Clear-Com has showcased the solutions used to enable broadcasters to cover the recent solar eclipse.
The company provided NBC KXAS and Telemundo KXTX with equipment that facilitated their coverage of the phenomenon. Clear-Com’s appropriately-named Eclipse HX Digital Matrix intercom system and Agent-IC software enabled real-time coordination and communication among broadcasters, said the company.
“Our Agent-IC technology empowered broadcasters to stay connected and in control, whether on-site or remotely. We are proud to have played a crucial role in enabling NBC KXAS and Telemundo KXTX to deliver exceptional coverage of this monumental event,” said John Kruman, Clear-Com business development manager.
Used by both station producers and on-the-ground anchors, the company’s Agent-IC app provided real-time communication and monitoring capabilities, enhancing production workflows and ensuring smooth coordination throughout the broadcast.
Martin Dzurenko, engineer at NBC KXAS and Telemundo KXTX said: “We utilised Clear-Com’s Eclipse HX Digital Matrix intercom system and Agent-IC software to facilitate 28 live shots, seamlessly transmitting content back to our studios. The flexibility of Agent-IC running on iPads and cell phones allowed our producers to efficiently produce the shows while maintaining constant communication with the studio.”
