pressure control rooms supporting live news, sports, and entertainment broadcasts, there’s no room for signal lag or downtime. Gefen supports dynamic source switching and centralized operator control to help teams react instantly to live feeds, graphics transitions, or last-second changes—ensuring broadcasts stay clean, sharp, and uninterrupted.
Studio-Based Editorial & Post-Production
Post-production environments demand signal clarity and consistent performance across multiple editing bays, color suites, and audio mix rooms. Gefen infrastructure helps maintain pristine AV quality between high-resolution workstations and calibrated reference monitors, enabling editors and colorists to work with confidence in demanding workflows.
Multi-Format Ingest & Monitoring Suites
Production studios often manage content from a mix of HDMI, DisplayPort, or legacy sources. Gefen solutions help unify these sources across monitoring walls and ingest stations—ensuring compatibility and continuous playback, even in unpredictable broadcast pipelines where timing, resolution, and sync must remain intact.
On-Site Mobile Production & OB Trucks
In field production environments, space is limited and system flexibility is critical. Gefen’s compact signal routing gear and extenders help mobile broadcast teams deliver stable, low-latency video to engineering stations, camera shaders, and output feeds—supporting flawless execution during remote shoots, concerts, or sporting events.
