MEDIA TRANSFER – FAST AND STABLE
Broadcast Network Services (BNS): the exchange platform
for content producers and broadcasters
Live, fast and flexible
With its Broadcast Network Services (BNS) MEDIA BROADCAST offers a
unique media exchange service for you as
a member of the broadcast community.
You can use switched virtual connections
in a very easy way as direct dialing connections to transmit your video, data and
audio signals in just the quality that you
and your customers or partners require.
What makes it unique? More than 150
locations from the media and broadcast
industry are already networked via the
BNS platform and are thus directly
accessible. All BNS customers are listed
in a community address book – so all you
have to do is select your recipients.
The platform
The BNS platform provides you with
connection widths of up to 1 Gbit/s and
allows for spontaneous direct dialing
connections (DDC), booked connections,
cyclic circuits and permanent connections
to DVB, IPTV and streaming platforms.
BNS is flexible enough to adapt to your
needs. You can transmit your content
whenever and wherever you want. This
is a big advantage, especially in postproduction.
Flexible tariff models such as hour
packages or block bookings also offer
you maximum flexibility in production
and provide you with planning security
and cost control.
Secured bandwidths
Secured bandwidths with the utmost
scalability put your transmission of live
broadcast signals onto a stable foundation. This ensures high quality, especially
with spontaneous or cyclic live video
connections between different locations.
