GMIT GmbH, a subsidiary of the Rohde & Schwarz group since 2010, will be fully integrated into Rohde & Schwarz by the end of January and retroactively to July 1, 2018.

Rohde & Schwarz is following its strategic goal of offering digital products as a service via software based, cloud-enabled solutions from GMIT. The key products, R&S PRISMON audio/video content monitoring and multiviewer solution and R&S RelayCaster IP contribution solution, will be transferred to Rohde & Schwarz and marketed through a broader global service and sales network as well as through a partner network.

"We have been working on this shift towards digital products for some time and now have the right organization to focus more on this market," said Hannes Strobel, vice president Monitoring & Headend.

All GMIT employees will be taken on by Rohde & Schwarz until the integration is completed and will remain the contacts for that product area. All contractual obligations and warranties regarding partners and customers remain in effect.

The R&S RelayCaster IP contribution solution is designed to help ensure the reliable feed and distribution of live A/V content via unmanaged IP networks. The R&S PRISMON monitoring and multiviewer solution for broadcast and streaming media is designed to provide a single platform for automatic, convergent monitoring of media content transported in networks.
