Live production has historically required multiple video converters and software platforms for differing workflow needs, and remote production typically requires additional complexity and conversion; especially with cloud integration. Viz Connect Tetra addresses these common issues by uniting everything needed for remote live contribution into one device.

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.

It helps meet the ever-changing demands of multi-camera, on-location, live productions with 4 flexible channels supporting up to 4K with no compromise. Viz Connect Tetra’s I/O channels can be used as up to 12G NDI to SDI, 12G SDI to NDI or even NDI to NDI – at home in a server room rack as it is on a desk, on location, wherever connection is needed.

Tetra’s in-built white balance and color correction tools mean these all-important quality adjustments can be made directly at the point of conversion. It brings never-before-seen flexibility in audio, whether it’s NDI®, SDI, ASIO and WDM virtual SoundCards. Each of the four IO channels support 16x16 audio routing for patching on the go, making it easy to respond to any live production requirement. To put it simply: Tetra truly enables easier video and audio conversion, anywhere in the world.

Video productions also rely on collaboration. With simpler access to the cloud with NDI 6, Tetra features access to NDI Bridge, which means it can send and receive NDI for remote production. The compact converter allows users to seamlessly enable production capabilities with cloud and remote productions – without additional hardware.

Viz Connect Tetra helps remote content creators to securely connect, expand their sources, and create a private peer-to-peer content network. It integrates video and audio feeds from different locations into a single NDI or SDI live production environment via an NDI Bridge Host in the data center. With NDI Bridge Join mode, Viz Connect Tetra systems can be securely linked to NDI® Bridge Hosts anywhere worldwide. Enabling bi-directional sharing of content and contribution between any location with internet or WAN access – thus facilitating the collaborative process in productions.

Effortlessly connecting to TriCaster, Vizrt graphics solutions, and other NDI and SDI live production systems, Viz Connect Tetra can be used either on premises or in the cloud, from any location. NDI Bridge’s built-in encoding capabilities empower users to choose from NDI High Bandwidth or NDI HX with bandwidth control – suiting almost any connectivity constraints. Additionally, Tetra bridges the gap between HTML 5 Graphics tools, Traditional SDI infrastructure and the world of NDI® IP technology.

With seamless connectivity to a multitude of post-production tools, Viz Connect Tetra enables access to flexible, cloud-based, and remote production environments. This capability extends to postproduction, NDI® enabled Postproduction Systems, editors; even producers and directors no longer need to be in the same room.

Viz Connect Tetra’s compact footprint with 12G 4K UHD output, and the inherent secure encryption workflow provided by NDI® Bridge, with the data center host in control of connections, makes it the perfect desktop companion for post-production professionals to land their program output to broadcast-grade displays, wherever they are, even if operating via remote desktop systems many miles away.

Viz Connect Tetra rolls all you need for remote live contribution into one device, revolutionizing workflow, scalability, and stability for live productions. It simplifies remote, local, and hybrid content creation in a portable workstation.
