Reliable Connectivity for Live Broadcasts

Net Insight is a Swedish technology company specialising in professional media transport and broadcasting network technologies.The company develops hardware and software platforms that enable high-quality video, audio and other media content to be transported reliably across different types of networks, including IP and cloud infrastructure.

Net Insight’s technologies are used in live broadcasting, remote production, television broadcasting, content distribution and cloud-based media processing. One of the key components of the company’s portfolio is the Nimbra platform, designed for the low-latency and highly reliable transport of professional media.

Why Net Insight?

High Reliability

Technologies designed to meet the demanding requirements of professional broadcasting and live production.

Low Latency

Real-time media transport for live broadcasting and remote production.

Open Architecture

The ability to integrate with different standards and third-party technologies.

Scalability

Infrastructure can scale as network and media volumes grow — from 1 Gbps to multiple 100 Gbps.

IP and Cloud Technologies

Software and hardware platforms designed for modern broadcasting infrastructure.

Nimbra — The Core Platform for Media Transport

Nimbra is Net Insight’s professional media transport platform, designed for the transmission of high-quality video and audio across different network infrastructures.

Nimbra platforms combine media processing, transport, network management and monitoring, and can be configured for projects of different scales — from compact devices to high-performance systems designed for data centres.

One of its key advantages is its open approach — Nimbra supports a range of standards and technologies, increasing the ability to integrate with existing infrastructure and third-party equipment.

Live Broadcasting and Remote Production

During live broadcasts, even a minor network disruption can have a significant impact on the viewer experience. This makes low latency, stable connectivity, redundancy mechanisms and continuous monitoring essential for media transport.

Net Insight’s Nimbra technologies are used in live broadcasting and remote production environments, where the reliable transmission of video and audio streams is critical. The platform also enables the synchronisation of media received from different sources, which is particularly important for remote production and multi-location broadcasting.

Media Transport over IP Networks

Traditional broadcasting infrastructure is increasingly moving towards IP technologies. Net Insight’s platforms are designed specifically for this transition and support professional standards such as SMPTE ST 2110, SMPTE 2022-2, SMPTE 2022-6 and SMPTE 2022-7.

This enables video, audio and other media streams to be managed more flexibly within a unified IP infrastructure, while allowing the network to evolve progressively in line with existing requirements and future technologies.

Nimbra Edge — Media Transport in the Cloud

An increasing part of media production and distribution processes is moving to cloud infrastructure.

Nimbra Edge is a cloud-based media transport platform that can be deployed in public, private or hybrid cloud environments. It enables live video streams received from different locations to be connected, managed and transported, while the system can scale according to demand.

Nimbra Edge also supports a range of widely used transport protocols, including RIST, SRT and Zixi,increasing the ability to integrate with existing equipment and infrastructure.

Network Monitoring and Reliability

In professional media transport, it is important not only to transmit the signal but also to understand what is happening within the network in real time.

Net Insight’s technologies provide monitoring of media streams, network conditions and transmission quality. Nimbra Vision and other management tools enable centralised control of network operations and faster detection of potential issues.

Systems also incorporate various redundancy and recovery mechanisms, including automatic failover to a backup connection, helping ensure continuity in critical media transport.

When Live Broadcasts Cannot Afford Disruption

Modern media infrastructure is no longer limited to connectivity between a studio and a broadcasting centre. A live broadcast may originate from a sports venue, concert, event or other remote location and reach the audience through several different networks and technologies.

In this process, reliable media transport, low latency, redundant connectivity and continuous network monitoring are critical..

Net Insight’s technologies are focused on building this infrastructure — from the movement and processing of media to its final delivery.
