A throwdown mini converter needs to be built tough. GearLite modules are all constructed from heavy steel and include features like locking connectors to ensure reliable operation, wherever you throw them.
Gearlite point-of-use modules let you put them right where you need them. Every GearLite module ships standard with flexible mounting accessories and a universal power supply. They feature a compact design, so they fit almost anywhere, be it in a rack, on stage, behind a monitor or in a fly pack.
Small and compact doesn’t mean you need to settle for lower-grade processing. Our GearLite mini converter and distribution modules are built using the same high quality components and processing as our modular solutions, giving you broadcast-grade signal handling for SDI, 3G-SDI, 12G-SDI, fiber, audio and HDMI.

greenMachine HDR Evie+
The greenMachine HDR Evie+ (Enhanced Video Image Engine), 1 RU half 19” rackmount, is a real-time segmented frame-by-frame broadcast-quality High Dynamic Range (HDR) to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) converter, with frame sync supporting formats up to 4K UHD (3840x2160). It is the world’s first system that uses the advanced algorithm for sectional dynamic tone mapping, which automatically analyzes different sections of an image in HDR stream and applies optimal corrections on a frame by frame basis in real-time. This unique capability is unlike any other solution today. It is the perfect real-time production tool for sports or any live broadcast event needing high-quality real-time HDR to SDR conversions. HDR EVIE+ fits best in the single native HDR workflow reducing the cost of equipment and manual operations.
The sectional dynamic tone mapping technique is applied to several spatial areas (sectors) in the image. In this type of tone mapping technique, the algorithm adjusts the signal by using several dynamic curves, one per image segment/sector. The algorithm then combines the result with global dynamic curves based on the entire image. While the dynamic curves of the different sectors are perfectly adapted to the respective image content of their segments, the global curve is perfectly adapted to the content of the entire image. Depending on the image content within these sectors, the algorithm reacts dynamically, which allows lights and shadows to be treated independently. Therefore, dark areas can be brightened, and the bright areas can be darkened without getting a flat gradation of the image. “
HDR EVIE+ provides a 1x 4K/UHD processing channel supporting down-conversion from HDR transfer characteristics to SDR through appropriate sectional dynamic tone mapping. It also supports the Wide Color Gamut (WCG) needs of broadcasters and professional AV live events requirements. HDR Evie+ package also includes HDR Static configuration for Static HDR SDR conversions, which performs static tone mapping to realize UP/Down/Cross conversions between HDR and SDR, suited best for the studios or the environments where the light conditions do not change dynamically.

Smart-telecaster Zao-S
The Zao-S is a portable video H.265 HEVC encoder that compresses video in real-time, enabling full HD live video streaming to anywhere from anywhere, all while on the move. The equipped H.265 video compression is the most efficient standard for encoding and compression on the market today. As a result, the Zao-S enables constant HD video quality, low latency, and the freedom to transmit live video from across the globe. The Zao-S is made in Japan and features the high quality craftsmanship that Japanese products are known for. The Zao-S is constantly being improved as our engineers develop new features and increase its capabilities.
Sophisticated Multi-Network Bonding Technology - RASCOW
The Zao-S allows up to 3 external USB modems to be bonded together to form a single connection via 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi, and/or satellite. When transmitting video live over the mobile network, many factors such as the carriers being used, cell tower locations, and varying bandwidth levels affect video quality. Our proprietary protocol, RASCOW, monitors these factors along with the changing mobile signal strength in real-time and adapts the most optimum bonded combination of the network connections. The Zao-S, with the RASCOW protocol, continues to reliably send high quality video even when signal strengths become low or fluctuate rapidly.
Sleek. Compact. Mobile.
The Zao-S maximizes mobility without sacrificing quality. Due to its lightness (about 350g) and portability, the Zao-S can be carried with a body strap or be mounted on a camera. The compact design, and one hour internal battery, make the Zao-S an excellent choice for drone applications as well.

TICO-XS IP cores
TICO-XS is a smart upgrade path to manage higher resolutions (4K, 8K, …) and frame rates while assuring visual quality, keeping power and bandwidth at a reasonable budget and significantly reducing the complexity and cost of a system, a chip or an infrastructure.
Applications:
From 3G-SDI to IP in 4K
The mapping of the TICO-XS mezzanine compression to carry UHDTV 4K 60P over a single 3G-SDI cable has been specified in the SMPTE RDD35. intoPIX provides the needed building blocks to create a 4K over 3G-SDI solutions. Have a look at the intoPIX TICO-XS IP-cores and peripheral IP to map the compression over SDI.
4K with TICO compression over SMPTE2022-6
As SMPTE ST2022-6, defines the transport of HD-SDI or 3G-SDI over IP, using TICO-XS, it is easy to leverage an existing SMPTE 2022-6 system to carry up to three UHDTV 4K 60P streams over a single 10 GbE port using the SMPTE 2022-6 standard.
SMPTE 2110 and TICO compression
SMPTE ST2110-22 specifies the transport of compressed video over IP (including JPEG-XS), enabling you to transport any video formats over IP with full flexibility and all the benefits of TICO-XS compression.
8K over a single 10GbE
It has already been proven. TICO-XS can enable you to carry with lossless quality a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 10GbE link using TICO RTP payload and a SMPTE 2110-22 transport.
8K over a single 12G-SDI
It has already been proven. TICO-XS can enable you to carry a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 12G-SDI link with lossless quality.
TCP Link for ATEM

Defining parameters – single or multiple - for inputs/outputs is extremely fast, thanks to the drop-down menu structure in UniSketch OS. Connect and control up to 8 devices at the same time!
The general-purpose I/O controllers offer 8/16 inputs and 8/16 outputs, all electrically separated with quality relays and optocouplers. GPO is implemented with relays shorting to GND. GPI implemented with optical isolators shorted to GND.
Please notice: SKAARHOJ Controllers with GPI inputs accept open collector and relay outputs (pulled to GND). The default HD15 tally connector on the TriCaster TC1 does not provide a direct working signal to the ETH-GPI Link. Converting the 5V potential to GND is needed.
Features
- 1 x DB25 Connector Configuration
- 8 GPO
- 8 GPI
- Ethernet with PoE (IEEE802.3af)
- Made in Denmark

Atomos AtomX Modules
The AtomX Ethernet/NDI Expansion Module for Ninja V from Atomos provides a GigE connector supporting NDI input and output with encode, decode, control, and sync capability, allowing you to transmit, distribute, or receive and monitor NDI from any NDI source. The module connects to the Ninja V\'s AtomX expansion port. After it\'s attached, it also becomes the Ninja\'s battery plate. It accepts the Ninja\'s battery, which then powers both devices at the same time.
The AtomX SYNC Expansion Module for Ninja V from Atomos adds wireless timecode, sync, and Bluetooth control to the Ninja V monitor. You can sync and/or control 1000+ Ninja V units equipped with these modules on the same network at ranges up to 984\' in efficient multicam shoots.
