Regional Chinese broadcast station NanfangTV has commissioned a new HD OB vehicle to help serve ist 100m audience.
The truck operates 14-cameras and uses Riedel Artist digital matrix intercom and Performer digital partyline technology installed by RacPro. Centred on an Artist 64 digital matrix intercom mainframe with 16 2000 series LCD control panels, the intercom frame is equipped with redundant CPUs and power supplies. AIO client cards integrate 4-wire signals into the intercom, while two Riedel Connect Solo interfaces allow for the connection of Pots telephones to the intercom infrastructure. An additional Riedel Performer digital partyline system is installed in the truck to provide communications between the director and the cameraman. ‘The solution with an extra Performer installation gives us maximum system reliability. The seamless integration of both systems makes the daily operation really convenient and expands the installation,’ said Chen Wenfei at Nanfang TV.
The Performer setup comprises ten digital partyline beltpacks and a C44 system interface that also integrates the partyline installation into the Artist infrastructure. A total of 20 Riedel Pro headsets are used in the truck.
