@Clear -Com is taking intercom beyond traditional infrastructure with the launch of FreeSpeak Cell at NAB 2026.
Built around cellular connectivity, the system is designed for productions that need fast deployment, remote collaboration, and reliable comms without complex setup.
As workflows become more distributed, the ability to spin up professional communications almost anywhere is becoming increasingly valuable.
No giant RF plan. No drama. Just comms.
@Enensys Technologies is leaning hard into IP.
At NAB 2026, the focus was clear: ST 2110 monitoring, stream security, and targeted ad insertion that actually works at scale.
Their StreamProbe platform continues to evolve, giving broadcasters real visibility across the entire chain, not just a slice of it.
Add in support for ATSC 3.0 and DTV+, and it’s a solid play for anyone building out reliable, revenue-ready IP workflows.
Moving to IP is great… until bandwidth bites back.
@Artel Video Systems is tackling that head-on with a new ST 2110 gateway using JPEG XS compression—delivering up to 20x bandwidth efficiency without sacrificing quality.
What that means in the real world: • SDI to IP without blowing out your network • Ultra-low latency for live workflows • Bi-directional encode/decode in a single platform • Built-in redundancy for reliability
Less bandwidth stress. More usable IP workflows.

Big thanks to everyone that came out to our @Roland Professional A/V Roadshow last night. And special thanks to expert, Kyle Nagy, for making the trip and allowing all of us a play on the brand new Roland V-1- 4K video switcher.
Before we head off into the long weekend, here are a few snaps from the night. More to come!
Radio workflows… but make them less painful.
Quu Inc. and @Orban have teamed up to integrate visual radio directly into the Orban OPTIMOD 5950 HD—no external PCs required.
What that actually means:
• Metadata ingest and correction in real time
• Synchronized visual messaging for ads and promos
• Direct output to RDS
• One box instead of a rack of “stuff that kind of talks to each other”
Less hardware, fewer failure points, and a much cleaner path to getting content onto the dashboard.
Honestly… about time.
