OVERVIEW

Offer primary distribution anywhere

Historically, broadcasters have distributed content to affiliates primarily using satellite and, more recently, IP networks. Now it is possible to support this transition over your infrastructure, entailing flexibility and availability of the cloud.

The potential of the cloud for primary distribution is huge as content resources can be manipulated, transcoded, and distributed through a seamless infrastructure. Your broadcast customers will request secure distribution in selected formats to numerous destinations – to be achieved within seconds.

CHALLENGES

Top 3 distribution priorities we support you with

Understanding your media customers

Satellite was the only option for primary live content distribution for many years. While satellite has advantages in terms of extended reach, there is a threshold cost associated with channel distribution. Cloud and IP networks have recently started to provide cost-effective alternatives with highly scalable pricing. Consequently, broadcasters want more affordable distributions, including content destined for smaller audiences. The offering needs to fulfill the broadcast quality requirements that vary from OTT channels to large Broadcast network distribution.

How to optimize existing infrastructure

The varying requirements of the broadcast community challenge you to handle both 100G handoffs as well as integration into seamless cloud connections over internet.

Broadcasters seek solutions combining fiber, internet,d cloud options to address all markets. Your offer requires a unified solution so they can launch new channels and services more quickly and cost-effectively with outstanding opportunities to engage their audiences and boost their advertising revenues.

All these services must be provisioned, overcoming packet loss and jitter while providing disaster recovery.

How to ensure integrity and protection for multiple customers

Broadcasters and production companies require multiple customers’ security, protection, and integrity when interconnecting their different playout facilities and affiliates. These connections should also be cost-efficient.

When interconnecting IP-playout locations, managing different IP domains and protecting the other networks from intrusions is essential. This needs to be done for high-bandwidth services with very high requirements, which is difficult when using traditional firewall solutions.
