At the 2026 NAB Show, Riedel Communications opens with a clear message to the North American market: production technology does not have to be complex.

This year at NAB, the company is setting the stage for a broader narrative about how modern productions come together. Across video, audio, intercom, networking, and control, Riedel is focused on simplifying infrastructures while strengthening performance, flexibility, and scalability. From camera solutions and broadcast control systems to hybrid SDI-IP processing, wireless intercom, Private 5G, live production, and playout, Riedel delivers an integrated ecosystem designed to streamline workflows across the entire production chain.

Visitors to booth #C4908 will experience major innovations across the MediorNet, Artist, Bolero, StageLink, SimplyLive, and Managed Technology portfolios — including the introduction of hi human interface and Bolero Mini to the U.S. market, as well as the unveiling of the new MediorNet HorizoN ST 2110 MultiViewer App, 1200 Series SmartPanel Commentary Control App, and StageLink NSA008-A Analog audio-to-IP Interface — all designed to reduce operational complexity while enhancing capability.

“NAB 2026 reinforces Riedel’s role as a leading intercom and video innovator in the Americas,” said Joyce Bente, President, Riedel Americas. “Customers aren’t just buying products anymore — they’re investing in platforms that are easy to deploy, scale, and evolve. By unifying control, networking, intercom, and live production, we’re helping them simplify today while building for tomorrow.”

Unified Control and Hybrid Video Infrastructure: hi human interface and MediorNet

At the heart of this story is control with the introduction of hi human interface — a powerful, browser-based, vendor-agnostic control system designed to bring clarity to complex broadcast and AV environments. Platform-independent and intuitive by design, hi enables operators to configure, control, and manage routers, multiviewers, mixers, and third-party SDN controllers through a single, unified workflow tool. Quick to deploy and easy to scale, it supports both baseband and IP infrastructures, integrating seamlessly into Riedel environments so operators can stay focused on production rather than individual components.

This unified control approach is especially powerful in combination with MediorNet, Riedel’s hybrid SDI-IP media network. With its modular architecture and app-based concept, MediorNet continues to evolve alongside changing industry standards and production requirements, uniting decentralized baseband devices such as MediorNet MicroN UHD with the hybrid MediorNet HorizoN platform to enable flexible signal transport, routing, and processing across SDI and IP environments, forming a backbone that is both resilient and adaptable.

At NAB 2026, Riedel will also unveil the new MediorNet HorizoN ST 2110 MultiViewer App, expanding native IP capabilities and reinforcing HorizoN’s role in modern ST 2110-based infrastructures. The company will also highlight its MediorNet FusioN ST 2110-to-Monitor Gateway bundles — compact IP edge-conversion solutions that bridge ST 2110 video, audio, and ancillary data directly to HDMI® and professional SDI monitors. This results in simplified display connectivity in IP-based environments, where complexity is reduced and workflows remain fluid.
