This acquisition allows Rohde & Schwarz to focus on its core activities in testing and measurement, technology systems and networks, and cybersecurity. The acquisition is expected to close in 2025 and is subject to customary closing conditions.

This strategic acquisition allows Imagine to expand its live production ecosystem and broadcast offering by integrating Pixel Power's anywhere, software-defined platforms.

The addition of Pixel Power's PRISMON multiviewer, which offers master and cloud control capabilities, will complement Imagine's SNP Multiviewer's ultra-low latency production capabilities and enable Imagine to offer a portfolio of IP and hybrid IP multiviewer solutions.

With a development team based in Cambridge, England, Pixel Power has a rich track record in graphics and playback workflows, as well as advanced multiviewer and monitoring systems. Imagine will retain the Cambridge facilities, combine Pixel Power's existing support with Imagine's renowned service and support team, and provide full support to all current customers worldwide and the installed base of Pixel Power's PRISMON, Gallium, and StreamMaster platforms.

“We are proud of Pixel Power’s achievements and confident that Imagine is the right place for its continued growth and expansion,” said Thorsten Sauer, CEO of Pixel Power and Vice President of Multimedia Solutions at Rohde & Schwarz. “This move allows us to focus more deeply on our core operations and customer base, while ensuring that we are handing the reins to a new owner who cares deeply about our customers and will take the business to the next level.”.

“We are thrilled to welcome the talented Pixel Power team to the Imagine family,” said John Mailhot, senior vice president of product management at Imagine Communications. “This acquisition enhances our ability to deliver innovative, business-driving solutions to our customers, and we are proud to continue building on the strong foundation established by Rohde & Schwarz.”.

“This alignment not only opens up exciting new opportunities to expand our innovation, but also ensures that customers benefit from more customized solutions, better support, and a stronger foundation for workflow evolution,” added James Gilbert, Deputy General Manager of Pixel Power. “Our team is excited about the possibilities ahead and ready to help shape the next chapter of broadcast technology.”.
