Outside Broadcast
The freedom to cover the story, wherever it is
The best stories take place outside of the studio. The ability to deliver them quickly, reliably with high-quality, is what engages and retains audiences. LiveU’s EcoSystem of IP-video live production solutions enables journalists and editorial teams to focus on the story, wherever and whenever it breaks, while saving time, effort, and money.
LiveU Reliable Transport (LRT™): Synonym for high-quality live video feeds
LiveU invented the concept of IP-video over bonded cellular to enable high-quality live video feeds to be reliably and easily transported from remote or crowded locations to control rooms. Used daily by 5,000+ content creators worldwide, LiveU Reliable Transport (LRT™) is our IP-video protocol, optimized for cellular bonding and other IP networks and ensuring the highest quality live video transmission with the lowest delay.
Live news coverage made easy with the power of IP
Simply connect your camera or switcher to the LiveU field units and go live! The LiveU unit encodes the video and transmits it over several IP bonded connections (ETH, WiFi, 5G/4G, LEO/GEO Sat etc), creating a high bandwidth, resilient live stream.
This stream is then sent to the control room (physical or cloud-based), where it is decoded by a LiveU physical or virtual server. The feed can be outputted in the required format (SDI, SRT, LRT™, NDI etc) making it simple to ingest into your workflow.
More connections = more reliability
LiveU offers a wide range of field units that differ in their form factor, output options (single/multi-cam) and the maximum number of bonded IP connections. Here are some of the options:
