Net Insight developed a full IP JPEG XS system combining low-latency, real-time production with higher processing capacity, without increasing complexity or infrastructure costs.
Net Insight has developed a full-IP JPEG XS system, targeting broadcasters and media companies looking to meet the demands of scaling live production to higher UHD and full HD volumes. It will be shown at NAB Show 2026.
The system is based on a standards-compliant, high-density IP media architecture designed to combine ultra-low-latency, real-time production with a much higher processing capacity. Meanwhile, it avoids increasing operational complexity or infrastructure costs.
The central hardware implementation is capable of handling up to 192 Full HD or 90 UHD JPEG XS streams per device within ST 2110 environments. The platform supports visually lossless UHD and Full HD contribution at efficient bitrates, making it possible for media organisations to expand production capacity while cutting operational overhead at the same time.
The architecture consolidates media processing, switching and security demarcation within a single IP media platform, removing the need for additional devices between network domains. As a modular extension, it can be matched to Net Insight's 400G IP backbone and backhaul transport, enabling large workflows to be consolidated into fewer high-capacity links, thereby improving network utilisation and lowering total cost of ownership as production volumes grow.
"JPEG XS has already proven its value with Tier 1 broadcasters operating at high capacity, where performance, reliability and interoperability are non-negotiable," said Andreas Eriksson, Chief Executive of Net Insight. "This full IP solution takes the next step by combining open standards, ultra-dense media processing and deep IP expertise into a future-proof architecture for live production."
The solution has been deployed in live broadcast environments where SDI and IP infrastructure coexist over the long term, and where workflows span permanent facilities, temporary venues and partner-operated networks. Multi-vendor interoperability testing is said to support gradual adoption of ST 2110 without forced equipment replacement or additional operational risk.
The platform is fully integrated with Nimbra Live Intelligence, which unifies monitoring, control and automation across edge, aggregation and core layers. Live Intelligence allows live media environments built across networks, clouds and organisations to operate predictably, visibly and controllably even under extreme conditions. Net Insight says this integration reduces manual intervention, over-provisioning and operational risk during high-stakes live events. netinsight.net
