Pixel Power PRISMON Increases European Footprint with Key Customer Deployments

At the end of 2024 Pixel Power (A Rohde & Schwarz Company) announced that our company had become the sole sales and support destination for PRISMON, the innovative multiviewer and media monitoring platform. Since then, successful meetings and demonstrations at NAB Show New York, NAB Show Las Vegas and MPTS in London have led to new customer deployments, with PRISMON now being preferred by France Télévisions, Germany’s SWR, SRF in Switzerland, and VRT and RTBF, the Flemish and French-language public broadcasters in Belgium. As we approach IBC in Amsterdam in September, PRISMON continues to gather interest across Europe thanks to its ‘deploy anywhere’ software-defined architecture, its scalability, and its ability to integrate the latest IP/2110 signals with legacy/SDI formats within the same user interface.      

“PRISMON gives us the important ability to say ‘it doesn’t matter’ when customers ask us about signal formats”, notes Pixel Power’s VP of Sales & Marketing James Gilbert. “We’ve deliberately taken this format-agnostic approach so that customers can benefit from one single platform and one single UI regardless of what signals they are monitoring. This avoids costly and complex duplication of systems and really helps drive workflow efficiency”. As an example, France Télévisions was recently able to consolidate five master control suites down into one room thanks to PRISMON, while still providing the control and quality monitoring demanded by a major broadcaster.

Several recent PRISMON deployments have been managed by DigiNet, Pixel Power’s channel partner in Belgium and the Netherlands. Karl Imbrechts, Dries Tastenhoye and Robert Vander Meulen at DigiNet all see PRISMON as a compelling proposition for broadcasters. “The biggest problem with most multiviewer and media monitoring platforms available today is that they simply don’t allow broadcasters to mix and match signal formats. Nobody wants to be running multiple systems in parallel or working across multiple UIs, so PRISMON offers a clear advantage here. Add in the fact it can be deployed as a hardware appliance, as software on customer-supplied hardware or in the cloud, the robust Linux architecture and its powerful built-in security features, and you have an ideal and highly scalable solution for hybrid workflows, regardless of where you are on your IP-migration journey”.

Pixel Power will be attending IBC in Amsterdam (12-15^th September) and will be demonstrating PRISMON throughout the event on stand 7.B23.  To book a discovery discussion with us during IBC, please click here.
