At IBC2026, BZBGEAR will present a complete camera-to-fiber broadcast chain, demonstrating how acquisition, production, encoding, and transport can operate as a unified system. The company will occupy Hall 11, Stand 11.A26 at the RAI Amsterdam from September 11–14, 2026, and run the entire chain continuously for all four days. This approach matters because most industry exhibitions isolate individual components, leaving integration challenges unresolved. By wiring together four critical stages—acquire, produce, encode, and transport—BZBGEAR aims to show broadcasters a practical, end-to-end solution that reduces complexity and ensures reliability from capture to distribution.
The acquisition layer features BZBGEAR’s award-winning ADAMO PTZ cameras in NDI|HX 3 and Dante AV-H versions. The BG-ADAMO-4KND and BG-ADAMO-4KDA output up to 4K@60Hz over HDMI 2.0 and 12G-SDI, with 12X or 25X optical zoom. AI-powered auto-tracking in Presenter and Zone modes enables hands-free operation, while integrated red/green LED tally lights and an onboard microSD writer that records up to 1 TB of 4K video provide iso recording without additional hardware. Data, power, and control travel over a single category cable. The BG-ADAMO-JRND and BG-ADAMO-JRDA offer the same control workflow at 1080p@60Hz with 12X, 20X, and 30X zoom options, allowing a 4K hero angle and HD coverage to be managed from one control surface.
Production is handled by the BG-Commander-UltraX, an all-in-one 4K production switcher and PTZ joystick controller with onboard recording. It accepts four HDMI inputs up to 4K@30Hz, provides separate program and monitor outputs, and includes a 7-inch touchscreen, a 4D control joystick, a step-less knob, and a sliding T-bar. Built-in chroma key, picture-in-picture, logo overlay, and a full transition set manage production in the box. A USB-C webcam output feeds the program directly into streaming or conferencing platforms as a virtual camera, and recording goes to a USB drive or SD card without a PC in the signal path. Camera control is over ONVIF 2.8 and VISCA over IP.
The encoding stage is represented by the BG-STREAM-DE, a one-channel SDI/HDMI encoder, decoder, and recorder. It encodes H.265 or H.264 at up to 1080p@60Hz and outputs to 3840x2160p@60Hz. SDI and HDMI loop-through preserve the local feed while the signal is contributed. Transport options include SRT, RTMP, HLS, RTSP over HTTP/TCP/UDP, and TS over UDP in unicast or multicast, with NDI and Dante AV-H available under separate license. Audio embed and de-embed run over 3.5 mm connectors, and USB 3.0 recording to MP4, TS, or MOV provides a safety copy.
Finally, the BG-IPGEAR-XTREME-F fiber transport pair carries 8K@60Hz 4:4:4 with DSC 1.2a, uncompressed 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, and visually lossless 4K@144Hz 4:4:4 across single-mode fiber to 10 kilometers (6.25 miles) at zero-frame latency, with 48Gbps of video bandwidth (FRL 6) and HDCP 2.3. Full-duplex RS-232, bi-directional wideband IR, CEC pass-through, 1G Ethernet pass-through, and USB 3.1 Gen1/Gen2 KVM all ride the same fiber, eliminating ground loops and EMI that come with copper between structures.
“Every broadcaster we talk to is solving the same problem from four different directions at once — how to acquire it, how to cut it, how to get it on the network, and how to move it across a campus or a city,” said Eugene Bocharov, CEO of BZBGEAR. “Showing one box at a time doesn't answer that. So this year we're bringing the whole chain to Hall 11 and running it end to end, and our engineers will be standing next to it for four days. Bring us the path that won't hold and we'll work it out on the stand.”
BZBGEAR engineers will be available daily at Stand 11.A26, and attendees are encouraged to bring system drawings, bills of materials, or distance and bandwidth figures for working technical discussions. For more information, visit bzbgear.com.
