LiveU collaboration with Sony
September 25, 2025
LiveU, a specialist in video-over-bonded-IP transmission, has announced a partnership with Sony Corporation. Through this collaboration, LiveU aims to maximise the credibility, efficiency, and immediacy of customers’ content by providing tools that enable agile news and production workflows.
At IBC2025, Sony introduced the LiveU TX1, a compact field transmission unit designed specifically for Sony’s professional camera range and workflow. LiveU says this collaboration will create new possibilities for customers across the broadcast industry by expanding adoption of the LRT (LiveU Resilient Transport) protocol.
The compact LiveU TX1 provides broadcast professionals with access to ultra-fast file transfer from the camera to the unit, with stored files transmitted via LiveU’s patented LRT protocol. TX1 was developed by LiveU under the collaborative partnership to provide seamless integration into Sony’s ecosystem. With its small form factor, LiveU TX1 is easily mounted on Sony’s camera, shortening production workflows. This development marks the initial milestone in a partnership between Sony and LiveU, featuring LiveU’s first fully native, dedicated integration gateway.
“Our customers want to be able to deliver files shot on camcorders from wherever the story takes them, back to their galleries, easily, swiftly and reliably,” said Masakazu Murata, Head of Media Solutions Business, Sony Corporation. “Through our collaboration with LiveU, the leading company in video-over-bonded-IP transmission, we are now able to offer customers a workflow integrated with Sony’s ecosystem even for mission-critical operations that require bonding. We look forward to working with LiveU to further streamline workflows and make a significant contribution to the broadcast industry.”
Samuel Wasserman, CEO and Co-founder of LiveU, added: “We are proud to announce this important collaboration with Sony, the global leader in electronics, gaming, entertainment, and imaging technologies. This partnership represents a strong vote of confidence in LiveU’s cutting-edge technology and the innovation we bring – and will continue to bring – to the market. I would like to thank the Sony team for their professional and collaborative spirit and wish us all great success on our shared journey.”
