Compact live production switcher

The ATEM Television Studio HD8 is a compact live production switcher with a built-in broadcast control panel. It provides a fully featured broadcast quality live production studio with 8 standards converted 3G-SDI inputs. The unit includes built in streaming, master recorder, multiview, USB webcam support, DVE, 4 ATEM Advanced Chroma Keyers, media players, talkback, 4 way Ethernet switch and optional internal cloud media storage. It is designed for portable high-end work in small venues without equipment racks.

Limits of 3G-SDI inputs and auxiliary outputs

The switcher uses 8 standards converted 3G-SDI inputs which accept various video formats and frame rates automatically. Only 2 auxiliary outputs are available for external monitoring or recording feeds. The 4 ATEM Advanced Chroma Keyers and 2 downstream keyers share the processing resources of the single unit. Internal cloud media storage is optional and not included by default. Buyers who want more than 8 inputs or additional aux outputs need a larger production switcher.

Rackmount installation

The compact design allows portable use on a desk or installation in a standard equipment rack. The 4 way Ethernet switch simplifies cabling for streaming, control panels and optional cloud storage. Talkback requires compatible headsets connected to the panel for crew communication. USB webcam support works with standard UVC devices for software integration. Builders who need redundant power supplies or hot-swappable modules should consider a modular broadcast chassis.
