LiveU Announces Expanded Collaboration With Sony, Adding Direct File Workflow Integration

LiveU has announced a significant expansion of its collaboration with Sony Corporation, introducing integrated support for Sony’s file-based workflow solutions across the LiveU EcoSystem.

LiveU will offer the Sony RXS Connection License as part of its portfolio, enabling direct file transfer from compatible Sony cameras to its PWA-RXS solution via supported LiveU field units, starting with LiveU’s compact LU300S transmission unit. With this license, any supported LiveU unit can be connected to a Sony camera, allowing seamless file transmission into existing production environments while preserving familiar broadcast workflows and extending them with cellular bonding and IP-based newsgathering capabilities. This complements the dedicated LiveU TX1 field transmission unit announced in September 2025 for Sony’s professional camera range and workflow, delivering fast and reliable bonded file transfer directly from the camera. Both solutions will be demonstrated for the first time at LiveU’s booth at the NAB Show in Las Vegas.

The joint solution leverages LiveU's Reliable Transport (LRT™) protocol to provide a solution for broadcasters looking to deliver files from the camera in the field back to the TV station quickly and resiliently.
