Viz Connect Tetra is an ultra-compact live production workstation that enables multi-channel 4K video and audio connectivity with a simple internet or network connection, anywhere in the world.
Viz Connect Tetra seamlessly connects 12G SDI, 3G SDI, NDI® with NDI® Bridge built-in and now Flowics HTML 5 graphics – all in a small desktop workstation!
Bringing together any Viz Live Production product as well as any Viz Graphics Tool and, using NDI Bridge allowing Vizrt Content Creation anywhere in the world – without the need for additional hardware.
VIZ FLOWICS MEETS NDI AND BASEBAND
How can you bridge the gap between HTML based graphics tools and traditional SDI infrastructure? The answer is Viz Connect Tetra – it seamlessly brings in graphics tools like Viz Flowics, converting them for use with SDI systems and of course the most popular live production systems around the world with NDI®.
COMPACT & POWERFUL CONVERSION
Don’t let the desktop form factor of Viz Connect Tetra fool you – this adaptable box offers four exceptionally flexible 12G IO channels, in an ultra compact footprint that doesn’t have to live on a rack – unless of course, you need it to.
NDI® AT ITS CORE
Boasting access to NDI Bridge join-mode* in the device itself, this desktop converter can send and receive NDI for remote production anywhere in the world – without any additional hardware.
OUR MOST FLEXIBLE AUDIO YET
No matter the audio format you are using, Viz Connect Tetra has you covered – whether it’s NDI®, SDI, Dante, or ASIO – and for the very first time each IO channel supports 16×16 audio routing for patching on the go.
*NDI|HX Support for 4K Sources limited to 1x stream in either direction at launch. 4K and HD NDI High Bandwidth, and HD NDI|HX streams can be utilized across all 4x channels.
