swXtch.io and Telos Alliance®
Collaborate for Low-Latency Broadcast
Intercom in the Cloud
Companies support real-time global communications for a major global broadcaster and a regional sports
network during live production of a major summer sports event...
swXtch.io, a wholly-owned subsidiary of IEX
Group, Inc., has joined forces with Telos Alliance®
to enable scalable broadcast
intercom in the
cloud at very low latency, providing broadcasters
with the same features, functionality and missioncritical
performance they use within their onprem
environments. swXtch.io's cloudSwXtch
intelligent media network will provide the multicast
connectivity and elasticity
clear,
required to provide
real-time communications across multiple
teams and locations in support of today's largest
global live productions.
The first
live deployment
collaboration took place this
of the technical
summer for a
major sports event. cloudSwXtch provided the
gateway to help live production teams from a
major global broadcaster and a regional sports
network use Telos Infinity's VIP virtual intercom
platform from anywhere on the planet. Telos
Infinity VIP eliminates the traditional
matrix, bringing live
intercom
voice and contribution
audio into the IT backbone without concerns
of exceeding the number of available ports. Its
networked
architecture allows
broadcasters
and content producers to recreate a multipoint
on-prem intercom configuration within a virtual
environment.
cloudSwXtch simplifies the connectivity
Telos Infinity VIP software panels from Europe,
of
North America and elsewhere with the physical
on-prem communications
system, while
essentially eliminating any delays on live voice
communications. The expanse of the virtual panel
architecture will also allow production teams to
better support multi-language broadcasts, which
will include 22 languages throughout Europe.
" cloudSwXtch's multicast switching capabilities,
unavailable in other systems we tested, enables
seamless connectivity in the cloud in ways that
replicate the local
area network
functionality
broadcasters have long relied on when using their
on-prem intercom systems, " said Martin Dyster, VP
of Business Development, Telos Alliance.
" Multicast
connectivity
sharply
reduces
the
network traffic that results in very noticeable delay,
reducing latency from up to 10 seconds to mere
milliseconds and enabling real-time conversation
without clipping and interruption. cloudSwXtch
removes the clunky methodology that we would
otherwise have to employ to make this work in a
far less effective manner, and effectively positions
Telos Infinity VIP as a truly enterprise-level virtual
intercom platform. "
swXtch.io and Telos Alliance will continue to
collaborate on cloud
networking ecosystem
initiatives moving forward, with a focus on helping
for TV and radio businesses seamlessly extend onprem
systems to the cloud.
" cloudSwXtch was developed to solve networking
problems for a variety of businesses, and that
includes
mission-critical
Martin Dyster,
Telos Alliance
helping technology
applications
vendors
migrate
with multicast
dependencies to public clouds that lack those
features, " said Brent Yates, CEO, swXtch.io.

swXtch.io brings
advanced capabilities
to
traditional cloud networking environments
that have the potential to revolutionize cloud
networking through its innovative multicasting
solution. The groundbreaking cloudSwXtch
technology adds feature-rich, high-performance
networking to cloud or edge deployments and
unlocks missing network features that are required
for
demanding, high-throughput
workflows.
cloudSwXtch solves these technical issues without
requiring code changes and offers a simple path
to create reliable networks in the cloud. swXtch.
io is a wholly owned subsidiary of IEX Group, Inc.

that
" Telos Infinity VIP requires multicast to ensure
large numbers
of
camera techs, field
producers, technical directors, and on-air talent
can clearly listen to each other, get instructions
and communicate as needed in dynamic, fastpaced
production environments for sports and
other live broadcasts. Working closely with the
innovators at Telos Alliance, cloudSwXtch has
made truly scalable, enterprise-level, broadcastquality
intercom in the cloud a reality for the first
time. "
