Paul Flook, Head of Broadcast Engineering, told us: "The combination of the Protocol-Converters and the Cue-Patch has not only saved us money by allowing us to have a common control protocol but also allowed us to matrix the studios together. Any studio can be controlled from any gallery. This has allowed us to maintain our position as one of the leaders in broadcasting technology."
QVC UK is also using a Protocol-Converter at their Marco Polo House studios in Battersea. Broadcasting live for 17 hours a day means using products that are extremely reliable. Artistic Licence has worked with the company to meet these demanding standards, not only in the UK but also in QVC’s USA studios. The QVC studio in Philadelphia is a flagship installation for the Artistic Licence networking solution of Art-Net Ethernet.
