LiveU LU900Q Video Transmit Unit with Single-Camera Support
The LiveU LU900Q Video Transmit Unit is a portable broadcast encoder for single-camera live production, remote news, sports, and event coverage. It bonds 5G, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and optional external modem links while LiveU IQ optimizes connectivity, helping crews send reliable HD or 4K video from demanding locations.
Built for field teams that need a LiveU LU900Q transmitter for mobile broadcasting, it supports SDI, HDMI 2.0, IP, and USB sources with H.264/HEVC encoding. Use it as a 5G video transmission unit for ENG crews, PTZ workflows, drone feeds, houses of worship, and live event production.
Native LiveU IQ, LiveU Reliable Transport, adaptive bit rate, forward error correction, and accurate GPS location support professional contribution workflows. The ProShell backpack adds RF shielding, extra compartments, and up to seven hours of power, while LiveU Central and Control+ keep monitoring and setup accessible in the field.
