Who's it for?

Technical leaders and champions of broadcasters and system integrators.

Technical directors of end users and manufacturers.

Technically interested event attendees.

If you'd like hands-on IS-04 and IS-05 NMOS experience, this is for you. You'll walk away with the knowledge that “plug and play” between products from different manufacturers is achievable and low risk.

If you are using or plan to use ST 2110 at your station or facility, then this is for you.

What to expect:

Hands-on experience with NMOS.

You'll get insight into how NMOS works. If you already know what NMOS is in general but have never been exposed to how it actually works, this is for you.

The session will take you from zero to a running NMOS environment, a tour through typical NMOS flows, based on real-life products.

Curriculum will be easy to understand and will focus on how NMOS/REST/Websockets work.

Visualize the protocols / communication and get an introduction to well-known tools to analyze NMOS network commands.

You'll receive bonus resources for further reading covering work in development, IPMX, and more.
