EVS offers advanced IP network control capabilities with new Cerebrum release

As broadcasters worldwide continue their shift to IP, this new IP Core SDN license addresses the need for tighter network management. Integrated within Cerebrum, “it allows for the control of increasingly complex network topologies without adding additional complexity for the operators,” explained Matt Salvidge, Solutions Manager at EVS, before adding: “The automatic steering of flows protects against over-subscription, whilst the monitoring capabilities allow simple troubleshooting by the engineering teams.” End-users can rest assured of the proper execution of all media flows and are automatically notified about potential network overloads for complete and real-time bandwidth awareness.

Also introduced at NAB 2022, is Cerebrum’s new web client. Users who previously had to install their Cerebrum client application on a Windows-based PC or laptop, can now view their customized control interfaces in a HTML5 web browser. This enables them to monitor and control their customized router panels and other graphical user interfaces in a more flexible way, whether from within control rooms, equipment rooms, or remotely from any device.
