Callaba Details Dejero WayPoint Integration via SRT Bridge for Streaming Workflows

This detailed integration guide clarifies the technical path for streaming professionals integrating Dejero WayPoint hardware with Callaba's ecosystem, particularly highlighting the necessity of bridging solutions for SRT transport. It underscores that while WayPoint is a receiver layer for field transmitters, it requires additional components for modern IP-based streaming protocols like SRT. The guidance helps engineers avoid common misconfigurations and plan robust workflows, emphasizing the need for specific SRT-capable hardware in the chain. Future developments will likely focus on native support for protocols like SRT and NDI directly on hardware receivers to simplify complex bridging architectures.

Dejero continues to evolve its connectivity solutions, with recent announcements highlighting moves towards broader IP format support. At IBC 2024, Dejero showcased algorithm improvements to its Smart Blending Technology, improving connection stability for its EnGo 3x mobile video transmitter and GateWay 3220 network aggregation device (Dejero, July 2024). More critically for WayPoint workflows, Dejero announced its new Linux-based virtual WayPoint receiver at IBC, which will support RTMP and RTMPS initially, with NDI and SRT support planned for future releases (Radio & Television Business Report, May 2026). This indicates Dejero's intent to provide native SRT and NDI output capabilities in its virtualized offerings, directly addressing the bridging requirements outlined in the Callaba guide for physical WayPoint units. Separately, at NAB 2026, Dejero partnered with other vendors for a "Field to Air" demonstration, utilizing SRT at 10 Mbps with a target latency of 200–300 milliseconds for encoding and distribution within a multi-partner live signal chain (TV Technology, March 2026). This underlines the growing importance of SRT for low-latency distribution in complex broadcast workflows, reinforcing the need for clear integration pathways like those Callaba details for their Gateway product.
