At IBC2026 we speak with Dave MacKinnon from Clear-Com about FreeSpeak Cell, a new cellular intercom solution bringing flexible connectivity beyond traditional wireless systems.Dave explains how FreeSpeak Cell uses cellular technology to extend intercom coverage for applications including stadiums, events and large venues, while integrating with existing Clear-Com systems. We also discuss private networks, priority SIM options and how the solution works alongside FreeSpeak Edge, FreeSpeak 2 and other Clear-Com workflows.Learn more at https://www.clearcom.com/#ClearCom #IBC2026 #Intercom

At IBC2026 we speak with Kevin on the Leader PHABRIX stand about the importance of synchronisation and timing in modern broadcast facilities.Kevin explains how the Leader PHABRIX LT4670 provides a hybrid synchronisation solution, supporting both IP and SDI workflows with PTP, 12G test patterns, IP test signals, black burst and tri-level sync. We discuss how reliable timing helps engineers maintain complex facilities, as well as the role of tools such as SIS log for faster fault finding.We also take a look at the Leader PHABRIX QxP waveform monitor and how it helps engineers analyse PTP and SDI signals.Find out more at www.leaderphabrix.com#LeaderPhabrix #IBC2026 #BroadcastEngineering 

At IBC2026 we speak with Dave MacKinnon from Clear-Com about Avalon IP Station, a compact IP intercom solution designed for smaller production environments.Dave explains how Avalon provides the core functionality of the Arcadia platform in a more streamlined and cost-effective format, making it suitable for OB vans, remote production, TV stations and smaller workflows.We also discuss how Avalon supports Clear-Com panels, party line, point-to-point communication and other intercom applications.Learn more at https://www.clearcom.com/#ClearCom #IBC2026 #Intercom

At IBC2026 we spoke with François Legrand and Willem Vermost from AMWA about DMF and the future of software-based media infrastructure.François and Willem explain how DMF provides a framework for building flexible, scalable media environments, helping broadcasters move towards more dynamic software-based workflows. We discuss the role of layered architectures, automation, security and how initiatives such as JT-DMF and MXL (Media eXchange Layer) are helping shape the future of production.Learn more at https://www.amwa.tv/#AMWA #IBC2026 #MediaWorkflows

At IBC2026 we speak with Stefan Ledergerber from AMWA about NMOS BCP-008 and how it brings greater visibility to complex IP media workflows.Stefan explains how BCP-008 extends the NMOS family by allowing devices from different manufacturers to report their operational status in a standardised way. Using a traffic light approach, operators can quickly see whether connections, synchronisation, packet flow and network paths are healthy.The demonstration shows how multi-vendor systems using SMPTE ST 2110, PTP and ST 2022-7 redundancy can identify faults faster, helping operators build more trusted and manageable IP infrastructures.Learn more at https://www.amwa.tv/#AMWA #IBC2026 #NMOS

At IBC2026 we speak with Henry Goodman from Calrec Audio about freedom of choice across modern broadcast audio workflows.Henry explains how Calrec Audio is helping customers move towards flexible hybrid environments, supporting existing on-premise infrastructure alongside data centre platforms and software-defined workflows. We discuss the role of the Calrec ecosystem, True Control 2.0, the EBU Dynamic Media Facility (DMF) vision and how broadcasters can maximise resources as production models continue to evolve.The conversation also covers changing customer requirements, the need for greater efficiency and how Calrec is preparing for a future where hardware and software workflows work together.Learn more at https://calrec.com/#Calrec #IBC2026 #BroadcastAudio

At IBC2026 we speak with Henry Goodman from Calrec Audio about the brand new Type RT audio console, a compact solution designed for flexible broadcast and remote production workflows.Henry explains how Type RT builds on the technology behind the Type R console, adding integrated DSP, built-in I/O and compact 6, 12 and 18 fader configurations. We also discuss how the self-contained design makes it suitable for fly packs, radio, TV and smaller production environments.Find out more: www.calrec.com#IBC2026 #Calrec #TypeRT
