AJA pairs BRIDGE LIVE IP launch with Comprimato acquisition

AJA Video Systems released multiple product updates and announced a strategic acquisition. Key highlights include the launch of BRIDGE LIVE IP for seamless IP media transfer, the acquisition of Comprimato to accelerate product innovation, and several firmware updates enhancing existing hardware capabilities, such as IP25-R v2.0 and Desktop Software v18.

Key Takeaways

BRIDGE LIVE IP supports up to four channels of UltraHDp60 or eight channels of 1080p60, with ST 2110, NDI, H.265, MPEG-TS, HLS, RTMP, RTMPS, and SRT support.
AJA said BRIDGE LIVE IP is available now for $17,999 US MSRP; optional NDI licensing costs $499, while JPEG 2000 and JPEG XS licenses start at $1,555.
The company entered an agreement to acquire Comprimato, whose portfolio includes Live Transcoder, Live Standards Conversion, Twenty-One SMPTE ST 2110 encoding appliance, and a JPEG 2000 Codec SDK.
IP25-R v2.0 adds Tx mode, expands Rx support to six channels, and includes an integrated test signal generator for ST 2110 setup.
Desktop Software v18 adds 10-bit RGBA support for Corvid 44 and Corvid 88, plus simultaneous capture and playout of two channels up to 1080p60 for KONA X and KONA XM.

Why It Matters

AJA is pushing deeper into IP workflows with a new BRIDGE LIVE IP gateway and a Comprimato acquisition that adds encoding and processing software to its stack. The immediate effect is a broader set of tools for ST 2110, NDI, SRT, HLS, and hybrid SDI/IP deployments, backed by new firmware and software updates across IP25-R and Desktop I/O. The ecosystem angle is clear: AJA is pairing hardware, software, and licensing options around a single transport layer. Watch the closing of the Comprimato deal and the adoption of BRIDGE LIVE IP’s $17,999 price point and optional licenses.
