DALLAS—WFMZ-TV, an independent television station in Allentown, Pa. is deploying Black Box’s Emerald DESKVUE receiver in its master control room to enable efficient operator interaction with more than a dozen sources across multiple screens. Emerald DESKVUE simplifies connections to physical, virtual and cloud-based systems within a single personalized workspace, the company said.
"When I saw the Black Box demo of the Emerald DESKVUE at the NAB Show, I immediately thought of all the different places we could use it," said Henry Crush, IT director at WFMZ-TV. "We've been looking forward to getting the system installed here at the station, where we'll use it as a cost- and space-saving replacement for multiple operator stations in master control. If the Emerald DESKVUE works in our environment the way we expect it to, then we'll expand from there and deploy the system in other areas as well. The possibilities are phenomenal."
