HUDSON, MA and GAITHERSBURG, MD: Artel Video—a brand of Patton® and producer of
Media Transport
Products—today announced the SMART openGear OG-ENDE 12G-SDI Media Delivery Platform: a cutting-edge ST2110 gateway that delivers bi-directional, multi-channel conversion between 12G-SDI and IP-based workflows.
The Year of ST2110. Marked by growing industry adoption of ST2110
technology, 2025 has been dubbed "the
year of ST2110."
Hot new product. Now, the latest hot new ST2110 product from Artel
empowers broadcasters and production facilities to modernize infrastructure
while preserving existing capital investment in SDI equipment.
"As the broadcast industry continues its transition to IP-based
workflows, the need for reliable, flexible gateway solutions has never been
greater," said Paul Seiden, Sales Director for Media Transport
Products at Patton.
Future Proof. The SMART openGear 12G-SDI card represents a significant
advancement in broadcast technology. The device supports one or two channels of
12G-SDI traffic—encapsulated into ST2110-20 and de-encapsulated back to
12G-SDI. These capabilities enable facilities to adopt IP infrastructure at
their own pace while future-proofing operations for 4K video and beyond.
"The SMART openGear 12G platform addresses this challenge head-on,
providing broadcasters with a scalable solution that bridges traditional SDI
and modern IP infrastructure without compromising quality or reliability,”
Paul said.
Advanced Features for Hybrid Workflows
- Bi-Directional Gateway – Multi-channel 12G-SDI to ST2110-20
encapsulation and de-encapsulation for flexible workflows
- Built-In Frame Synchronization – SDI inputs are synced before
encapsulation for seamless IP workflow integration
- ST2022-7 Hitless Redundancy – Dual 25GbE SFP ports provide
protection switching with packet duplication across redundant routes
- Flexible Connectivity – Four HD-BNC ports support
12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI signals, configurable as one in/one out, two in, or two out
- Comprehensive Signal Processing – Each channel processes one
video stream, four audio flows (up to 16 channels each), and one data flow
- Streamlined Management – NMOS in-band control integrates with
openGear DashBoard for remote monitoring
Long-term Strategy. The OG-ENDE enables facilities to maintain hybrid
SDI and ST2110 networks while planning long-term migration strategies.
Availability. The SMART openGear 12G-SDI ST2110
Encapsulator/De-Encapsulator is now available for pre-order with two 25G SFP
trunks and four HD-BNC ports. For more information, go to www.patton.com/artel/smart-opengear-12g
