BZBGEAR to Showcase End-to-End Broadcast Chain at IBC2026

At IBC2026, BZBGEAR will present a fully integrated broadcast chain, from camera acquisition to fiber transport, in Hall 11, Stand 11.A26. The demonstration aims to show how broadcasters can build a seamless workflow using BZBGEAR's range of products, addressing the common challenge of integrating multiple components from different vendors. By wiring together PTZ cameras, a production switcher, an encoder-decoder-recorder, and fiber transport, BZBGEAR offers a cohesive solution that can simplify system design and deployment.

The acquisition layer features BZBGEAR's award-winning ADAMO PTZ cameras in NDI|HX 3 and Dante AV-H versions. The BG-ADAMO-4KND and BG-ADAMO-4KDA models output up to 4K@60Hz over HDMI 2.0 and 12G-SDI, with 12X or 25X optical zoom. AI-powered auto-tracking in Presenter and Zone modes enables hands-free operation, while integrated tally lights and an onboard microSD writer (up to 1TB) provide practical benefits for live production. The BG-ADAMO-JRND and BG-ADAMO-JRDA offer 1080p@60Hz with similar control workflows, allowing broadcasters to mix 4K and HD cameras under a single control surface.

For production, the BG-Commander-UltraX combines a 4K production switcher and PTZ joystick controller in a portable unit. It features four HDMI inputs, a 7-inch touchscreen, a 4D joystick, and a sliding T-bar. Built-in chroma key, picture-in-picture, and logo overlay are included, and the USB-C webcam output allows the program feed to be used directly in streaming or conferencing platforms. Recording to USB or SD card is possible without a PC, and camera control is via ONVIF 2.8 and VISCA over IP.

The BG-STREAM-DE encoder-decoder-recorder handles IP transport, accepting SDI or HDMI inputs and encoding H.265 or H.264 up to 1080p@60Hz, with output up to 3840x2160p@60Hz. It supports SRT, RTMP, HLS, RTSP, and TS over UDP, with NDI and Dante AV-H available under separate license. Audio embed/de-embed and USB 3.0 recording provide flexibility for various workflows.

Finally, the BG-IPGEAR-XTREME-F fiber transport system carries 8K@60Hz 4:4:4 with DSC 1.2a, uncompressed 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, and visually lossless 4K@144Hz 4:4:4 over single-mode fiber up to 10 kilometers at zero-frame latency. It also supports RS-232, IR, CEC, 1G Ethernet, and USB KVM over the same fiber, eliminating ground loops and EMI issues common with copper connections.

Eugene Bocharov, CEO of BZBGEAR, emphasized the importance of an end-to-end solution: "Every broadcaster we talk to is solving the same problem from four different directions at once — how to acquire it, how to cut it, how to get it on the network, and how to move it across a campus or a city. Showing one box at a time doesn't answer that. So this year we're bringing the whole chain to Hall 11 and running it end to end, and our engineers will be standing next to it for four days. Bring us the path that won't hold and we'll work it out on the stand." This approach allows attendees to see the entire workflow in action and discuss specific integration challenges with BZBGEAR's engineers.

The demonstration at IBC2026 underscores BZBGEAR's commitment to providing comprehensive solutions for broadcast and AV professionals. By offering a complete chain, BZBGEAR enables customers to reduce complexity, ensure compatibility, and streamline their operations. For more information, visit bzbgear.com.
