Bridge Technologies has announced support for Blackmagic Design's open IP10 codec within its VB440 production probe. This integration allows for monitoring of high-frame-rate Ultra HD video over 10 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure in ST 2110 environments.
This integration provides a pragmatic bridge for broadcasters who need the benefits of ST 2110 but lack the budget for high-bandwidth 200GE switching. By supporting a license-free, open codec that fits Ultra HD into 10GbE pipes, Bridge Technologies ensures its VB440 remains the standard monitoring tool for remote production and OB trucks where infrastructure is constrained. This move reinforces a shift toward interoperable, lightweight compression standards over proprietary alternatives in the IP transition. Watch for whether other probe manufacturers adopt the open IP10 standard to compete for mid-market broadcast facilities.
The industry continues to prioritize IP10 codec features as part of a broader push toward flexible, software-defined monitoring solutions. Broadcasters looking to integrate these workflows with legacy systems can also utilize InSync Technology IBC2026 modules to bridge SDI and ST 2110 environments.
