This advanced live production switcher is designed for broadcasters and large production facilities transitioning to IP‑based infrastructures while maintaining absolute reliability. Built from the ground up as a fully SMPTE‑2110 native system, it supports uncompressed IP video with full SMPTE‑2022‑7 redundancy across all video connections. This guarantees uninterrupted operation, even in complex and mission‑critical live environments where failure is not an option. Each input includes its own standards converter and re‑synchroniser, automatically correcting timing and format issues to ensure stable and predictable switching. 

The hardware design reflects its professional broadcast focus. High‑capacity front‑to‑back cooling with multiple ultra‑quiet fans ensures stable thermal performance in dense racks. Dual IEC power inputs provide power redundancy, while dedicated Ethernet networks separate control, management and PTP reference traffic. A built‑in front panel LCD allows direct access to system status and configuration menus, supported by an integrated speaker and headphone output for local program monitoring. Front and rear USB‑C connections support setup, software updates and direct operation using ATEM Software Control. 

At its core, this platform delivers exceptional creative flexibility. Four independent mix effects engines enable simultaneous program outputs for complex productions. Sixteen advanced keyers support high‑quality chroma, luma and linear keying, while two SuperSource processors provide layered compositing with a total of twelve DVEs available for picture‑in‑picture, animated transitions and multi‑box layouts. Four independent multi‑views allow operators to monitor large numbers of sources with complete freedom, making it ideal for large control rooms and OB trucks.

Connectivity is equally impressive. Sixty‑four standards‑converted IP inputs and fifty‑two outputs are delivered via high‑speed 100G Ethernet, supporting large‑scale productions entirely over IP. NMOS‑compatible control networking, precise PTP timing and support for embedded audio, ancillary data and HDR metadata ensure seamless integration into modern broadcast ecosystems. This makes the unit a long‑term foundation for scalable, future‑ready live production workflows.
