AJA BRIDGE LIVE is a turnkey solution built for critical live video applications, combining high-performance SDI and stream-based encoding, decoding and transcoding in a single platform for demanding live workflows.

Multi-channel encoding, decoding and transcoding

BRIDGE LIVE processes up to four multi-channel UHD channels over its bidirectional 12G-SDI I/O, applying its SDI and stream-based encode, decode and transcode engine across whichever channel configuration a live event or transmission chain calls for.

Flexible 12G-SDI I/O

Flexible multi-channel 12G-SDI I/O gives BRIDGE LIVE a direct connection into an SDI production or transmission chain, alongside its stream-based encoding and decoding paths.

Dual 10GigE connectivity

Dual 10GigE connectivity handles control and transport duties over IP, alongside BRIDGE LIVE's SDI I/O.

Built for critical live infrastructure

Comprehensive metadata and closed caption support carries essential broadcast information through the signal chain end to end. The compact 1RU chassis and dual power supplies for redundancy are built for the always-on reliability that critical live and outside-broadcast deployments demand.
