Blackmagic Design - ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 20

The ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 20 is a professional control panel with two M/E rows and 20 input buttons per row for selecting video sources and applying transitions. It's used to control Blackmagic Design ATEM series video switchers. Each row can control up to 4 M/E on larger switchers.

It features two independent LCDs, one for each M/E. These displays provide system status information. It includes 8 LCDs for customizable labels and a row select bus.

It also features two power inputs for backup power, and a 4-port Ethernet switch eliminates the need for additional networking equipment, making it ideal for live productions where space is limited.

This panel is especially useful for live productions, television broadcasts, and other situations where precise, fast control of video switchers is needed.
