MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems is set to present its latest innovations in audio transport and monitoring at InfoComm 2026. The event will mark the AV industry introduction of MultiDyne's VersaFrame VF-9100 fiber transport platform, alongside the InfoComm debut of its Crescendo audio monitoring system. Originally launched to the broadcast sector at NAB Show 2026, the VF-9100 now reaches the professional AV community with new capabilities that extend its functionality beyond conventional video signal transport.
The VF-9100's enhancements include a hardware controller featuring RESTful API support, which facilitates advanced third-party system integrations. Its updated chassis is designed for improved field servicing, and it offers new rack-mount options tailored for flypack deployments, along with more robust internal power supplies.
Signal transport platform
The VF-9100's upgraded power supplies enable new transport modules that support audio, serial data, GPIO, and genlock/timecode, evolving its function into a comprehensive signal transport solution. Capable of transporting up to two AES audio pairs or four channels of analogue audio over fibre per VFC card, the platform supports CWDM multiplexing for sending audio alongside video and data over a single fibre infrastructure. With integrated 1GbE and 10GbE connectivity, it also supports IP audio workflows, including Dante and AES67 transport formats.
Jesse Foster, Director of Strategic Accounts and Products for MultiDyne, remarked, "Audio is becoming increasingly important within converged AV and broadcast environments, and our customers need flexible ways to move, monitor and manage those signals across modern infrastructures. The VF-9100 extends our proven transport capabilities beyond video, supporting analogue, AES and IP-based audio workflows, while Crescendo provides operators with the confidence monitoring tools they need to ensure signal integrity from source to destination."
IP-based audio environments
The Crescendo audio monitoring platform enhances confidence monitoring and analysis
The Crescendo audio monitoring platform enhances confidence monitoring and analysis for both traditional and IP-based audio environments.
The C16-AM-12G model offers 12G-SDI audio monitoring with optional Dante and SMPTE ST 2110-30 connectivity, enabling concurrent monitoring of audio-over-IP workflows with standard signal paths. Crescendo provides broadcast-quality performance within a 1RU design, offering full dynamic range audio monitoring, SDI video confidence viewing, and flexible channel-specific monitoring.
Live event production environments
Together, MultiDyne's platforms offer a comprehensive solution for AV professionals, addressing signal transport, distribution, and confidence monitoring across conventional and IP-based architectures.
InfoComm 2026 attendees can explore the functionalities of the VF-9100 and Crescendo at the MultiDyne exhibit, where experts will demonstrate their application in modern AV, broadcast, and live event production settings.
MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems will showcase complementary innovations for audio transport and monitoring at InfoComm, highlighted by the AV industry launch of its VersaFrame VF-9100 fiber transport platform and InfoComm debut of its Crescendo audio monitoring system.
Introduced to the broadcast market at NAB Show 2026, the VF-9100 makes its first appearance before the professional AV community at InfoComm with expanded functionality that extends beyond traditional video signal transport. New enhancements include a hardware controller with RESTful API support for advanced third-party integration, a redesigned chassis with improved card guides for easier field servicing, enhanced rack-mount options for flypack deployments, and more powerful internal power supplies.
Signal transport platform
The new power supplies also add support for new transport modules across audio, serial data, GPIO and genlock/timecode, which expanding the VF-9100’s role into a comprehensive signal transport platform. The VF-9100 transports up to two AES audio pairs or four channels of analog audio over fiber per-VFC card, with support for CWDM multiplexing that allows audio to travel alongside video, data and other signals over a shared fiber infrastructure. The platform's integrated 1GbE & 10GbE connectivity also supports IP audio workflows, including Dante and AES67 transport.
"Audio is becoming increasingly important within converged AV and broadcast environments, and our customers need flexible ways to move, monitor and manage those signals across modern infrastructures," said Jesse Foster, Director of Strategic Accounts and Products for MultiDyne. "The VF-9100 extends our proven transport capabilities beyond video, supporting analogue, AES and IP-based audio workflows, while Crescendo provides operators with the confidence monitoring tools they need to ensure signal integrity from source to destination."
IP-based audio environments
At the receiving end of those workflows, MultiDyne's Crescendo platform provides advanced confidence monitoring and analysis across traditional and IP-based audio environments.
The flagship C16-AM-12G supports 12G-SDI audio monitoring with optional Dante and SMPTE ST 2110-30 connectivity, allowing operators to simultaneously monitor audio-over-IP workflows alongside conventional signal paths. Designed for broadcast-quality performance in a compact 1RU footprint, Crescendo delivers full dynamic range audio monitoring, SDI video confidence viewing, channel-by-channel monitoring flexibility and seamless integration with Ross Dashboard control environments.
Live event production environments
Together, the two platforms provide AV professionals with a complete solution that spans signal transport, distribution and confidence monitoring across both traditional and IP-based infrastructures.
Visitors to InfoComm 2026 can see the VF-9100 and Crescendo at the MultiDyne booth, where company specialists will demonstrate how the systems work together to support modern AV, broadcast and live event production environments.
