For maximum flexibility when broadcasting from a remote location or as a backup to your primary Ethernet connection, connect to the internet using your phone's mobile data!
For tethering simply connect your phone to the USB-C port on the front or rear panel.
In addition to 4G, the new high speed 5G phones are also supported.

USB Webcam Output for Video Software

Built-in Technical Monitoring
Traditional transmitters are essential for broadcast television, but streaming servers are now essential for millions of viewers around the world!
That's why Blackmagic Streaming Encoder includes a built-in technical monitoring output.
The monitor shows video, precise audio levels, progress graphs for codec data rates and cache, a summary of streaming settings and detailed SDI connection information.
The output supports both SDI and HDMI, so you can use an SDI matrix switcher for monitoring from multiple locations in the studio or simply connect to an HDMI television monitor.
