Kiloview KiloLink Station Pro: Simplify Cellular Bonding for Live Video

Reliable connectivity is essential for live video production, especially when cameras are operating from sports fields, events, campuses, or other locations without a dedicated fiber connection. Kiloview KiloLink Station Pro simplifies this workflow by combining receiving, management, decoding, and output into one compact system.

Designed to work with Kiloview's P3 and P3 Mini bonded cellular encoders, KiloLink Station Pro provides a centralized way to bring multiple remote video feeds back to the production environment.

Receive, Manage, Decode, and Output

KiloLink Station Pro puts the receiving workflow into a single piece of hardware. KiloLink Server Pro comes preinstalled, while browser-based management provides centralized control of connected devices and network links.

Key features include:

  • Receive up to 8 P3 or P3 Mini feeds simultaneously
  • Centralized device and link management
  • IP protocol conversion
  • 4 × 3G-SDI outputs up to 1080p60
  • 1 × 4K HDMI output up to 4K60
  • Compact half-rack-width, 1RU-height design
  • Remote encoder parameter management
  • Firmware and permission management
  • Local recording to compatible SSD storage

This makes KiloLink Station Pro a practical solution for productions that need to manage multiple bonded cellular feeds from one location.

Simplify Traditional Cellular Bonding Workflows

Traditional cellular bonding deployments can require a separate server, Linux configuration, containers, commands, and recurring service costs.

KiloLink Station Pro takes a different approach. With preconfigured hardware, browser-based management, and no bonding subscription, the receiving system is ready to integrate into a professional production workflow.

Professional SDI and HDMI Outputs

Once the bonded feeds reach the Station Pro, they can be integrated into a live production system using professional video outputs.

The system provides four synchronized 3G-SDI outputs up to 1080p60, making feeds switcher-ready. It also includes one 4K HDMI output up to 4K60, which can provide a single view or a 2 × 2 multiview.

Local Recording for Backup and Post-Production

KiloLink Station Pro also supports local recording of incoming streams to compatible SSD storage.

Kiloview Station Pro Storage Stick options provide purpose-built local storage for incoming streams. Available in 1TB and 2TB capacities, they are designed and tested for Station Pro and can be useful for backup, review, and post-production.

Third-party SSDs may require compatibility review.

Pair KiloLink Station Pro With Kiloview P3 and P3 Mini

The Station Pro serves as the receiving side of the workflow, while Kiloview's bonded cellular encoders keep the field connected.

Kiloview P3 is the flagship field encoder for productions that need maximum connectivity. It supports up to six bonded network paths, including four 5G/4G cellular modules, Wi-Fi, and Gigabit Ethernet. The P3 also supports HDMI, 3G-SDI, and USB inputs, with HDMI video up to 4K30.

Kiloview P3 Mini brings cellular bonding to a more compact 1080p workflow. It supports up to five bonded network paths, including three 4G cellular modules, Wi-Fi, and Gigabit Ethernet. It also features HDMI, 3G-SDI, USB, a 3-inch touchscreen, and a 4900mAh battery with PD fast charging.

Built for Sports, Events, Remote Production, and Education

KiloLink Station Pro can help extend live video production beyond traditional wired infrastructure.

Sports and Events: Bring roaming or remote cameras back to a central production area.

Remote Production: Send contributors and cameras to a central control room without requiring a dedicated fiber path.

Education and Campus: Cover ceremonies, performances, sporting events, and other locations beyond installed AV infrastructure.

A Complete Field-to-Studio Workflow

The KiloLink workflow is straightforward:

P3 or P3 Mini → Bonded Cellular Connections → KiloLink Station Pro → SDI/HDMI → Production System

The field encoder combines available network connections to deliver a more resilient stream back to the studio. KiloLink Station Pro then receives, manages, decodes, and outputs those feeds for live production.

For teams looking to simplify cellular bonding, live streaming, sports production, and remote video workflows, KiloLink Station Pro provides a centralized solution without the complexity of building a receiving system from scratch.
