MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems is set to introduce significant advancements in audio transport and monitoring at InfoComm 2026. The company's highlight for the event is the introduction of the VersaFrame VF-9100 fiber transport platform to the AV industry.
This marks the platform's first appearance before professional AV audiences, following its initial introduction to the broadcast sector at NAB Show 2026. The VF-9100 arrives with enhanced capabilities that extend beyond traditional video signal transport, featuring a robust hardware controller with RESTful API support for seamless third-party integration.
Expanded Functionality and Design
The VF-9100 showcases several upgrades, including a redesigned chassis with improved card guides for easier field servicing, and enhanced rack-mount options suitable for flypack deployments.
The addition of powerful internal power supplies further augments its utility, supporting new transport modules across audio, serial data, GPIO, and genlock/timecode. This enhancement extends the VF-9100's role as a versatile signal transport platform, capable of conveying two AES audio pairs or four channels of analog audio per-VFC card over fiber.
Comprehensive Signal Transport Platform

With support for CWDM multiplexing, the VF-9100 allows audio to seamlessly accompany video, data, and other signals over a shared fiber infrastructure.
The platform integrates 1GbE & 10GbE connectivity, accommodating IP audio workflows with support for Dante and AES67 transport standards. Jesse Foster, Director of Strategic Accounts and Products for MultiDyne, remarked, "Audio is becoming increasingly important within converged AV and broadcast environments, and our customers need flexible ways to move, monitor and manage those signals across modern infrastructures."
Advancements in Audio Monitoring
MultiDyne also introduces the Crescendo platform, designed to offer advanced confidence monitoring and analysis for both traditional and IP-based audio environments. Its flagship model, the C16-AM-12G, offers 12G-SDI audio monitoring along with optional Dante and SMPTE ST 2110-30 connectivity, enabling operators to manage audio-over-IP and conventional signal paths simultaneously.
Crescendo is engineered for broadcast-quality performance in a compact 1RU format, providing dynamic range audio monitoring and seamless integration with control environments like Ross Dashboard.
Synergy in Live Event Productions
Combined, the VF-9100 and Crescendo platforms deliver AV professionals a comprehensive solution for signal transport, distribution, and confidence monitoring across both traditional and IP infrastructures.
InfoComm 2026 attendees can view these systems at the MultiDyne booth, where company specialists will demonstrate their collaborative functionality in modern AV, broadcast, and live event production settings.
MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Systems will showcase complementary innovations for audio transport and monitoring at InfoComm, highlighted by the AV industry launch of its VersaFrame VF-9100 fiber transport platform and InfoComm debut of its Crescendo audio monitoring system.
Introduced to the broadcast market at NAB Show 2026, the VF-9100 makes its first appearance before the professional AV community at InfoComm with expanded functionality that extends beyond traditional video signal transport. New enhancements include a hardware controller with RESTful API support for advanced third-party integration, a redesigned chassis with improved card guides for easier field servicing, enhanced rack-mount options for flypack deployments, and more powerful internal power supplies.
Signal transport platform
The new power supplies also add support for new transport modules across audio, serial data, GPIO and genlock/timecode, which expanding the VF-9100’s role into a comprehensive signal transport platform. The VF-9100 transports up to two AES audio pairs or four channels of analog audio over fiber per-VFC card, with support for CWDM multiplexing that allows audio to travel alongside video, data and other signals over a shared fiber infrastructure. The platform's integrated 1GbE & 10GbE connectivity also supports IP audio workflows, including Dante and AES67 transport.
"Audio is becoming increasingly important within converged AV and broadcast environments, and our customers need flexible ways to move, monitor and manage those signals across modern infrastructures," said Jesse Foster, Director of Strategic Accounts and Products for MultiDyne. "The VF-9100 extends our proven transport capabilities beyond video, supporting analog, AES and IP-based audio workflows, while Crescendo provides operators with the confidence monitoring tools they need to ensure signal integrity from source to destination."
IP-based audio environments
At the receiving end of those workflows, MultiDyne's Crescendo platform provides advanced confidence monitoring and analysis across traditional and IP-based audio environments.
The flagship C16-AM-12G supports 12G-SDI audio monitoring with optional Dante and SMPTE ST 2110-30 connectivity, allowing operators to simultaneously monitor audio-over-IP workflows alongside conventional signal paths. Designed for broadcast-quality performance in a compact 1RU footprint, Crescendo delivers full dynamic range audio monitoring, SDI video confidence viewing, channel-by-channel monitoring flexibility and seamless integration with Ross Dashboard control environments.
Live event production environments
Together, the two platforms provide AV professionals with a complete solution that spans signal transport, distribution and confidence monitoring across both traditional and IP-based infrastructures.
Visitors to InfoComm 2026 can see the VF-9100 and Crescendo at the MultiDyne booth, where company specialists will demonstrate how the systems work together to support modern AV, broadcast and live event production environments.
