Panasonic announced the new mainframe Kairos Core 200 AT-KC200L1 and software update v.1.7 for the KAIROS IT/IP platform. The AT-KC200L1, which supports SDI I/O as standard, and the new function smart routing function in version 1.7, provide customers in a wide range of video production, including not only broadcasting, events, sports but also corporates and educational markets, with improved video quality and productivity using KAIROS.
   

The AT-KC200L1 is a mainframe equipped with essentially the same functions as the second-generation Kairos Core 200 (AT-KC200) announced in June 2023, and supports 24 inputs / 12 outputs (FHD) as standard but offers more flexible video production to customers using SDI-based video production systems. In addition, up to 32 inputs/16 outputs (FHD) can be supported by installing the optional product AT-KC20M1 SDI I/O Board, released in February 2024.

Updating the software to version 1.7, enables a new function Smart Routing. This function automatically imports any video delivered on the network switch into KAIROS as required, allowing KAIROS to virtually handle a larger number of input sources. Because of this, it is no longer necessary to consider the bandwidth limitations of the video that KAIROS can receive simultaneously, making it more convenient for video production using a large number of inputs on KAIROS.
