Friday, October 17, 2014 [Iroquois, Ontario, Canada] – Today, Ross Video announces that MC1, their dedicated Master Control System built to meet the demands of a 24/7 operation, has been chosen by a North American leader in sports entertainment.

At NAB 2014 in Las Vegas, Ross introduced a brand new MC1 hard panel that opened the door to new opportunities and features. The flexibility between using a Touchscreen Control or Hard Panel gives clients the ability to choose the option that best suits their needs.

“We knew we had to up the ante with Master Control to become more accepted in the sports market,” said Eric Goodmurphy, Director of Infrastructure, Ross Video. “MC1 now offers a very modular system design with redundancy and relay protection in the critical paths, on top of the choice between Touchscreen Control or a Hard Panel. We listened to what our customers wanted, we acted on those suggestions and now we are excited that MC1 will be switching some of the world’s biggest sporting events.”
