Magna Systems & Engineering (Magna) will exhibit at the upcoming ABE Show 2026, taking place 30–31 July at Carriageworks, Eveleigh, Sydney. On Stands 42 and 43, Magna will showcase a complete broadcast workflow ecosystem spanning capture, live production, distribution and monitoring from key technology partners Arkona, Canara, EditShare, Manifold, Open Broadcast Systems (OBE), RTS, TAG Video Systems and Techex.
Magna Systems Group CEO Matthew Clemesha explained, “The ABE Show is a key moment for the A/NZ broadcast community. Every solution on our stands has been chosen because it solves real problems our clients face, whether migrating from SDI to IP, accelerating editorial workflows, reducing live latency or knowing with absolute confidence that your signal is clean. We are demonstrating how these technologies work together as an integrated ecosystem to help broadcasters build facilities that are more efficient, more reliable and ready for whatever comes next.”
Visitors will see live demonstrations of how these integrated solutions address the most pressing challenges currently facing broadcasters including IP migration, ultra-low latency live production, workflow collaboration, remote contribution, signal assurance and multi-format distribution.
Technologies and solutions on Magna’s stands at ABE 2026
The Arkona platform, orchestrated through the Blade Planner UI, demonstrating dense SDI-to-IP conversion with JPEG XS encoding and decoding, eliminating the guesswork from hybrid and full-IP migration.
Canara Lighting premium studio illumination including LED Fresnel and panel fixtures alongside their FLX S24 console reducing power and cooling costs without compromising broadcast-grade colour accuracy.
EditShare unifying post-production with shared storage and media asset management removing the bottlenecks of disconnected workstations and portable drives.
Manifold delivering sub-frame latency processing via FPGA-accelerated COTS hardware, giving live sports and real-time productions uncompromising speed at scalable cost.
Open Broadcast Systems (OBE) bridging uncompressed and compressed streams on standard IT hardware, with native support for ST-2110 and ST-2022-6, enabling lowest-latency edge contribution and REMI workflows without proprietary lock-in.
RTS’ NOMAD DECT wireless beltpack delivering full 16-channel keypanel control with IP65 ruggedisation and seamless roaming; alongside the RVOC hybrid cloud intercom platform connecting distributed crews over encrypted WebRTC from any internet-connected device.
TAG Video Systems providing 360-degree software-defined monitoring across uncompressed, compressed and OTT streams, turning reactive firefighting into proactive quality assurance.
Techex multi-format contribution encoding optimised for broadcast, streaming and social delivery from a single, adaptable pipeline.
For ABE attendees, Magna’s stands offer a rare opportunity to see these best-of-breed technologies operating as an integrated workflow rather than isolated products. Engineers, CTOs and production managers can trace a signal from capture through production, monitoring and distribution understanding exactly where operational gains lie and how each component interoperates.
“What excites me about this lineup,” added Manish Subramanian, Technical Lead at Magna, “is how each partner fills a critical gap in the broadcast chain. Arkona makes IP migration manageable. Manifold brings FPGA performance without proprietary lock-in. TAG gives engineers the visibility they have always needed. EditShare unifies workflows from ingest to archive. Canara transforms studio picture quality while cutting operating costs. OBE, RTS and Techex tie it all together with encoding, communications and distribution that adapt to any requirement. These are not theoretical concepts, we are demonstrating live signal paths that attendees can evaluate for their own facilities.”
With over 50 years of systems integration experience, Magna’s team will be available across both days at ABE to advise on everything from green-field builds and hybrid SDI/IP upgrades to cloud-assisted architectures.
