In an era of evolving consumption patterns and explosion of new content, broadcasters, content owners and sports rights holders need a connectivity partner that possesses a global footprint, provides scalable, resilient solutions and offers versatile modes of delivery.
Tata Communications’ global contribution and distribution solution is built for enterprises to help them accomplish two main tasks:
- Reduce their capital outlay for technology by providing them with innovative commercial models for media connectivity solutions so that they can focus on content production and acquisition.
- Grow their global footprint by reaching diverse audiences with high-quality content, by creating the most suitable hybrid distribution model that leverages a mix of traditional and cutting-edge options.
Tata Communications’ hybrid contribution and distribution solutions combine our dedicated media-grade fibre network and cutting-edge compressed video transfer over the internet to the last-mile supported by traditional satellite distribution where needed. This overcomes regional distribution challenges, achieves desirable resilience and optimises costs.
Our experience in live contribution also drives remote production services for top sporting brands.
