Hybrid XDCAM workflow The XDCAM Station is a professional media station with built-in storage and interfaces for both Professional Disc media and SxS memory cards, enabling hybrid operation in an XDCAM workflow. It features better support for multitasking, networking and other IT operations. Adding the XDCAM Station to an XDCAM workflow makes file-based operation much more convenient and efficient.
