Cal Media 5100

The Model 5100 is our next-generation openGear® modular broadcast delay card, engineered specifically for live feeds, broadcasts, and sporting events. One card can deliver 25+ seconds of delay for a single 1080p/60 channel, or 12+ seconds of delay each for two 1080p/60 channels. Combining two cards will provide up to 12+ seconds of delay at 4K-UHD. This gives operators a fail-safe window to intercept and block profanity, verbal outbursts, or visual incidents. Alternatively, it can be used to ensure seamless audio/video synchronization with other equipment, streams, or venue acoustics.
