Network Engineering

Most of a stream's stability comes down to the network. We handle it end to end — segment design, high-density Wi-Fi, failover — so the signal holds when it matters most.

High-density Wi-Fi access points deployed at an event venue

A Stable Signal Is Designed, Not Hoped For

Pictured are access points we installed at an event venue. Placement, coverage and channel allocation all have to be planned around the building — it isn't a matter of plugging them in.

  • Access point count and placement calculated from the floor area and expected headcount
  • Crew and guest networks kept separate so neither interferes with the other
  • Mobile data takes over automatically if the primary line falters — the stream keeps running

Why It Matters

Why a Video Team Should Own the Network

Most live-stream failures come down to the network, not the cameras. With one team responsible, nobody has to work out whose fault it is when something goes wrong.

One party accountable

One team owns both video and network, so nobody is left arguing over whose fault it is.

Bandwidth sized to the job

Bandwidth calculated from camera count, stream bitrate and number of platforms — no overspending, no gambling.

Dual-Path Redundancy

The primary line plus automatic 4G failover means a single point of failure never takes the stream down.

Network Planning Starts With the Venue

The venue, expected headcount, streaming platforms and existing network are what we base the bandwidth and failover plan on.
