Creating efficient tools that empower businesses

With the unprecedented changes occurring in the industry right now, there is a responsibility on technology providers to ensure that broadcasters and media owners are armed with the latest knowledge and tools that will make their lives easier.

By keeping an ear to the ground and working alongside customers, TSL continues to design products and solutions that empower customers, allowing them to take ownership of their systems and benefit from extended life-time value.

With a development roadmap steeped in engineering and R&D excellence, TSL continues to work alongside technical leaders and initiatives such as SMPTE and AMWA to supply eco-systems that are intuitive and powerful across SDI, hybrid and full IP infrastructures.

Advanced Control Systems

TSL’s advanced control systems are protocol agnostic and built on a powerful control engine that takes the efficiency found in automated systems and multiplies it to dramatically reduce production costs and support facility-wide management.

Established in 2007 in Dubai, UAE, 7 Production now has offices in Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Jeddah, Lebanon, Finland and the UK. They required a complete broadcast control system for their 4K OB truck to control all devices, including vision mixer, routers and multiviewers. 7 Production used TallyMan as their main control system, and Tally Management for the OB incorporating all signals and signal chains within the system.

“The system is robust and competitively priced,” says Tony Jabbour, Head of Engineering and Operations at 7 Production, “It is not overly complex compared to other control systems and we have great support from the TSL Team. In addition to this, all our engineers are familiar with TallyMan as we use it in all our remaining OB trucks, making our lives much easier!”

Powerful and Agile Audio Monitoring

Advances in technology enable the creation of ever more exciting content, as well as multiple possibilities for content delivery. Comprehensive audio monitoring tools are simply a ‘must have’ to help guarantee content

quality and quality of service.

Multichannel audio level metre displays, audio loudness measurement and audio metadata monitoring are at the very foundation of what TSL does. However, as technologies evolve, TSL continues to work closely with its customers, developing audio solutions that not only meet their technical challenges but also serve to improve their workflows.

Power Management

Systems managers are increasingly faced with guaranteed up-time targets across diversely located equipment facilities. In today’s cost-conscious and environmentally sensitive world, they may now also be required both to streamline maintenance and support teams, and to minimise energy consumption. These challenges call for a comprehensive solution that – working remotely over wide or local area networks – can provide both monitoring and control of systems, and effective power management.

Sky News Arabia based in Abu Dhabi, delivers ONE channel and the broadcast data centre powering the station output is composed of 88 racks fitted with 250 TSL Intelligent Power Units, the MDU12PMi. They required a comprehensive power monitoring solution to identify any technical and environmental issues before they became serious and impacting the operation of the facility and bringing to a halt the broadcasting of the news channel. The Insite software was installed on a VMWare host, backed up by a cloud copy, and connected to the TSL Power Units over the regular IT network.

The Insite DCIM software can monitor many types of equipment, not just those manufactured by TSL, and in this installation it was also monitoring temperature, input power and online presence. Monitoring dashboards were designed to meet the specific needs of the customer and monitoring individual units, server racks and server rooms, providing clear visibility of the health of the system and providing instantaneous data on any faults occurring which might impact the running of the 24/7/365 TV station.

Support for Emerging Standards

The TSL roadmap includes the full implementation of AMWA’s NMOS IS04, IS05 and IS07 as part of the progression towards IP media workflows. As most equipment manufacturers are beginning to adopt either NMOS and Ember+ as the control standards to support SMPTE ST2022-6 and ST2110, TSL’s adoption of these standards will be included within the eco-system to allow intuitive and powerful control and tally across SDI, hybrid and fully IP infrastructures within a single package.
