The broadcasting production workflow has changed: now instead of deploying an outside broadcasting truck with a full production team and equipment to a site, live camera signals can now be transmitted to a remote facility for production.

To enable this, live broadcast companies need a stable and reliable internet connection with redundancy options. Moreover, oftentimes live broadcasting demands solutions that can ensure seamless connectivity in remote locations and changing environments.

Adapt Media Services Workflows and Remote Production

 

Challenges in Ensuring Reliable Connectivity for Live Broadcasting

Adapt Media Services faced a complex challenge: ensuring seamless and reliable connectivity across multiple countries, for diverse clients and broadcast requirements. ​

The nature of their work implies that their teams and equipment need to operate in various environments, including crowded venues like stadiums where network congestion is common. It can seriously affect broadcasting devices that use public networks, as many people do personal video streaming or send pictures, also using the uplink, as well as other broadcaster’s crews. ​

The necessity for high-priority, uninterrupted connectivity was paramount to deliver consistent service quality, regardless of location. Global coverage is critical for broadcasting companies that expand their operations across different regions and countries.

As devices can lose connectivity when out of network’s reach, it is important that they are able to use multiple networks. However, this means contracting with multiple mobile operators in different countries, which is complex and can be costly both in terms of time and expenses. ​

Challenges:

  • Diverse clients and broadcast requirements
  • Operations across multiple countries
  • Various environments, including crowded venues with network congestion
