NEEDS
What the show demands
A build-up window measured in hours, in a venue that changes with every date on the tour. Production, broadcast, ticketing, merchandising, backstage and artist parties all want connectivity, and all want it now.
CONCERTS · FESTIVALS · SPORT · CORPORATE · INTERNATIONAL PRODUCTIONS
Same standards. Very different problems.
A festival field and a corporate summit both need a network that does not fail, but almost nothing else about them is alike. Here is what each kind of event actually demands, and what we deploy to meet it.
SEG-01 · Concerts
One night, one chance, no rehearsal for the network.
Tours and single shows compress build-up, doors, show and load-out into hours. The network arrives with the trucks and leaves with them.
DEPLOY
What we deploy
A repeatable rack and topology that lands the same way in every venue, bonded mobile where fixed lines cannot be provisioned in time, and segregated networks so ticketing and merchandising never share a queue with production.
ON THE DAY
On the day
Doors is the load test: thousands of phones associate within minutes while ticket scanners must keep answering. We hold capacity for the gates, and the temporary NOC watches the show from soundcheck to load-out.
SEG-02 · Festivals
Building a small city, then removing every trace of it.
Multi-stage, multi-day sites in fields and car parks: no ducts, no risers, no incumbent infrastructure. Everything is ours to bring, power and survey.
NEEDS
What the site demands
Wide-area coverage across a footprint with no existing network, dense pockets at stages and gates, generator power, weather, and a crowd that moves as one between acts. Days of continuous operation, not hours.
DEPLOY
What we deploy
Temporary fibre and point-to-point links across the site, weather-rated enclosures, redundant uplinks from more than one direction, and high-density Wi-Fi at the points that matter — stages, gates, bars, production and medical.
ON THE DAY
Across the days
Load follows the line-up: capacity shifts stage to stage as the crowd does. We keep cashless payment, access control and safety-critical traffic isolated from everything else, and clear the site completely at teardown.
SEG-03 · Sport
The one segment where the clock is not yours.
Stadiums, arenas and circuits: the contribution feed leaves the venue at a time set by the competition, and nothing about that time is negotiable.
NEEDS
What the competition demands
Contribution paths to rights holders, press and commentary positions, host broadcast interfaces, venue Wi-Fi for accredited media and public, and a crowded RF environment shared with broadcasters, teams, security and the venue itself.
DEPLOY
What we deploy
Primary and diverse contribution over temporary fibre, SMPTE ST 2110 and JPEG XS workflows into the MCR, private 5G for wireless cameras and telemetry, and RF coordination agreed with everyone else holding a licence on site.
ON THE DAY
From kick-off
Failover is proved during build-up, not attempted live. The temporary NOC holds the escalation matrix agreed with host broadcast and venue operations, so a path change is a decision someone already made on paper.
SEG-04 · Corporate events
Smaller audience. Far less tolerance for a visible failure.
Conventions, product launches, shareholder meetings and summits: the room is not large, but the reputational cost of a dropped stream is.
NEEDS
What the business demands
Confidential material on stage before it is public, delegates joining remotely, an IT department with its own security policy, and a venue whose house network was never designed for either.
DEPLOY
What we deploy
A network independent of the venue's, segregated per audience — stage, staff, delegates, press, guests — with access control, hardened devices and streaming on a diverse backup path. Run under our ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified information security management system.
ON THE DAY
In the room
Engineers on site for the whole session, working to your IT and security teams rather than around them, with a documented design your auditors can read afterwards.
SEG-05 · International productions
Where the rules change at every border.
Cross-border shoots and travelling productions: the design has to survive different spectrum regimes, different carriers and different customs regulations without being redesigned each time.
NEEDS
What travelling demands
Spectrum authorised under a different national regime at each stop, equipment crossing borders on schedule, local carriers with local lead times, and a production team that should not have to learn any of it.
DEPLOY
What we deploy
One reference design travelling with the production, adapted locally where the regulation requires it: spectrum applications handled per country, equipment logistics and carnets coordinated, local carriers and crews contracted by us.
ON THE DAY
At every stop
The same topology, the same naming, the same escalation matrix in every location — so your engineers recognise the network wherever the production lands, and one contract covers the whole route.
SEG-06 · What never changes
The segment changes. The engineering does not.
Whatever the event, the same four commitments hold — they are the reason a design travels from one segment to another without being reinvented.
ONE
One accountable team
Survey, design, build, operate and decommission under a single contract — no gap between suppliers for a problem to fall into.
DUAL
Redundant by design
Independent paths with automatic failover, exercised during build-up so the backup is a tested fact rather than a line in the design.
APART
Segregated traffic
Broadcast, operations, corporate and guest traffic separated by design, in a stadium exactly as in a conference room.
ISO
Certified operations
ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 — the same certified management systems behind every segment on this page.
