Riedel Acrobat provides Wireless Communications for SIS Live's Brand-New Siscaster

(PresseBox) (Amsterdam, Netherlands, )
Riedel Communication, one of the leading manufacturers of intercom, fiber and radio technology for the broadcast market, has started shipping Acrobat Digital Wireless Intercom. One of the first clients is SIS LIVE, who installed an Acrobat system in their brand-new SISCaster HD compact OB vehicle.

SIS LIVE has developed a new high definition SNG and mobile production unit, SISCaster HD, which offers a completely new approach to outside broadcasting. The vehicle is optimized for live broadcasting, web streaming and mobile content delivery, opening up new opportunities for multi-platform event coverage. To maximize the versatility and to minimize production costs, all wireless components are based on license-free technologies. This eliminates frequency coordination and allows a more flexible use of the vehicle.

SISCaster HD, which is on display at the IBC Outside Exhibition area, features one of the first installations of Riedel's Acrobat Digital Wireless Intercom systems. "We're blown away by the audio quality and the performance of Acrobat", says Alan Lythaby, Engineering Manager at SIS Live. The Acrobat installation includes one CC-8 Cell Controller, two active CA-6 antennas and six Acrobat WB-2 wireless intercom beltpacks. Acrobat is an easy to use full-duplex wireless communications solution, which provides a license-free, cellular architecture with seamless hand-over between cells. It allows both partyline and point-to-point communications.

SISCaster SD is available now and HD will be available to hire or buy from early 2010.
