Andy Rayner, Chief Technologist at Nevion explains: “The broadcast industry is experiencing the coming together of broadcast-specific requirements and standard IP networking technology. In particular, live-production needs a very low latency, 100% reliable, high-bandwidth transport of video, audio and data signals across both LANs and WANs. Our joint solution delivers on this.”

As part of the partnership, Nevion’s award winning VideoIPath SDN control has been extended to include support for Arista’s EOS OpenConfig API. This allows VideoIPath to create deterministic connections across IP local and wide area networks, including the redundant paths, as well as to manage bandwidth – ensuring the performance required in live video broadcasting. VideoIPath also controls Nevion’s software-defined media nodes, Virtuosos, which provide the special broadcast media transport and processing capabilities of the overall joint solution.
