Customer Story · Global Content Delivery
Roberts Communications Network modernised its HEVC encoding and satellite infrastructure with Appear’s X Platform — connecting more than 100 racetracks and remote sites worldwide back to its Las Vegas network operations center.
What Roberts manages end-to-end
Roberts Communications Network selected Appear’s X Platform after competitive proof-of-concept testing. The impact shows up in quality, flexibility and density.
Superior video quality and low latency, proven head-to-head in proof-of-concept testing against strong competition — the reason Appear won the network.
One modular platform spanning internet, fiber and satellite paths, meeting all of Roberts’ redundancy requirements across a global footprint of sites.
High density that let Roberts replace four racks of IRDs at the Las Vegas NOC, cutting power consumption and freeing 3½ racks of data-centre space.
