SIS LIVE To Expand Anylive Network

SIS LIVE has said it is to expand its Anylive fibre network.

The company will unveil further details at IBC 2016, Stand 1.C55. SIS LIVE will also share details of Anylive+ which will extend the capabilities of the Anylive network to include remote production options.

With two teleports and 24/7 network operations centres at SIS LIVE's head office in Milton Keynes and MediaCityUK, extensive, permanently-leased satellite capacity supplements the fibre-based connectivity. The network has been successfully trialled for the production of major, national sporting events, leading to the official launch of the network, and additions are expected to be announced at IBC later this year.

The addition of adaptable Anytime+ services will enable production operations such as gallery functions, vision engineering, and camera operations to be moved back to the familiarity of a broadcaster's base.

Anylive and Anylive+ are supported by specialised in-house connectivity experts who monitor, manage, and maintain the network at all times. Further support is provided in the form of Europe's largest fleet of mobile satellite uplink vehicles.

David Meynell, Managing Director, SIS LIVE, said: "The need for high production values for live events, continues to rise and with them, the costs. That's why the advent of high quality, low latency connectivity over IP like that offered by our Anylive network is an attractive proposition for those who need the power and flexibility of IP-based production for multiplatform delivery.

"Anylive+ is a major initiative that, as we transition from SNG provider to a connectivity service provider, will further extend our reach as the country's fastest growing broadcast media fibre supplier and, in turn, greatly enhance the remote production capabilities of our clients. As ever, we aim to deliver the best, most efficient, and most highly adaptable range of services worldwide."
