Sprolink NeoLIVE R5PRO-S - Professional SDI and HDMI Live Streaming Switcher

The NeoLIVE R5PRO-S is the SDI-equipped variant of Sprolink's NeoLIVE R5PRO series, purpose-built for broadcast professionals who need flexible signal compatibility across modern and legacy camera systems. With two 3G-SDI inputs and two 4K HDMI inputs alongside a versatile fifth channel, the R5PRO-S fits seamlessly into multi-camera productions, houses of worship, live events, and corporate broadcast environments where SDI infrastructure is already in place.

The built-in 5.5-inch screen provides an always-on program and preview monitor without requiring an external display, keeping your production footprint compact. A dedicated hardware RTMP streaming engine handles dual-channel simultaneous streams over Ethernet or Wi-Fi without tying up a laptop, while direct USB recording captures a local backup simultaneously. PTZ joystick control for up to five cameras and a web-based remote control server round out the feature set for unattended or remotely managed productions.

The fifth input channel is a multifunctional port supporting USB media playback, UVC cameras, and optional NDI, SRT, or RTMP network sources, making the R5PRO-S a complete production hub in a single portable unit. Portrait and landscape orientation switching supports vertical-format streaming for social platforms without additional hardware.

Key Features

• Dual 3G-SDI Inputs: Two 3G-SDI inputs accept 1080p/1080i/720p signals from broadcast cameras, routers, and legacy SDI infrastructure, eliminating the need for outboard converters on SDI-based productions.
• Dual 4K HDMI Inputs: Two HDMI 2.0 inputs support up to 3840x2160 (4K) at standard frame rates, providing high-resolution capture from modern cameras, laptops, or presentation sources.
• Built-in 5.5-inch Monitor: The integrated 5.5in touchscreen displays program and multiview preview simultaneously, removing the need for an external confidence monitor on location or in tight spaces.
• Hardware Dual-Channel RTMP Streaming: An onboard hardware streaming engine pushes simultaneous dual RTMP streams over Ethernet (RJ-45) or Wi-Fi without relying on a connected computer, reducing production complexity and failure points.
• PTZ Camera Control and Web Remote: Control up to five PTZ cameras via IP or serial using the built-in joystick with VISCA over IP support, and manage the entire switcher remotely from any browser on the same network through the built-in web control server.
