Net Insight Enables SIS LIVE to Deliver Live Coverage of Rugby
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stockholm, Sweden - Net Insight, the provider of live, interactive and on-demand
media transport, today announces its selection by SIS LIVE, one of the UK's
leading broadcast connectivity experts, to ensure audiences can experience the
highest-quality live coverage of sports events in the UK. With Net Insight, SIS
LIVE can guarantee efficient and reliable live content with the unrivalled
Quality of Experience (QoE) expected by consumers around the globe.
Live production of high profile sporting events, such as rugby, is resource
intensive. Additionally, traditional OB production limits the amount of live
content that can be effectively delivered to audiences. Net Insight's remote
production solutions remove workflow bottlenecks caused by these challenges,
enabling SIS LIVE to deliver more of the premium live and niche content
audiences demand.
"In working with Net Insight for past live sporting events, we knew they were
the obvious choice to deliver the unrivaled quality we wanted to deliver," said
David Meynell, Managing Director at SIS LIVE. "In a rapidly changing media
environment where the 'consumer is king,' audiences can now rest easy, knowing
they can enjoy reliable and uninterrupted coverage of their favorite sporting
event as the action unfolds."
"We ensure the live and local viewing experiences that earns audience loyalty,"
says Fredrik Tumegård, CEO of Net Insight. "Our continued relationship with SIS
LIVE is an example of how Net Insight is a true industry partner, enabling our
customers to take advantage of new business opportunities and meet future growth
demands from premium services."
SIS LIVE is deploying Net Insight's media transport solution at UK venues to
extend its sporting fibre network to 13 Rugby grounds including Twickenham, the
Millennium Stadium, the Olympic Park and Wembley Stadium, in addition to all
English Premier League Football grounds.
The Nimbra MSRs combine encoding of standard definition, high definition and 4K
content with efficient transport in a small form-factor. The result is dense,
high-quality and low-latency JPEG2000 capabilities built for top-notch media
transport. This offers SIS LIVE's customers the optimum mix of protection
services ranging from no protection to full hitless 1+1 protection, on a per
service basis. SIS LIVE can now provide seamless return feeds for live
interviews and other live content from all event stadia, without fear of
latency, for their customers and at their MediaCityUK hub in Salford.
