Pebble demonstrates partnerships, performance and future-ready playout at NAB Show

Pebble, the leading automation, content management and integrated channel specialist, is bringing its feature-rich solutions to NAB Show (booth W2725, Las Vegas Convention Centre, 19 – 22 April 2026). The continuing development of its software platforms is driven by customer engagement and the evolving needs of the media industry.

“What we hear consistently from our users, and through our involvement in bodies like DPP, is an industry focused on doing more with less - without compromising on efficiency, security or reliability. That's not a new challenge for broadcasters, but the pressure has sharpened considerably. Pebble exists to help organisations navigate that - with systems that perform under demanding conditions and can adapt as requirements change.”

Building on close to 30 years’ experience in the field, Pebble now delivers highly tailored solutions, at any scale from a single channel to the largest multi-tenanted facility. These solutions are built upon three core elements. Pebble Automation is the control and intelligence layer, equally at home in rich best-of-breed architectures or those using Pebble Integrated Channel, the powerful all-in-one platform that is the second part of the trilogy. Reflecting the growing demand for multi-site working and remote access for monitoring and management, the third element is Pebble Remote, enabling authorised users anywhere in the world to access systems securely via a web browser.

Using flexible implementations of these core elements, Pebble builds architectures to precisely match user requirements. It is equally at home in SDI, SMPTE ST2110, NDI and hybrid environments, in a single control centre or with multiple access points and cloud connectivity.

A key factor in Pebble’s continuing development lies in its involvement in cross-industry initiatives like the JT-DMF: the EBU/AMWA Joint Taskforce on Dynamic Media Facilities. To continue achieving seamless interworking across complex and virtualised media infrastructures, it is vital for all the key players, including Pebble, to contribute knowledge and experience to reach the optimum standards and solutions.

“Our goals today are what they have always been. Partnerships first - we're in this for the long term, and so are our customers. Beyond that, we're very conscious that nobody yet knows exactly where this industry is heading in terms of architecture, virtualisation, cloud or AI. Our job is to make sure that wherever it goes, our customers aren't left behind.

“Live broadcast is increasingly built around high-value content, and the expectations around reliability and monetisation reflect that,” Mayhead explained. “Broadcasters can't afford failures, and they can't afford systems that can't respond when commercial strategies shift. Add to that the very real demands around cybersecurity, and you start to understand why our customers value a partner who has been working through these challenges for as long as we have. We're looking forward to those conversations at NAB.”
