The Serv series expands with this new addition, Serv Micro, which is a mobile streaming and wireless video solution announced by Teradek during the Los Angeles edition of Cine Gear Expo. Serv Micro was first demonstrated at booth 565 in the West Hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center. The new product expands the option for the Serv family, which includes Serv 4K, the 4K HDR solution, and Serv Pro, a HD-SDI solution, all under the banner “Color-accurate. Instantly reviewable. Ultra-secure.”
Although the Serv Pro solution has been around for a while, the Serv 4K model was introduced last April, as Teradek’s 4K HDR hardware/software production-streaming solution that’s easy to set up, manage, and access. The new solution was one of the highlights at 2022 NAB Show, as the new Serv Micro was one of the key products displayed at 2022 Cine Gear Expo.
“Serv Micro is our most accessible Serv product, integrating wifi-based wireless video with off-set streaming setups for real-time collaboration, no matter the size of a production budget” said Greg Smokler, GM of Cine at Creative Solutions. “With an easy-to-use cloud workflow and simple tools for sharing and viewing, collaboration has never been simpler.”
