OVERVIEW

Quality distribution anywhere

Historically, broadcasters have distributed content to affiliates primarily using satellite and, more recently, IP networks. Now the industry is approaching the next phase in this transition, which will entail using the 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. With all your content readily available at your fingertips, achieve secure distribution in selected formats to numerous destinations within seconds.

CHALLENGES

Top 3 distribution priorities we support you with

How to distribute live content cost-effectively

For primary live content distribution, satellite was the only available option for many years. While satellite has its 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 can achieve more affordable distribution, including content destined for smaller audiences.

How to achive flexibility to add revenue streams

Broadcasters will increasingly seek solutions combining fiber, internet, and cloud options to address all markets. With a unified solution as their basis, they will be able to launch new channels and services more quickly and cost-effectively than ever before, with more outstanding options to engage audiences and boost advertising revenues.

Content management is one aspect that has become even more critical as the industry moves from satellite to IP. With encoding, transcoding, and decoding as virtual assets in the network, broadcasters gain considerable flexibility for additional and ‘just-in-time’ management of content distribution.

How to ensure reliable, high-quality distribution

One historical challenge of using an open IP network has been securing the distributed content’s reliability and integrity. We can distribute multiple formats from the mezzanine to uncompressed in any transportation (SDI, ASI, RTP, Zixi, RIST, SRT, ST2110, etc.) and encoding format with our flexible solutions. Therefore, Net Insight solutions reduce risk and provide infrastructure resilience for 24/7 distribution.
