January 31, 2020 – Tustin, CA – Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), the world’s largest Christian television broadcast group with 32 international networks reaching every major continent, recently contracted DigitalGlue  – a leading equipment, integration, and software development provider – for the upgrade of its production and broadcast infrastructure at their Tustin, California world headquarters.

The DigitalGlue engineering team
embarked on an in-depth review of the existing facility infrastructure, helped
define current and future channel requirements and
enhancements while also simplifying overall signal-flow. With
this information, DigitalGlue, then conducted a search of suitable vendors
before presenting our recommendations to senior Trinity management for their
final evaluation and decision
,” said Sean
Busby, DigitalGlue President. The core
component to this upgrade is the production and broadcast routers. After
analyzing multiple vendor options, Trinity/DigitalGlue chose Utah Scientific based
on product quality and their outstanding 10-year warranty and support, which provided the
best system and value offering Trinity the lowest total cost of ownership.

Some of the technical
benefits to TBN’s upgraded workflow are 3G support, MADI audio support,
integrated audio embedding, and de-embedding within the router. The new planned
signal flow and configuration will improve the Network’s overall operational
efficiency. Other manufacturers used for the new infrastructure build-out are Cobalt
distribution amplifiers for monitoring feeds, Bittree patchbays, Blackmagic
Design fiber cards for tie-lines between the Production and Master control
router locations. The new infrastructure upgrade will be completed Q2 of
2020.
