ENG Cam STREAM package by CP Communications

CP Communications has added a fourth system to its growing Red House Streaming (RHS) family of STREAM content acquisition solutions. Now shipping, ENG Cam STREAM enables broadcast-quality production and bonded cellular streaming “at a low price point” to provide connectivity from most locations. ENG Cam STREAM will receive its public debut at the 2020 NAB Show, taking place April 19-22 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. CP Communications exhibits in the Mobile Viewpoint booth at SU6110.

ENG Cam STREAM provides live 1080p HD content acquisition, bonded cellular networking and IP streaming in a plug-and-play package. The solution lets camera operators capture and stream their live shots—via 4G/3G, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet—to TV studio servers, or directly to Facebook, YouTube, and other web URLs.

Shipping in a single flight case, ENG Cam STREAM includes a Sony PXW-X400 XDCAM camcorder with a Canon 18x zoom lens, and supports one or two channels of live 1080p HD video, with up to eight embedded audio channels.  The camera integrates a Mobile Viewpoint (MVP) Agile AirLink (H.265/H.264) encoder to harness the bonded cellular bandwidth of eight separate modems, providing fast upload speeds over Wi-Fi. ENG Cam STREAM users can use any SIM cards and 4G/3G data plan they choose.. The package also contains an Elvid on-camera field monitor, Sennheiser ME67 shotgun microphone, Sennheiser MD46 ENG handheld microphone, and camera-mounted LED light kit.

“ENG Cam STREAM integrates everything that news teams and content creators need into a lightweight, turnkey solution at an attractive package price,” said Kurt Heitmann, CEO, CP Communications. “The system makes it much easier and more affordable to cover news wherever it happens, which is especially important in a year that includes our presidential election and the Summer Games in Tokyo.”

CP Communications’ systems, which the company will demonstrate at NAB again this year, serve a variety of single- to multi-camera productions. All four STREAM systems are available to rent or purchase.

  • Cam STREAM, a broadcast-quality, single- or dual-camera acquisition system with streaming over Ethernet, WiFi, and/or bonded cellular.
  • MultiCam STREAM, which supports up to four cameras, 32 audio channels, and data (such as return tally and four-wire intercom); and delivers separate SDI cameras feeds or a single, multiplexed stream.
  • Production STREAM, which supports up to seven cameras and sources, with tally and intercom, and integrates Simplylive video switching and Dante-enabled audio mixing.

“ENG Cam STREAM expands the capabilities and application range of our broader STREAM family, and strengthen our value proposition as a provider of IP/bonded cellular systems integrated with traditional video production technologies and services,” adds Heitmann.
