A highly stable and reliable system

Not only high-quality products, system camera HDC series, IP gateway, and XVS series video switcher, but also IP Live System Manager (LSM), provide very stable and reliable performance as a total 4K/IP solution. The LSM system, with its very user-friendly GUI and easy operation style is much appreciated by operators. In addition, NXLK-IP50Y, IP gateway, and stand-alone board design is safer and more stable. NXLK-IP50Y keeps upgrading for more powerful features, which is also much appreciated.
