SDI-To-2110: Navigating Vendor Interop, Latency & Team Readiness

The IP Shift Isn’t Coming. It’s Here.

As more facilities embrace ST 2110-based infrastructure, the move away from SDI isn’t just inevitable – it’s already happening. But it’s far from simple. For every milestone achieved, a new set of challenges emerges.

This episode is dedicated to the realities of phased IP rollouts -where SDI and IP must coexist, vendor interoperability is assumed but not guaranteed, and engineering teams are being asked to master networking overnight.
