Why MU-14 Stands Out

MU-14 sets a new standard in remote production capabilities with the highest M/E count, largest I/O matrix, and deepest EVS channel support in the fleet. It is tailored for the most demanding live events where reliability, flexibility, and production power are critical. Ideal for multi-platform content creation, it serves national sports, international broadcasts, and ultra-high-capacity events with ease.
