This is now the third year running that NASDAQ Australia’s digital media platform has employed the Elemental Live Encoders for live streaming of all key matches at the Australian Open, supplied locally fromQuinto Communications.

Each Elemental Live main and redundant unit is configured for eight discreet SDI or HDSDI input channels, for which each appliance simultaneously processes and streams up to 25 output profiles per channel at various bit rates for delivery to Tennis Australia, formatting live video for any device. As it is software-based it can be integrated into different workflows or adapted to changes in video requirements.
