Attention production infrastructure architects: After two years online, the EBU Network Technology Seminar (14-15 June, Geneva) is back and finally open for physical attendance again! Join us for a packed programme, a keynote session featuring 3 C-level industry leaders, and networking with the who's who in the world of IP, cloud and hybrid production technology.
The EBU takes part in the Horizon 20202 project 5G-RECORDS, alongside Ericsson, BBC, TV2 Denmark, Rai, and a number of other partners. 5G RECORDS explores the feasibility of live media production over a 5G network, with the aim to bring new opportunities for producing TV shows or news coverage wirelessly and remotely, or in situations that require using as few cables as possible.
A 5G Broadcast signal transmitted the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in high quality from sites in 4 European cities simultaneously. For now, only a select group of users with 5G Broadcast-enabled smartphones was able to see these transmissions. The aim is to change that, and to demonstrate, with those transmissions, the value this technology could bring to the media and millions of audience members.
