Sprolink shows a compact broadcast workflow built around portable live production switchers, NDI, HDMI, SDI, PTZ control, ISO recording and integrated streaming. The main focus is the MC-NDI style 8-channel switcher, combining four SDI inputs, four HDMI inputs and support for up to eight NDI sources, with 4K HDMI input, Full HD SDI/NDI handling, PDF and web browser sources, animated logos, lower thirds and SuperSource-style multi-layer layouts. https://www.sprolink.com/

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

The system is described as an FPGA plus Linux architecture, which helps explain why Sprolink is putting switching, graphics, instant replay and recording into a relatively compact all-in-one unit. Built-in instant replay can capture the program feed and play back a short clip directly from the switcher, while ISO recording records the individual inputs together with the program output, reducing the need for extra replay or recording hardware in small sports, church, education and event production setup.
The booth also includes larger and smaller Sprolink live production models, including 10-channel laptop-style switchers, 4-channel HDMI/SDI models, 5-channel portable live streaming switchers and versions with physical audio faders. The product direction is clear: combine multi-view monitoring, program output, media playback, audio mixing, RTMP-style live streaming, recording and camera control into devices that can travel easily but still support professional signal workflow.
PTZ operation is another important part of the demo. Sprolink shows joystick control for NDI/PTZ sources, a dedicated PTZ keyboard, and device-side auto-tracking that can add tracking behavior even with older PTZ cameras that do not have built-in tracking. This makes the setup interesting for productions with multiple robotic cameras, remote operators, fixed installations, or smaller teams trying to cover more angles without a full camera crew.
Filmed at NAB 2026 in Las Vegas, the interview also covers 4K HDMI and SDI output, active optical HDMI cables for long-distance runs of around 100 meters, and a wireless transmitter supporting HDMI and USB-C video sources at up to 4K30 over 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz with a claimed range of around 300 meters. Sprolink positions these tools for churches, live events, football and soccer coverage, streaming studios and multi-camera production where NDI, HDMI, SDI, PTZ and portable switching need to work together in one practical kit.
