TRACKING CARBON AND SPEEDING TRANSFERS Dot Group BY ANNE MORRIS
Data management specialist Dot Group is demonstrating new developments in carbon transparency and high-speed fi le transfer, addressing the broadcasting industry’s environmental compliance and operational effi ciency challenges. Central to the showcase is
GreenDot, a proprietary carbon transparency solution providing real-time monitoring of broadcast IT infrastructure. The application is said to provide insights into carbon footprint and resource utilisation, offering optimisation
data-driven decision-making. IBM Aspera Lite is also being debuted to address accessibility in high-speed fi le transfer. Described as an entry-level product for smaller broadcast operations, it is available in 100Mbps, 500Mbps and 1Gbps tiers.
GreenDot offers real-time monitoring of broadcasting carbon footprint and resource utilisation
advice and compliance-ready reports to track emissions while identifying cost-saving opportunities. Dot Group is also presenting IBM’s sustainability portfolio, including IBM Apptio for
THE NEXUS OF SMART POWER Fxlion Electronic BY DAVID FOX
The Nexus Smart Battery from Fxlion is available in V-Mount or Gold Mount versions and features an integrated smart display that provides real- time information at a glance, including charge level, power draw, voltage, remaining runtime and charging cycles. The intelligent power management offers multi-layer protection against overheating, overcharging, over-discharging
cloud cost management, IBM Turbonomic for AI-driven resource optimisation, and IBM Envizi for ESG reporting. These products are said to enable broadcasters to optimise operational costs and environmental impact through

Stand visitors can explore how the company’s integrated data management approach delivers sustainability compliance and operational effi ciency for broadcasters of all sizes. 14.D29
and overcurrent. The batteries include Sony and Red protocol support, so that compatible cameras can display real-time battery data, such as power remaining. There are three compact, durable models: the 1154g Nexus BP-190SL, a 12.8Ah, 184Wh unit that can deliver a maximum load of 15A or 180W; the 1580g BP-250SL offers 17.4Ah and 251Wh, with 18A and 250W max load; while the 1638g BP-300SL has a 20.4Ah, 294Wh capacity and the same maximum load.
DAB+ TRANSMITTER BOOST GatesAir
BY KEVIN EMMOTT
The release of a new DAB+ transmitter infrastructure boosting effi ciency by up to 50% represents a new benchmark in GatesAir’s heritage of high-effi ciency transmission. The launch affects GatesAir’s entire family of Maxiva VHF TV and DAB/DAB+ digital radio products and crosses several production lines, including VAX-T

They each have a USB-C port that allows for bidirectional PD 100W fast charging, two D-Tap
input/output connections, and a USB-A output. 12.D59
The new DAB+ transmitter infrastructure features adjustable voltage capabilities
and VAX-OP transmitters, PMTX-1 outdoor transmitters and MultiD multicarrier systems. Affecting both air-cooled (from 25W) and liquid-cooled models (up to 1kW), the new transmitters optimise EDI connectivity for enterprise-level contribution and distribution, with access to an Intraplex ultra-low- latency IP transport solution for large DAB networks. The company’s high-effi ciency transmitter design dates to the launch of its PowerSmart architecture, which represents the internal architecture
of power amplifi ers, power supplies and other technologies to improve energy use and reduce operating costs. GatesAir claims its integration
of this new transistor technology signifi cantly increases effi ciency for low to medium power transmitters. 8.B75
