Pro-Quality Production Essentials

The Datavideo SE-2600 is a versatile and powerful 8-input live production switcher designed for the demands of high-definition broadcasting. Supporting full 1080p/60 (3G) resolution, it provides a balanced mix of 4x 3G-SDI and 4x HDMI inputs, making it the ideal centerpiece for medium-scale live events such as e-sports, sports competitions, and concerts. With its professional 10-bit processing and support for YUV 4:2:2 and RGB 4:4:4 color spaces, the SE-2600 ensures vibrant, lifelike images that meet meticulous broadcast standards.

Advanced Layering and Visual Effects

Despite its compact size, the SE-2600 is packed with high-end creative tools. It features 4 Upstream Keyers for chroma, luma, and linear keys, alongside 2 Downstream Keyers for clean title and logo overlays. Operators can deploy up to 4 simultaneous PiP windows, each with fully adjustable 3D borders, to create dynamic multi-source layouts. The inclusion of FlexSource technology allows for an additional layer of image composition, giving you the creative power of a much larger switcher at a fraction of the complexity.

Seamless Virtual Studio Integration

Transform any space into a professional studio using the 4 built-in chromakeyers and 50 pre-saved virtual set backgrounds. The unique "Key Tie" functionality allows you to synchronize key layers with primary transitions, ensuring that your graphics and backgrounds move in perfect harmony. For high-energy broadcasts, the SE-2600 also supports custom Stinger transitions and animated logos, allowing you to import your own branding assets to deliver a unique and polished viewer experience.

Engineered for Efficiency and Reliability

The SE-2600 is designed for rapid deployment, whether in a fixed studio or an outdoor broadcast (OB) van. The main unit is easily mountable in a standard 19-inch rack, while the control interface features intuitive physical buttons for reliable tactile feedback. With Crosspoint Assignment (XPT), you can reroute each physical input to any button on the fly, eliminating the need for manual cable swapping. Furthermore, its plug-and-play HDMI interface allows for direct laptop connection for titles and media without the need for additional drivers or converters.
